yes, there are problems everywhere. but you and me know well about the kind of girls who would be out at night on the roads at 2 a.m. either it's at new york or mumbai.
the only difference is that MOST indian girls would NOT like to get raped and MOST of the girls in new york would like to have some FUN (new york kinda fun).
"I think new york is any day safe that way for a women too at 2 am in the night." yeah. you are right. but, she may be shot some times as well..
mumbai is surely a safer place in terms of crime when compared to new york.. c'mon !!
