Intolerance towards gender equality highlights a patriarchal mindset. “If men are born free, so how is that, the women are born slaves”?
A term that was given up decades ago seems to be coming back to life. When the world has entered into a new millennium, but the woman of patriarchal society continues to be oppressed and ill-treated.
What’s more threatening is to watch the top leaders of the country passing on sexist comments in a way that supports rape culture that India has been normalizing for ages.

TSA presents you with some slurs that unleash the misogynistic perspective of Indian Politicians.

Will they be hanged for rape? “).

“If a woman is raped then both, she and the boy should be punished.”- Abu Azmi

Punish women too in rape cases SP’s state president Abu Azmi, commented.
According to Azmi “If a woman is caught (in a rape case), then both she and the boy should be punished. In India, there is a death penalty for rape, but when there’s consensual sex outside marriage, there’s no death penalty against women.”
It’s sickening to see, people in power are making such atrocious and condemnable comments, and wants the victim to be punished.

“If anyone from the opposition is here, then listen up I will send my boys, and they will rape your wives and sisters in your homes.”- Tapas Pal

For the first time, an elected MP Tapas Pal of Congress threatened rape as a form of political vengeance on camera.
“If anyone from the Opposition dares to touch any woman then I will send my boys and get women of CPM raped,” Pal said at a speech in Chouhama village. Pal’s statements are in a whole new league.

It’s highly unacceptable, when people in positions of power make remarks either blaming women for crimes against them or dismissing rape as a mistake, as they are in a way, emboldening the criminals. The problem is, after the initial fire against such anti-women words or actions, lethargy strikes and nothing more is ever done, leaving women in the exact or even worse position than they were always in, because now they have been made to feel a little more scared and insecure.
