Found
this article, and I don’t think it could’ve been worded better.
The cleaning needs to start from within our household.
It's sad that many are trying to shade the current situation with
religion, politics or feminism. Humanity seems to be missing from the palette. But
we all hope, that when we stop being blinded by these colours, mankind emerges
in a different shade.
The daughter of Sanji Ram was shocked that how could her father, an old
man, be accused of such a heinous crime.
The wife of the Unnao rape case accused, Sangeeta Sengar, met with Uttar
Pradesh’s DGP on Wednesday and demanded a narco-analysis test on her husband as
well as on the woman who has accused him of rape. She said nothing about the victim’s
father who was beaten to death.
There are people who got upset about a holy ‘Devsthan’ being dragged
into a controversy.
Many those that posted articles in retaliation - Muslim men gang-raping
a Hindu woman.
We have all known of that friend who is forever forwarding sexual jokes,
cause sex is the funniest thing.
We have friends who say 90 percent of women get sexually molested as
kids, it’s normal.
But it has to stop being normal.
She was flirting with him, leading him on and then backed out. She had
it coming.
As we’ve seen in Pink, a woman, even after accepting cash, to complete a
sexual service has the right to change her mind. The fight if at all, should be
about returning the money for incomplete services and not on her right of refusal.
Because no matter where you are, who you are or what you’ve done to come this
far, there is always a right of refusal.
Most protests against sexual assault on women turn into nothing but
that. Should we stop mass protesting?
Is sex education the answer? Apparently not, as we’ve seen in the west.
Beta bachao so that beti bachegi.
The Juvenile in the Kathua case will walk free, as did the one in
Nirbhaya’s case.
Did Kathua rape case become a bigger and more intolerable one because
the girl was brutally murdered as against the ones who survive?
Will there ever be a protest to save the married beti who is constantly
savagely raped by her husband?
The cleaning needs to start within. We need to ask ourselves how much
are tolerant with?
How much are we willing to shield ourselves versus identifying the
father, aunt, uncle, cousin who did this?
We have all grown up in households where the victim is grounded to
protect him/her from being molested, while the perverted predators roam free
preying on other unsuspecting pawns.
Let’s start by cleaning our house. Let’s start with not being ashamed.
Let’s start with dialogue.
