Re: India: Three minor sisters raped,murdered and bodies dumped in well
there you go…i was worried where is diwana jee…
ok lets see …what I have said so far:
-
these are sad news .. huge societal issue!
-
but lets not make it an india bashing session as it wont serve any objective purpose …coz whole subcontinent has rape problem including pakistan
-
I then categorically said that if an indian poster had made similar comments or posted similar thread in the same fashion, my reaction would be exact same .
-
I then confronted couple of hypotheses… which I think I am allowed to… first, i believe that bollywoodization does not necessarily “sexualise” our society to the extent it is causing rapes… at least that is not the primary reason…my rationale is that we dont teach our kids from a very young age how to respect women … we in subcontinent discriminate women at every stage in our social spectrum especially in rural areas…so Bollywood or no Bollywood, subcontinental societies are primarily male dominated and think of women as sexual pleasure tools and lesser creature…unless that social behavior is changed, dont expect rape rate to go down even if you completely ban bollywood
-
i then gave example of Scandinavian countries where media is far more sexual but less rapes …also gave an example of pakistan, where bollywood has less influence than india (as i see it ) but rape is a big problem
-
I disagreed with another observation that the democratic system has anything to do with this mess…and asked if india would have done better on the rape front if it had military rule…did not get any answer so far
these are my opinions and observations … i did not start any name calling or personal attacks … other folks attacked me.. I was just responding in a light manner … and not sure what do you mean by " i got cornered’… there is no war going on here…
but obviously i am the one who is a senseless idiot, an indian apologist who deserves an indian passport, and yeah … requires Valium
