Today someone did send me the following article which i wanted to share with me:
Victims Of Abuse
By Mita Kapur
…The incidents are endless and figures show an alarming rise in atrocities against women in India. Every 26 minutes a woman is molested. Every 34 minutes a rape takes place. Every 42 minutes an incident of sexual harassment occurs. And every 93 minutes a woman is burnt alive for dowry. The issue is not only of gender abuse, it is to recognise the right of every individual to exist as a human being and not live as `subordinate sex’. Violence against women is the most persuasive human rights violation in the world today…
you are woman
u tell me thats why i did start the thread
am surprised that so far (may change) very little reaction from female sisters
i really wonder what can be done to stop this
its nice and well to talk about indian entertainment industry (i love indian movies)
but they are only showing fantasy not reality. No wonder that they do that because else no one
will go to the cinema to watch the missery.
But honestly what do you think about this Adeeba please share it wiht us? Did you read the article?
Re: 56 % of women believes that wife beating is justified
The thing is blaming the victim is prevalent in both the sexes. Generally people start blaming the victim as he/she brought it on themselves. They do not understand how the victim is groomed to be at that point. Its easier said then done. I wish people would be more understanding and quit pushing the already tormented victim. There is always mor ethen what meets the eyes
