The lawyer is obviously justifying his asinine opinions of woman and sex through his imbecile arguments that are based his contorted understanding of what he calls Indian culture. Unfortunately, the lawyer is not alone in putting the blame on rape victims (he explicitly mentions that there is no rape without a girl/woman’s consent), his views have been reflected by many of our politicians, policemen and godmen.
This is a more serious concern that despite all the education,exposure and media campaigns, women are still seen in a very demeaning and cruel way in the society which ironically asserts “Yatra Naryastu Pujyante, Ramante Tatra Devata (Where women are worshiped, divinity resides there)”. We, as a society too, have been able to force change this thinking where women are seen as sex-objects, not equal to men and several stupid stereotypes that men creates.
Somewhere I see failure of our education system and social sanctions that have not made people discard these kind of thinking. I wish along with pointing out what is wrong with our society we also start seriously focusing on how to change the situation.
