Rape problem in India and movies influencing our society - Page 3

Last year the great Supreme Court freed a pedophile and murderer of a 5 year old, shamelessly stating that every sinner has a future. The anguished mother of the child cried that her daughter had a future too. When such institutions are more focused on the rehabilitation of monsters rather than giving the victims justice, how can one expect the numbers to go down? The conviction rates are abysmally low.

Society produces rapists and the so-called justice system repeatedly fails the victims. What's equally disturbing is that these days people outrage and seek justice for the victims only after checking the religions of the victim and the rapist, what state the crime took place in, and which political party is ruling. Yuck!

i think the victim's family should murder that culprit. Then, they should demand 'future' from that judge. It's crazy! How can a judge release such destructive monsters into society? Their duty is to provide justice or injustice to the victim? Don't they feel responsible to protect society from these monsters? Do they really want these monsters to destroy more lives n encourage more potential monsters? Judge should set example for the society by hanging that monster so that crime rate decreases instead of increasing.

Many kids today know wrong and right from movies and one of them is me too. Good touch and bad touch were something I understood from movies. Movies are a reflection of society while crimes existed decades before cinema even existed. Who was to be blamed back then? If r*pe was a concept that took place after the 19th century, this could even be discussed and the movies could be blamed but it existed long before that.

It is a chicken or egg problem.

The reason behind rape often is misogyny and societal double standards, not movies. But the problem is that movies sometimes influence misogyny and societal double standards.

The irony of India is that female sexuality and consensual adult relationships are censored while toxic masculinity and misogyny are ignored because it is entertaining or doesn't depict what society considers taboo.

Depictions of female sexuality help men realize that women have sexual desires that must be considered, and women realize that their desires are valid and can be expressed without shape. Consensual adult relationships and intimacy on screen can model what healthy human relationships are like.

Toxic masculinity and misogyny are a bigger problem because rape may be a sex crime, but it is a crime of power. That is why rape is such a common war crime. It is a way to control people, exert power, and subjugate others. It is used to put women in their place. It is used to punish people for daring to cross a caste/class/race/religion or similar barrier. Men don't rape for sexual pleasure. They could get that from p0rn or pr0stitutes. Serial rapists who get off on rape actually have an element of humiliation, torture, and violence that are not found in healthy relationships. When men start believing they are alpha and can do as they please - rape becomes justified as a means to show off their alpha power.

A man shot his daughter's culprit outside the police station in UP last year and people cheered. That rapist was out on bail. Common people will be forced to take law in their own hands if the system continues to fail them.

The sheer disillusionment with the judiciary is the reason why encounters and bulldozer demolishing is welcomed by the general public. The court proceedings are nothing less than a punishment for those who seek justice. Generations perish while fighting for justice.

bold- good father.

The rule of law is a fundamental principle in any democratic society, and it’s designed to ensure justice and order. However, when people feel that the system is not working efficiently or fairly, it can lead to a loss of faith in these institutions. It’s crucial for the legal system to work towards being more effective and accessible to maintain public trust.

Men do it because they know they will get away with very less punishment or no punishment

They see many ppl done rape and roaming free so more braveness

Even family of rapist support them like nirbhaya rapist

Movies had such rape scene in 1960s-70s by prem chhopra, kanhaiya lal, ranjith and shakti kapoor too

But rapes were less in 60-80s why? Why than men had no braveness unlike last 20 years

Because society and family would boycott such men and law also was implemented faster than now

Ask your grandparents and parents whether in 50s to 80s rape happened it was very rare actually

May be because woman would go less to work too that is reason but still women did go to college or work than too

My neighbours women say at midnight some times they would come alone after college trips or going to some temple festival far off in 70s and 80s no man would dare attack them or do anything till they reach home for 3-5 kms alone or with 1 or 2 friends at mid night

Now let me see in delhi or even mumbai which girl dare walk alone at midnight 3-5kms back home after college bus drops in college or after festival in temple

Because that was 70s and 80s ppl still feared law and society and their own parents or grandparents so did not dare do wrong things easily
