India is not a country of rapists: German Ambassador to India Michael Steiner

[kadamba-warrior]

It turns out that this is NOT the first instance of this professor rejecting an Indian Applicant because of the "Rape" problem in "India"!

Has German professor denied opportunity to Indian students on more than one occasion citing India’s “rape culture”?

This should at least, rebuke the University clarification that the emails discussed in the OP (2015) were the result of some unpleasant correspondence between the intern and the professor!

I only shudder to think how many such closet racists exist in Europe/West and mainly in Germany. She clearly mentions about "other European female associations" joining her in such practices.

In the beginning I had the noble notion that how India compares with other countries and that we should not be concerned about 'image' issues- just focus on the problem and fix it even if other countries are hypocritically making an issue only around us. But now I'm increasingly seeing that such stereo typing also has nefarious consequences. This event shows their 'fetish' has a dark side.

Do you know now brother, what we were screaming about it all the time?
Ghar ki ladayi,bazaaar mein mat lekar jaao..Once you do that.Many opportunists will come and take advantage of you.
I hope you understand,we want only the best for our Motherland and our People.But you think we are different, it's ok it happens when you live in a Family.
But, i was taught always no matter how much differences you have with your brothers in a Home, if a Outsider comes and tries to take advantage of it, i will always side with my brother and finish the outsider first,so do my brothers.That is called a Bond!That is what American Policy is about, they will disagree on domestic terms" as you and me" but they will agree on foreign policy terms in Unision.They adopted our Model.
I hope you change your attitude from now on and see,we are not your enemies but brothers.We may fight,but still we are the product of this nation called "Bharata Mata".

How the West pit two underprivileged classes, women & non-Westerners, against each other. Suddenly, racist bigotry is OK in the name of feminism, because "all non-Westerners are uncivilized male-chauvinist savages". Yet the very same hypocrites worship "Latin lovers", where violence against women (sexual & otherwise) is far worse than most Asian nations. These supposed "liberal" feminists are so quick to act upon their prejudices without checking the facts. Proof that the "liberal left" of the West is just as bigoted as the "conservative right".

Well, I have been stopped in my life from being unjust or incorrect by others even strangers.
A- I'm man enough to recognize the fact;
B- I wish to thank them for stopping me.

If you don't agree, trying to stay proper, I'd say you are dangerous.


Making it personal will nullify the problem? I fail to see the logic?


Adding religion to the stew? Is that really necessary? What's next : a map of rape by faith?

To be clear :
India does have a rape problem that should be addressed. This does not make it ( India/Bharat ) of lesser value but fighting for pride instead of looking for a solution would. *conditional tense, please notice!*

Other countries may have a worst problem in which case they should follow suite; barring which they are just as much culprits.

That Deutsche teacher was wrong; her ambassador that publicly denounced her and defended India's reputation was right … the rest is either ballyhoo or petty bickering in the face of a major moral problem.

Rape as any debased action is a problem for humanity as a species, Those that try to argue otherwise by including ANY subcategory are at best barking up the wrong tree and at worst part of the problem.

And with this, I'm out of this thread.

Peace out to those that want it, Tay.

You will allowstrangers in your own privacy .Weird
But I dont do that.

so you needed a western certificate?

Reacting to a news report about a professor from Leipzig University refusing internship to an Indian student because of the country's "rape problem", the German Ambassador to India, Michael Steiner, has written to Professor Annette Beck-Sickinger saying that India is not a country of rapists.

In her refusal to the male student, Professor Sickinger of the Institute of Biochemistry had refused the student citing the rape culture in India and had also said that many female professors across Europe were turning down male students from India.

In his letter to Professor Sickinger, Ambassador Steiner wrote:

"It has been brought to my attention that you denied an intemship to a male Indian student, giving "the rape problem in India" as a reason. Let me make it clear at the outset that I strongly object to this.

"The 2012 Nirbhaya rape case has refocused attention on the issue of violence against women. Rape is indeed a serious issue in India as in most countries, including Germany. In India, the Nirbhaya case has triggered a lively honest, sustained and very healthy public debate - a public debate of a quality that wouldn't be possible in many other countries. The Indian Government and Indian civil society organisations are very committed to tackling the issue.

