Alarm clock for the time to wake up...(Contd from previous)

....Contd)....
We must be alert not to take vacant Buses at such late night hours. But the question of the hour is, why at all and ever should such a fear for late night activities be there? A decent person cannot carry out his work late at night just because some useless fellow wants to have fun by turning out wild at such hours? And all of this just because he knows that the administration is not at all strong enough to track such cases and sue the culprits?

We need a strong law. We need to strengthen our system. But somewhere, we need to strengthen our mentality too. When my friend's mother gave me the aforementioned reasons, I gave her exactly these counter-reasons. Post-partition, when Salwar Kameez was the most popular attire for women, rapes were happening at, I guess, double the rate! What were girls doing wrong, then??

So, I still do not support the Slut Walks. Seriously. 'Besharami' is not the code of conduct, be it on the part of men or women. But yes, I stand for the freedom of an individual who can be a male, female, trans-gender, homosexual or anyone! I stand for  a change that has to come from within.

I may not go to India Gate for the protest. But wherever, whenever I face such orthodoxies, I protest personally, violently and strongly!
