Piece Of Mind From A Rationalist - Rape and Sexual Assault


The conversations of some beasts...

Pedophiles, incestuous acts and rapes...These are what we always read and see in medias nowadays...Recently, I've read on the internet about a Pakistani woman sharing about her horrible experience and the despicable acts of the men in that country and I saw some religious men mentioned about this: "If a dog sees uncovered meat then it will eat the meat" or 'if women choose to be naked it is our right to rape them'. Well, these are some words spoken by shameless beasts from the land of the 'pure'.

As a man of rationalist, I felt disgusted and ashamed with what they said, because I never feel sexually-aroused when seeing ladies dressing sexily or provocatively. Men are born 'visual' creatures undeniably, so who doesn't love to look at bombshells in bikinis flaunting their curves at beaches or Victoria Secrets model - Alessandra Ambrosio, catwalks on stages? I admit that my eyes enjoy looking at them but  it never go extreme till I feel like committing crimes, such as rape or sexual assault. 

In my point of view, rape is a disgusting, horrendous, sadistic and sick act. No man, woman or child bring it upon themselves because of 'what they wear'. Rape is not all about clothing. It is an act of violence expressed when someone is in a position of power who is hunger for sexual pleasure. The sexual fantasy comes from that sadism to satisfy the hunger and thirst, not the actual person's nakedness or anatomy. Old ladies get raped, 'ugly' (the word 'ugly' here doesn't have a definite meaning) ladies get raped, pretty ladies get raped, young children get raped and men get raped. Sometimes, there are even cases where rapes occurred after marriage which will eventually lead to domestical violence. Like relationship, sex is not one-sided, it can only happen with the agreement of two adults. There's no love and passion in rape, only pain, scars and traumas. 

Sometimes, there are bullshits spewed by some 'fanatic human' that hijab protects ladies from rape, and those who do not wear hijab will be burnt in hell in afterlife. Or the fact that ladies in hijabs are somehow 'pure and chaste' than women who are not. To me, clothing does not mean anything, what matters are morality and faith (for those believers in God) deep within one's soul. I've seen and read about girls in hijabs had sex, took pills and drugs, getting involved in gangs or illegal racing. 

In some countries, such as Pakistan, women who are raped are considered to have dishonoured their families and have acid poured on their faces, poison forced down their throats, are stoned to death, shot, have their eyes, tongues or noses cut out, raped again and thrown away. That is how the land of 'pure' treats its women. However, I'm glad and happy that our country provides constant support and counselling to rape victims, helping them to get out of the traumatic past. 

As a conclusion, how ones dressed DOES NOT give you the right to rape or sexually assault them. If you tell all that you're a religious person, yet you don't have any self-control on yourself, you're nothing more than a beast. Only a beast will break through the chain, running loose and attacking human.
