Shame on you

According to me Rape is not just a sexual penetration, by one person with or against another person without the consent of the victim. Rape is a violation of a person, it is the instillation of an atrocious fear in his heart that will always haunt and no matter will in the end, become a part of the person, maybe in the form of anger, guilt, resentment or even self-pity. Rape is wrong, it is not justified and I can never understand how a person could ever want to commit such an act.How could someone ever want to be a monster?
Rape is shame. According to some statistics, only one in 69 rape cases in India are even reported. Only 20 % of those reported result in convictions for the rape accused. How much of courage could a person need to stand in in front of a court and declare how a monster stole away her own body from her? Rape is a disgrace to humanity. It is an insult on the way we think and live and allow ourselves to act.
Provocative clothes are NOT instigation. It is her right and the exercising of her own free will, whatever she wears wherever, an honorable man would do nothing more than respect it. And how could you blame a woman for a man’s heinous act of uncontrollable thirst? It is simply stupid and an unintelligent plea to play the mind-game of whose fault it is, when we all know the truth.
The root of this,I believe is the person’s thinking and what kind of an atmosphere he grew up in. If in a family a girl who wore skirts, ranted about in English or learned to speak out for herself, was frowned upon, that man will never learn to respect a modern woman then.He will carry that thought with him and never learn to respect freedom of will and act.
A woman gets raped every half an hour in India. Then why is it that nothing is being done about it, why is nobody standing up to fight, and to put to shame those people who dared to intimidate someone else for fulfillment of his lust.
Everyone from little girls - six month old children rapes are becoming routine now - to grandmothers are raped. Age is no barrier.
I believe that it is the denial of all of this that is the root cause of trouble. I wish we could all stop saying No, how could that happen and start accepting that something like that just did and it might be too late, so I should get up and speak out, possibly even shout out to make people hear and get justice.
So let us resolve to stand up against this injustice and work together in whatever possible way, but just don’t let this disgraceful act ever die a silent death of shame and intimidation, because then it won’t be a right ending, the monster can’t be the hero now, can he?
