Frimost said:Yes rape...and not just rape, but even the brutalization of consenting women like prostitutes and others...![]()
Such people belong in cages with rights others enjoy taken away from them and them living to find that out for the rest of their lives.
You know that thread I made the other day about the Saudis abducting women here for sex slaves? I mentioned that was just part of one article in a three article series of abuses against women forced into the sex trade, abused, raped, and sometimes killed.![]()
Every country in the world has at one time practiced in slavery of one form or another. And done no less horrid than the claims of that specific story. Whether as the buyers, sellers or keepers of slaves for any and all despicable acts upon those treated thusly. We in the western world have abolished this for ourselves in a span of time in the history of humanity that is just a blink of an eye.
With the Saudi story as with all slave circuits it will be found it isnt just the Saudi's whom are involved in this market. We have our fair share of non-humanitarians in the western world to. With noting that it is only a few elite Saudi's whom would be able to afford these specific slaves mentioned. Thus not all Saudi's should be held in account for the crimes of their kindred.
I am not pro-slavery but hating Saudi's for something that we in western world were once guilty of will bring only regretable acts. One of them being war, where since the beginning of last century 90% of all those whom lost lives were civilians. Before that period in time it was mostly reversed where the soldiers were those that incured the greatest losses of life. Neither scenario is better than the other when it comes to civilians or soldiers dying.
Hell, not only have I never raped anyone but I haven't even had sex with one yet. But still, just reading all that pain and suffering inflicted upon women (and sometimes boys too) by so many men made me feel bad just to be member of the male gender.
It is deplorable these acts that you speak of and I agree with you. Having gone through the same of feeling bad to be a male when women have been treated thusly in current times and history. Nor is it any less horrible when males go through rape either. But the fact remains that in a our dominantly patriarchal society not enough is getting done about all of this. Need equal representation of males and females in government for this among many issues to be addressed better.
Too be fair I do sometimes hear about women raping boys and girls and occasionally men. But still, so many seem to be occuring by men that it makes me wonder sometimes what's wrong with my fellow mankind?
Biggest problem is that people get to caught up in blindly following fundamentalist dogma and distractions. With not communicating enough about so many issues, rape being one of them. The statistics one sees on rape dont always include those whom have been molested with out penetration taking place.
With either rape or molestation the biggest problem is the silence of victims which isnt there fault in entirety. They need support of friends, family and society to know its ok to speak out and that something will be done about it.
When nations and individuals get better at dealing with issues globally and internally with political and personal differences aside. With putting lives of people and their well being first above all other considerations then things will be a lot better.
