"A girl does not get raped for her clothes or provocative acts! She gets raped because someone rapes her!"

The best topic to debate atm.

The first and foremost thing not only for girls but for all is "Our safety  is only in our own hands". If considering rape like cases then I think it is not the matter of clothes but it is the major factor of thoughts and illiteracy. This shows the moral values of individual person. 

I just noticing that indications to sex is everywhere around us... in songs picturized, in movies, in serials, in shows... don't u think this too much focusing on this issue is brainwashing youths mind to keep thinking this way whenever they see a woman infront of them?

^Hey, well..I don't quite agree to what you said :) Yes, Bollywood and tellywood have shown some scenes which are sensual, but when we compare the scenes to what is shown abroad, it is nuthing! My friend's brother studies abroad. At 3AM, girls move around wearing bikinis an no one is even bothered! Then why are girls accused of 'provoking' guys to rape them when they wear decently good clothes(i have never seen someone wearing a bikini and moving around the streets in India!)

secondly, rape is, agreed many a times committed by unemployed/distressed people. However, there are many cases where guys earning well..working for MNCs have committed these crimes!

my views:
India has developed quite a bit in various sectors, then why does it lack socially? Why is STILL the girl blamed? Why does the ruling class come up with such absurd an UNACCEPTABLE statements? Is being a girl the victimns fault? Heck, is it even a FAULT? Why are always girls expected to maintain dignity. Have you ever heard of a guy getting raped? I haven't.

Girls should be careful! - Why? Don't we have a right to live a good life, fearless life like the guys? Coming to the question, who is responsible?

Seeing what is happening in the past few days, for me..its the MINDSET.
The other day, one person(I wont name) said girls should dress carefully. People refused, protested, he was correctly shamed by the media. Great job. But, when I re-think, what comes to my mind is that - according to that man - the mindset of SOME boys is so CHEAP, VULGAR AND LOW, that when he would see a girl in western clothes, he would POUNCE on her, rape her, and what? Murder her?

I hope this is not the case! Men have respect, they have shame, they have dignity..they are RESPONSIBLE. However, if a man thinks that girls are a usable property, akeli ladki-khuli tijori kinds, then he is spineless, shameless and not man enough!

Rapes should be dealt with.strictly in our country. As some say, "Dont teach us what to wear, teach them not to rape."

i'll be back! Lol..

the problem is that for some  men ,women are objects,utility, they don't think of women as human 

I'm tired of writing essays after essays on this topic so I will sum it up in brief. The cause and effect of rape is all to do with mentality. The rapist's animalistic mentality of viewing women as objects and then the society's patriarchal mentality of blaming the victim for it. The crime against women are so prevalent in societies which aren't sexually liberated and unfortunately, ours is one of them. That's all from me. Rest, everyone's come up with very valid points (=
