In continuation of my earlier post...
Another gangrape in Delhi, how will we act?
"...The men on the bus taunted the woman for being out at night with a man". When he tried to protect her, they attacked him with an iron rod. The medical student tried to help him, but was beaten and then gang-raped.
- as reported by NDTV.
These men could not tolerate the mere presence of a woman with a man of her choice. They felt that they should attack her, and the man who was with her. For in the society they come from, women are denied personal freedoms and the freedom to move around. Fathers, brothers, uncles think they have the right to use violence over women to get them to do what they want. Domestic and sexual violence is the norm.
But it is okay for them to drink, to take joy rides in a bus, which was supposed to be off the road at that time, rape and maim. They see nothing wrong with that!
What does this say about the mindset of such men? How do we change it?
