Thank you!!!  I don't see too many others understanding that it is not about what a girl looks like but the feeling the person gets.

Israfil,

I was not clear, my fault.. I know many, many parents of young women, THEY know it is scary out there. but do they have their daughters take self-defense classes? (They let their daughter go off to Aruba on their own with a bunch of school mates..) There are many women who don't discuss it cause it would be opening up something that scares them. We teach at colleges, self-defense.. and there are people who had no idea they should lock their door in the dorm room, I kid you not. They come from suburbia land.. and cannot always fathom that people, they might know are dangerous. 

I am not talking about street-wise people who grow up in the city. There are a whole host people who think they know what attackers look like (they'll often ask me about those "homeless" men). They live in the suburbs and think they are "more free" from crime. Their children have few survival instincts in them. I live with my two nieces in nice suburb out of DC. And they are so clueless as compared to kids that live in the city.

"He said she said" Yes they go unreported, why? Why don't people tell.. cause he'll deny it and if there is no physical proof or witnesses you would never convict him in a court of law. You know that. You know rape cases are hard to prove.

I, not for one second thinks any woman deserves to be raped. AND the reality is there ARE bad people out there. No you should not be raped. But you know, the only thing you can do is to protect yourself.

Rape is NOT about dress. Rape is about power and opportunity. Most rapes happen by someone you know. Around 66% of women who are raped know their attacker. I've heard of too many women of all ages beingf raped. Sorry their dress had nothing to do with it.

And if they were truly an Islamic society those men would not receive prison terms they would be dead. There is little justice for women anywhere in the world.
