A Scary Crime Called Rape

There is much being said about rape and everyone has an opinion. A fact that one cannot dispute is the trauma that a victim has to face for the rest of her life. No matter what the case may be she is often ostracized for no fault of hers. Many a time people find themselves pregnant after this heinous crime and have to face nine months of hell. What do they do, should they love the child whose parent they loathe, give the child up for adoption or face shame in a public domain? I am not endorsing abortion here, this is not the case. All I say is while the child growing in the womb is innocent, the lady or young girl has to face pressure for a crime that was committed on her. There are plenty of people who endorse that this is an act of God. But that is not at all right because God does not encourage filth! This is encouraged by the evil one. God however, does not like the idea of getting rid of an innocent child. Having said this however, what does a victim do in such circumstances? Have the child or not?

Having to move on after a hate crime is the worst thing possible. There is no one out there who can stand and testify to your situation. We have people in public spaces who do not think twice about citing reasons that the woman is to blame. Pray then, what can you say - you people of such ‘good character’ to the criminals who rape babies, young children and senior citizens? The death penalty is being promoted by many and to others castration and to many more a harsh life sentence for rapists. The bottom line is a rapist is a menace to society. We hear that many of the people who commit the crimes are not registered offenders. That is a fact isn’t it? They get away with their crimes because women or kids are scared to report the crime. The children don’t even know what has happened! There are many reasons (some say) that encourages men to go out there to do the sick deed. Vulgar content in songs, porn, movies with ridiculous themes, skimpy shows, etc., have been considered to egg sickos on. Is this a fact or does it stem from a deep rooted problem with certain men? It is high time people rejoice at the birth of a baby girl instead of cursing her. The mindset must be changed by everyone irrespective of caste, gender, religion, class and geographical area.

Being scared to go out in case something happens is in the mind of many girls and women today. And with cases being reported every day one will think twice before venturing out. We hope and pray that stricter laws will work for the fairer sex in our motherland. We the women of the nation hope that people will take us seriously and implement a law that brings the culprits to book. In sum, when they commit the crime, they just have to do the time. Plain and simple!

it is a painful issue to discuss ~~ only reflects the animistic society that we had created with all our education.. and technology ~~ unless individuals change and transform ~~ mass consciousness cannot change, was mentioning to someone recently.. Upbringing is at fault.. parents have to be blamed by and large to have brought up animals instead of children / youth ~~ Mothers are to take a responsible role in bringing up their siblings.. as she is the first one who the child is in touch with as it enters into this world of trauma ~~ time for change !!
Cannot agree with you more Manuel.

In the Bloghouse

Pssssssssst I have a secret that I wanna share with you… I have been diagnosed with an illness called FIMS aka Foot In Mouth Syndrome. I’ve tried many times to get over this, with mind-over-matter techniques, herbal remedies and even self awareness classes online, but to no avail. Trying to soothe a friend who was dumped by some loser dude I listened to her rant and rave about his meanness for some time and then advised her with “forget him, there are many more fish in the sea.” Needless to say that was FIMS playing havoc again which nearly earned me a black eye! All she needed was some hand holding during this period and I advocated the “move on” mantra. Since this has proven time and again to be the bane of my existence, I have decided to do something and get this out of my system ASAP. The first step that I’m going to do is curb my enthusiasm about juicy news that I hear and refrain from spilling the beans to the person being gossiped about! Crappy feeling, but I have to tr...

Can You Chill Out with Your Mom? Can You Add Her To Your Facebook List of Friends?

Whoever said that you couldn’t be friends with your Mom is probably thinking old school mother. I am certainly no teenager, neither am I in my 20’s but getting closer to dotage (uh uh). Over the years, however, I noticed that my Mom was one of the coolest Mom’s in school, college, while I worked, in between relationships and when my marital cord snapped. Let me let on how cool she was and has been through the years. When I had my first crush – she was very disappointed, and rightly so, though at the time I was angry that my secret was out. Here was her youngest with a boyfriend, and in her teens! It was hard for her to digest this since none of the older siblings went down this road. When she found out, all hell broke loose, she screamed at me, stopped me from going out, but she also stood by me. The boyfriend went away as did the friends’ circle. She never left my side, and held me while I sobbed away because he was my one true love (at the time). Ah, the throes of the first dabble...

Narrow Path

When I look at your arms on the cross stretched wide Your eyes filled with love encouraging us to drop the divide But no matter which way we trudge You love everyone without even the slightest grudge. Temptations all around enticing us with its wares How do we ignore these pangs and stop its glares? Many ridicule us because of the road we follow Help us set an example and travel the path of straight and narrow.

Doctor Hungry

I have been the route meeting with so many quacks that I am fatigued at the way some doctors/specialists don’t think twice about ripping patients off. Having said that however, I would like to point out that there are so many earnest doctors who go the mile and are an honor to their profession. This post is not about the earnest doctors, but the rip offs. Sometime ago I sought the professional expertise of a renowned specialist who had an entourage to handle her every whim and fancy. I paid to consult her but was tossed aside to meet her intern! Being ill and hazy, I had no say in the matter but this left me extremely annoyed that I had to stiff up a large bill… for what? With irate friends, colleagues and relatives who have been shortchanged by a few quacks, I have penned a couple of lines below… Doctors, physicians, radiologists, new life healers, and others we have met Treat us with disdain and mere guinea pets A pill here, blood transfusion there and scans everywhere Set...

Beginning of the End?

A short story here... Just read and let me know what you think? I haven't concluded the story just going with the flow. The erratic nature of the power supply left the entire city in the lurch and this seemed to be a frequent occurrence. In spite of pleadings to curb global warming people paid no heed to the warnings and this brought about the swarm …. The beginning was when the entire country was wiped out in darkness and stampedes all over going on well into the night. Headlights of passing vehicles were the only source of light as generators were giving way because of the scarcity of fuel available. Every living being was being held hostage because of the “no power and no water” adage. No rainfall = less electricity = no water = no produce = malnutrition. The crops were in a mess, pets were getting crazed, and livestock was dropping dead by the minute. Drought was at an all time high. Neighboring countries pitched in, but this deluge was gaining momentum across cou...