"Yesterday we celebrated International Women's Day at the German Embassy here in Delhi with many local activists including many men. Your oversimplifying and discriminating generalization is an offense to these women and men ardently committed to furthering women empowennent in India; and it is an offense to millions of law-abiding, tolerant, open-minded and hard-working Indians. Let's be clear: India is not a country of rapists.

"I would encourage you to learn more about the diverse, dynamic and fascinating country and the many welcoming and open-minded people of India so that you could conect a simplistic image, which - in my opinion - is particularly unsuitable for a professor and teacher."

Err...that was the original mail. (she's beyond stupid, people in much less important jobs than her know how to hide prejudice better, this is probably more racial prejudice than any concern about rape )



We disagree. The hype on the documentary was created in India first, especially with the rivalry between television channels. They would have moved on to the next topic the next day. The government should have known better. I had said then itself that this would backfire and would certainly not achieve the stated idea of preventing the viewing. Regardless of what you think about the documentary itself, you seriously can't dispute that this has been a PR disaster..

Who created the hype???? Was it not Women NGOs???? Are not most of them Foreign Funded??? What was their purpose of opposing this IIIrd Rated Documentary?????

Was it not CHEAP PUBLICITY STUNT TO ATTRACT ATTENTION TOWARDS A IIIrd RATED DOCUMENTARY???? AND IN PROCESS CREATE PUBLICITY SO THAT PEOPLE CAN GET ATTRACTED TOWARDS IT BOTH IN INDIA AND OUTSIDE INDIA?????????

Who raised the ISSUE OF THIS DOCUMENTARY IN PARLIAMENT??????? WAS IT NOT THE OPPOSITION PARTIES???????? DONT THEY???????

AFTER SO MUCH CONTROVERSY WHAT WAS THE OPTION LEFT WITH THE GOVERNMENT?????

DID'NT BBC SAID "COURT IN INDIA WITHHELD SCREENING OF THIS DOCUMENTARY". DESPITE THIS THEY WENT ALONG SHOWING IT?????????

Who's creating Hue and Cry against "Court Decision to Withheld Documentary"???????? Is it not Jholachhap NGO's and their supporters??????????? Again not they Foreign Funded?????????

Are these Cry Mongers are above "COURT"?????????

AFTER ALL THIS GOVERNMENT HAS TO FACE THE HEAT WEATHER BY BANNING IT OR BY ALLOWING IT'S SCREENING IT.

BUT THE GOVERNMENT HAD NO CHOICE OTHER THEN BANNING IT BECAUSE WHILE FILMING "IT BREACHED MANY LAWS" WHICH NO GOVERNMENT CAN IGNORE".

ITS DUTY OF THE GOVERNMENT TO ABIDE BY THE LAW OF THE LAND.

SUPPOSE GOVERNMENT ALLOWED THE SCREENING OF THE DOCUMENTARY WHAT WOULD BE ITS POSITION IN COURT?????????

WHY PEOPLE LIKE YOU WANT TO FACE THE GOVERNMENT TO FACE THE WRATH OF "COURT", "SOCIETY", "OPPOSITION PARTIES IN PARLIAMENT", "WOMEN NGO's".

ARE YOU PEOPLE NOT PLAYING IN THE HANDS OF WESTERN FOREIGN INTEREST TO MALIGN YOUR OWN GOVERNMENT???????????

PS: DO YOU HAVE THE COPY OF THE "PRESS NOTE OF GOVERNMENT OF INDIA" TO BAN THIS DOCUMENTARY, HELP ME IN FINDING IT. I AM NOT ABLE TO FIND IT.

HERE WE GO JUST READ THE ARTICLE OF "INDIAN EXPRESS" POSTED HERE. HOW MANY LAWS WERE BROKEN AND HOW THIS DOCUMENTARY WAS MADE.

You are his brother only if you a muslim. But did you really think that one post is going to change the mind of a rabid Hindu hater ?

He and his ilk will continue to support western propaganda because it suites his agenda of demonizing Hindus and weaken Hindu rights. He is very clear about who his enemy is, and its not the west.

The funny thing about stereotyping is that it's a two way street.

Only the west stereotype India as backward, while Indians' stereotype the west as all that is good in this world. Not funny at all.

Well, if you take the time to visit western countries then you will see why that is that situation. Try leaving that Ghowshala you graze in once in awhile to see what the rest of the world is up to
