I find blaming all men in this open letter unjustified.I can't talk about the whole country but judging the environment I stay in, I feel there is a lot of anger in men too against the rapists but somehow not just men but everybody has just given up. India had never seen a protest like the one that happened during the Nirbhaya incident but what was the result? Was the accused given a harsh punishment?We have seen so many protests but still there's some problem cropping up every time.Even if we protest for harsher punishment like castration, there will be hindrance by human rights groups and the laws written in the constitution.And even if laws are changed, there is always a fear of power being misused,the very reason even euthanasia is not legal in the country. There are so many angles that one needs to see before changing a law that I honestly feel, we have reached a stage where we are a hopeless nation when it comes to safety of women.
Earlier people would ask girls to stay home to be safe, nowadays even your own house is not safe thanks to creepy tuition teachers and pedophiles.
I have immense respect for women,much more than men but sorry, I don't see any solution to the problem of safety of women.We just have to live the way we are living now.Even a pepper spray cannot guarantee safety in a country like India.
