I dream of a day when I wake up and come across no rape news. In thousand years of patriarchy, masculinity, crime and wars, women have suffered the most. Be it in the form of committing suicide to prove the dignity, or be it keeping their mouth shut under the norms of society. But as everyone claims, we have left it all behind in history. Have we? When in one part of a world woman is standing with her head high among a group of men at the same time in another part of the world a woman is being forced to widen her legs by men. No one could tell the root cause of all these horrific incidents, is it less severe punishment? The problem in upbringing? Or women being not enough proactive at responding?
They say it all starts from a woman when she wears shorts and walks in the old street of Delhi and flaunt her ass. Maybe it doesn’t or maybe we want to get fucked in the middle of the road by a retard minded man because that is our fetish, of course! But then I also wonder what if I am wearing a burka and crossing the same street. Do I feel more secure now? Or could pass by the assholes with no fear of hearing a sexual comment or eve-teasing act by them. The answer to this question is NO. No matter I wear a one-piece, or a fully covered cloth, I still do not possess guts to walk down that lane of monsters. I remember having a conversation with my Father during the lockdown on his remark of Could you fight 10 men in such a situation? No amount of pepper spray or self-defence will help you if you come across 10 such monsters who have no intention other than ripping you apart. I didn’t know how to respond and at that very moment; I felt the helplessness of a woman who couldn't do anything irrespective of her education against sexual violence. India is a country consisting 1000 of unsatisfied horny monsters on almost every lane of city and villages, irrespective of prostitution is legal here. However, 60% of the prostitution industry itself is engaged in human trafficking, leading to a thousand of girls being forced into sex work every year. To conclude there is no paradise for a woman here, certainly not for the ones who are poor enough to not be noticed by any police or authority and for the ones who are carefree enough to roam alone on streets after 12 AM midnight.
I want to tell all the beautiful ladies out there to not fear these men. Do not associate getting…
