RE: Me too...

in #me-too7 years ago

In my country, Nigeria, often after a lady is raped, the society might begin to shun her especially when it becomes well known to everyone. Sometimes it becomes a thing of shame for her but what we fail to remember is that it's not her fault she was raped. Though some people are of the opinion that women sometime through provocative dresses, tempt men to rape them, I do not believe seeing a woman wearing something provocative or seductive is enough reason to rape her. Also, it's not in every scenario that the woman is the provocateur. Some men just have issues with keeping their lustful desires at bay.

Sort:  

What needs to be stressed is that sexual abuse is sexual abuse whether or not the lady was dressed provocatively or not. For me girls should be encouraged to comeout and tell their stories boldly and the society should not makethem feel bad. Young boys should be taught to respect females and sexual harassers should be punished when caught because sexual abuse is the worst crime that can be committed against a woman.
