Are short clothes really responsible for Rape in India?

This has been a debate amongst Indians since ever. People would say things like, 'She was wearing short clothes', 'she wasn't aware of surroundings', 'she went out late at night', etc. But is this really a reason, or is it just a way to say, 'We men have done nothing wrong.' It is high time we understand that it is the insatiability of males that is causing the rise in rape cases.
I was watching a video on Youtube today which showed the results of an experiment conducted in Kolkata. They were asking people if the short clothes really are the reason for rape? You would be surprised yourself after seeing it. I was amazed at narrow mindedness of the populace. And not just men but women also were saying the same thing. How can we be blind to such simple things. Men are the real animal here.

Why should we judge a girl by what she wears? Isn't it supposed to be what you like to wear?
People should start asking these questions to themselves before giving out an opinion on what women should wear. It is men who should change their thinking rather that asking women to change their clothes. And even if you say that women should stop wearing short clothes, what length would you suggest that would not invite a rapist. Those rapists who don't even distinguish between a 5yr old and a 50yr old. Would they really spare a girl because she is wearing the right clothes.

Change yourself people before changing others. Don't ask your daughters to start wearing clothes of right size, ask you sons to behave properly.

Relationships - Complex and yet simple

We are social animals, which means we like to associate with people. From the birth till our death we are influenced by and, most of the times unintentionally, influence others. This contact between 2 people, however brief it may be, where they acknowledge the existence of each other creates a relationship between them. The moment you are born you have your first relationship, with your mother, considered to be the most sacred of all relationships in one's lifetime. You are dependent on her for your survival while she is bound to you by the love of offspring. With this you start to grow up gradually and create many more relationships with other people around you. We can categorize all the relationships formed during one's lifetime into 4:   Family Relationships Friendships Romantic Relationships, and Acquaintanceships   Each relationship has its own dynamic however what all of them have in common is a need of interaction between 2 people. To carry any ...

The Secret of the Nagas (Shiva Trilogy #2)

The Secret of the Nagas by: Amish Tripathi Rating: 4.2/5.0   Today, He is a God.  4000 years ago, He was just a man. The hunt is on. The sinister Naga warrior has killed his friend Brahaspati and now stalks his wife Sati. Shiva, the Tibetan immigrant who is the prophesied destroyer of evil, will not rest till he finds his demonic adversary. His vengeance and the path to evil will lead him to the door of the Nagas, the serpent people. Of that he is certain. The evidence of the malevolent rise of evil is everywhere.
