Finally it is all the woman's fault! What a pathetic joker you are Ahswari. Worse still you represent all those obscene men who believe women should be completely covered so as not to "entice" them, these same men go home and rape their wives,abuse their children, other the women in the house getting away with anything from rape to incest because women and kids dare not speak of it! What makes you think incest was unknown in India and has been imported? Because no one talks of it? Pedaephilia is rife in India. What a wonderful India! Where are our deep spirituality, our holy thoughts and our traditions? All these fly out of the window when it is convenient to us.
Much of what you say is true re: dowry, sexual repression, but no one forces you to go to the movies, On the one hand you talk of taboos that cause frustration, then you blame western influence. What about putting the blame on the shoulders of the male sex? Surely if the women can control themselves, men can do likewise? I don't see men getting raped by women because they go without shirts on inside and outside the house. The biggest problenm is believing that women are a disposable commodity, at the man's service. That means any man can show his disrespect and violate a woman since he has assumed this to be his right. Unless this changes, we can only keep our eyes open and report immediately all abuse and see that the men responsible are punished severely, put to hard work and publically put to shame.
