molestation - Page 8

finally a reasonable response, something i could agree to and feel a little better and not totally guilty.

Im just trying to put myself in your shoes. Its easier to say "go tell someone" than actually doing it and being in the situation. I knew a girl that got raped and it took her well over 6 months to tell someone.

Why cant a guy be a rape victim?

Guys can be raped by other guys or girls.

Of course, but it's the same thing, he/she is a threat to society. He/She shouldn't recieve a major punishment. He should, I guess, spend some time reflecting on what he/she did.

I can't believe some of the posts I am seeing here...are we really sympathizing with rapists simply because they happen to be underaged? 😕 If someone is matured enough to understand what rape is, then I am quite surhe/she should be matured enough to receive the punishment set up for it.

As for saving the family - pray, tell me, if this same person goes on bonking members after members in your family - do you really feel your family would remain "safe"?

I 100% agree with the bold. I would never sympathize with someone who wittingly and willingly commits rape.

However, a lot of times sexual abusers especially minors are victims of sexual abuse themselves. Their sexual abuses blurs the lines of what is appropriate for them. Sometimes they are frightened to speak up or furious and they act out in enactment. There have been several situations where a parent complained that a classmate or friend was inappropriately touching their children or their children felt uncomfortable around them. Upon investigating it was found that these kids who were inappropriately touching others were actually being raped and abused at home. These are very rare and few circumstances where I sympathize with the abuser, because they are unaware of morality and immediate psychiatric help will prevent them from growing up disturbed to become sociopaths.

whether one is genetically prone to molest or acquires the trait from society - its a crime all the same & needs to be punished in order to dissuade him as well as other ppl from repeating the same crime. But unfortunately the crime seems to continue perhaps due to the slowwwww judiciary system in India.

Thats where you go Stabler on people. In SVU detective Stabler tracks a child trafficker to Prague. When he is finally caught the cops in Prague are glad that Stabler is taking the convict to USA for trial and it is being allowed under US jurisdiction. Their own system is too corrupt. However, they welcome Stabler to take advantage of their system. That is beat the living daylights out of the guy. Police brutality, what police brutality. The guy picked a fight with his cellmate.

Although the cop has to be one with integrity like Stabler.

HE IS NOT EVIL.....He is a kid

why is everyone so harsh?

15 is pretty much old enough to know what is wrong and right and what rape is. He is either evil or seriously mentally disturbed. In both cases he needs to be reported immediately, either to prevent him from future abuses or get him the help he needs.

This is not harsh. It is fair. Would you want another person scarred for life? Maybe this 20 year old woman handled it. What if the next victim is devastated and broken over it. Moreover, if he needs psychiatric help why not now when minor records could potentially be expunged if he is rehabilitated or wait till he is an adult and ruin his life in a much worse way by committing abuse as an adult.

Sarina - did you go through the entire thread? What's your take on this:

After going thru the last few pages I can only sympathize with the victim. such incidents R not as uncommon as we wud like to b'liv. Now if the aunt is not a frequent visitor she may choose to avoid meeting that nephew in case she does not feel like confronting him & the issue may end there at least for her.

In India when a boy is beaten up, is used foul languages against, they call it fighting.

When he is sexually assaulted, they call it molested

In India when a girl is beaten up, is used foul language against, or sexually assaulted, they call it molested.

Which molestation are you talking about? The guy one or the girl one?

Go through the last few pages.
