For Patriarchal Society, Rapist & Rape Victims

patriarchal idea

For Patriarchal Society, Rapist & Rape Victim“When I’m raped, people say that I’ve lost my honour. How did I lose my honour? My honour is not in my vagina. It is a patriarchal idea that my rape will defile the honour of my community. I’d like to tell everyone, why did you place your community’s honour in a woman’s vagina? We never did that. It is the rapist who loses his honour, we don’t.” – Kamla Bhasin (Indian Feminist & Activist)

 You all should digest that!
