20. I'm talking about the leadership/this stupid lady politician, not the rapist/murderers themselves ..

For fucks sake, you can string those bastards up for all I care.

My main point here is ... it's not terribly surprising to hear that this belief still holds sway in the Middle East and even India ... where there are Muslims, this attitude exists. That's why they make their women cover up, because they believe this to be true about men, that they can't control themselves, their animal natures.

This shouldn't shock us to hear ... esp. when this view on the 'causality' of rape was common even in our own society, not that long ago, and is still believed by a small sliver.

People like this lady politician need to be EDUCATED about the true cause of rape. If you were to approach her with our Western view (i.e. it's about power/violence, not lust) with the type of attitude everyone's showing on this thread ... it probably would not 'work'.

Obviously you think differently, so we can agree to disagree on that point.
