What kind of creature are we men? Is there some genetic problem in us? Is our design flawed? Are we inherently violent? In some places we are blowing people and schools up in name of religion. We are raping women. Then in developed nations we treat them as cheer leaders in skimpy clothes during games where 500 pound buffalos are going after a peanut. We have obliterated cities, we have rammed planes into buildings, we have killed millions in wars, in buses 70 year old men eye a young girl top to bottom (i am witness myself), we are bhais, we get into religious fights and run with sowrds, knives, we are killers, we are murderers, we are rapist, we are discriminators, we are invaders, we are war mongers
Now many will come back and say well we have given this world this and that and thats fine however thats not the point. The point is that when it comes to violence and here violence between genders it is almost one way traffic. We have a pathetic record when it comes to gender issues. So my point is is it possible that we are flawed?
My analysis is that maybe we are a inherently weak. You will often hear this nonsense of well men dont cry, well men are less emotional. Then we have this concept of manliness where sometimes we tolerate violence (done in name of our interests) as a manly feature. In reality we are cowards. I dont care the good that we have done but its of no use if a girl has to wear anti rape underwear to be normal.
I am saddened to read this. I dont think these things will work. I dont think men will suddenly change and start singing songs of joy and love. Therefore there needs to be policing and severe punishments for such crimes.
Your concern is legitimate but not the reason. No it's not a Men women problem. This is a different issue. Take away power and money, 90% of the world's problem will be solved. Now, how does power & money corrupt people and kill their morality, is I'm sure well understood but I'll talk briefly. Without creating thugs by killing their morality, many people can't be powerful or can't earn money...that's the root of all the evils.
These rapists are morality wise dead bodies... They are of no gender. They are criminals. The guy who is sitting at the top of the country from him upto the lower levels of political or criminal leaders in the country, are the creators of these thugs. Unfortunately they are mostly men due to obvious reasons.
But don't forget that, there are many women too, who aide these thugs behind the scene to fulfill their evil desires. A few days back there was a news, matrons of a few orphanages were allowing some men to have sex/rape with underage orphans, for money...
Then there are lots of young boys who are raped by adult men... There are so many of them, try looking for stats even in India, these boys can't even complain, because a med test can't probably prove it as easily as the women can...
I don't like to make it too long, but the point I want to make is that...the people who try to make it a male & female issue, they are just diverting the focus from actual criminals and directing on 3 billion men... That's why this problem isn't being addressed properly. It's not a gender issue, every man isn't a rapist. Neither even close to any reasonable % of men...it's very negligible number of people who are around the power base and money. So the issue really needs to be looked from a completely different POV to solve it. While there are patriarchical issues, but the social crimes & Criminal can't be allowed to hide behind that cloud.
Oh yes, all the wars, killings etc most of the problems of the world are related to power and money. Even the issue of exploiting female body shamelessly, is related to power & money. The world is f**ked up by the way we really are running it. Why there are so much conflicts in ideologies? If the way one wants it to be run is the best, why would that society have problems? Be it Saudi or America.? Unfortunately none of the systems are working perfectly... Everyone needs to realize it and sit down to rethink and revise their own ideologies to get a better result. None can claim that his system is flawless.
Read the concept of Social business being talked about by Bill gates and Younus and many others at this point. That says, the current concepts of capitalism is severely flawed. If only maximizing profit is the aim of a business, then the society will deteriorate by default, because it's then meant to grow sucking the mass population. Why can't the society and it's welfare be an important consideration in every businesses... Capitalism seriously needs to incorporate welfare of the society into it. Otherwise it's giving us a decaying society...and Capitalism is bound to collapse.
Sorry, I have touched a few things only to tell u that ... Please don't make crimes, a male female issue, just because the rapist/criminal is a male. That's a wrong way to look at it. You can't teach morality to a criminal, that's an unattainable way to address the issue. It's the flawed system that runs us that creates these criminals by default. If we are really honest in addressing these issues, it's easier to fix a system, that won't produce these morally destroyed creatures. But only, if the human kind can rise above the thurst for money and power. Don't expect that from human beings anytime soon, this has been the legacy of human kind for thousands of years.
So, we the people need to push for ruthless legislation and it's implementation to stop rapes, which will atleast keep the rate of it lower, while we hope for the society to change, someday.
Oh yes, this idea of an under garments is completely useless & Stupid, if the only purpose is to deter an attaker through electric shock, there are better and smarter handheld devices, which can be much more effective & comfortable than such a massive under garments, which have to wait for a perpetrator to actually press against breast etc...it's troublesome and affects women's psychie on a continuous basis, so detrimental to mental health. I won't approve such ideas, while a smaller device can do a better job. Even hand her a gun to shoot the attacker, that's better than such Rubish underwears.
