Whoa whoa whoa. So, basically, rape to “test” for rape? I…but…how…I’m going back to bed for a few years.

Looking at the Indian Supreme Court Case--it looks like a man was convicted of rape, appealed and as part of the appeal they inserted 2 fingers into the victim's vagina and found that she was 'loose enough' and therefore couldn't have been raped and thus overturned the rape conviction. This Supreme Court decision means that he's once again convicted of rape.

The amount of rapes that happen in India is beyond disturbing. It appears that a lot of Indian men see the women as nothing more than animals that can talk.

The amount of rapes in India is faaaaaaar lower than in most other countries. It's not even in top 50 when seeing through per capita.

Saying reported rapes are lower is no different than saying aliens are abducting people in farmlands. If you gonna start a hypothetical scenarios then everyone else can as well.

So you are saying that rape isn't not an under reported crime in India?

Your analogy is also absolutely horrible.

Rapes are underreported in every country. There is no proper unbiased method to determine how many those under reported ones are.

Or perhaps are you saying in all the 50+ countries that are above India in r@pe numbers no country has a single instance of underreporting ? Cuz that would be truly ridiculous.

I'm too gobsmacked to even be angry. WTF. As if having a larger vagina means you can't be raped. Not to mention it's fucked up in a million other ways.

I started seeing red when I finished reading it. People like this should not be in positions of power, yet they gravitate towards them.
