Do not be disgusted just with the title. The actual act is more heinous. And the latest statistics seems to suggest, asserts Jhoomur Bose, that if the condition of social security doesn’t improve, India will have three women who have been raped. The 2-month-old babies are not being included here because they usually die after having been raped. Or the two-and-a-half year old infant who’s throat was slashed by her ‘friendly’ neighbor after he had raped her.
Even the old are not safe. Hearing tales of grandmothers being raped leave a vacuum of helplessness in us women. How shameful it is that no girl in the country can deny not being misbehaved with at least once in her lifetime. Rape is not necessarily the penetration of the hymen but also rape of innocence, destruction of self-confidence and a future that could have been so much better had it not been scarred by groping hands. Bose says that if situation doesn’t improve for women, we will soon be having Raped Ladies’ Nights at pubs in place of kitty parties. Oh, God!
