I see initial discussions about Rape and attitudes towards it...
Here is my take...
A country like ours has a really wide array of beliefs, attitudes, knowledge and even common sense.
To the supposed "sensible" information of any kind.. be it the idiot babus talking or what we see on screen or eve what we see and experience on a forum like this.. there is the liberty of using common sense and knowledge to draw conclusions and take decisions on what to do. So to say.. if we se our fav actor smoking on screen... chances are the "sensible" are not gonna get influenced.

But on the other hand.. we cant ignore the fact that there are many who get influenced, who start imitating cause it appears cool to them. So in that context media and entertainment industry can be an influencing factor for many. We may not be able to identify with that but it cant be ignored.

As for attitides.. experience begins at home and attitudes are formed and reinforced from the surrounding. Even a small things like the boy doesnt pick up his plate after eating cause the dad doesnt and the girl is expected to do these things cause society expects a trained aaya by teh time she turns 18 is what may grow up seeing and reconfirming to themselves that it is the way to go... the accepted norm.
So attitudes towards women in all walks of life... begin early... and when one learns to see a woman as an object, someone who is not an equal.. the behaviour towards them will reflect that!! There will be no regard, no respect and no shame for hurting one

I agree Jules, media does leave impressions on people but media is not responsible to be the moral authority around here. Especially when it comes to young kids.

But forget all that...@bold this is the biggest issue. Attitudes of the boys and here is where the real change needs to come. And its not one of those things we can assume a person will eventually pick up...these things become ingrained.

When our young boys are raised seeing that he doesnt have to put his dishes in the sink but his sister gets bitched out for not taking the initiative to wash the dishes, that begins the process.

But then you have rape that is so common in western countries where women are more open to live how they want to live, with less emphasis on roles of each sex. Here is where I say rape isnt only a cultural thing but its just the way people are now...its a degradation of humans. And thats just the way things are going, I dont see this shit getting better.

But I am a pessimist, what to do.

@ Mehak...
Rape is not a cultural thing... its a physical need more primitive in the male gender that needs to be attended to. And why they do it can have a cultural reasoning or a behavioural or psychological issue.

But the respect and sensitivity towards women in those men will be low of non existent irrespective of any country its happening it.
Its not like every man in the western world respects and holds his female counter part in high esteem. The stereotypes exist everywhere... but in cultures like ours... its not just the wrng value systems that facilitate such attitudes but even religion is twisted to support it.

And ya.. its not an over night change that can happen... people's perceptions and attitdes need a 360 degree change and the fear of law and law makers need to be ingrained. When I know I can get away with any crime.. it becomes a thrill of doing something and just getting away with it. Its a ego boost

As for attitude shift.. it will mainly lie on the women's shoulders how they bring up their boys!! Unfortunately in a lot of homes...this gender difference is facilitated by the women
