In what way do you term Maya as Modest.
A woman who has offered an open invitation to a man, exposed her body so that he could inflict all that a man would have done during the rape - in what way is she modest? Then she blows a flying kiss to him as a thank you while she is in the arms of her loving husband - in what way is this modest?
I would say that she has been inciting him all along. Tomorrow if she cries rape why should we call that a deplorable act. She has been asking for it and leading the man all along.
I agree rape is the most repulsive and demeaning act one can resort to. But a woman who clearly invites them upon her does not need any sympathy or support.
But sorry in this instance I don't see it as her modesty being tarnished. Maya has done enough to tarnish her character without the help of others.
Who would visit a Rapist's den armed with a Cricket Bat when she searched high and low to find her Pistol. Maya knew what Samay is after yet, she chose her alliance with him. Sought him out promising favours in kind. Why do we blame the man now?
These are regressive and chauvinistic views. Rape is having sex forcefully and without one's consent. No one invites rape upon oneself. This heinous crime is committed by people who have rape mentality in their minds. A good person will find other ways to punish someone in a lawful manner.
Whatever Maya did she never thought one day Samay would control her and resort to sexual harassment/abuse.
'No' means No. Watch the movie, 'Pink.'
