This is misogyny in the guise of tradition and religious sentiments that a woman getting assaulted is her fault. These braindead fanatics think that a raped woman is impure and she was asking for an assault. The purpose of art is to tell the truth no matter who feels offended and here there’s nothing offensive in the first place, they are seeing things which are not there. The state is encouraging the uncouth behaviour – that a woman is the property of her husband and if she’s touched inappropriately then she’s to be discarded . These garden variety spineless misogynists will never consider women as equal, there’s a reason why they address women as ” Mataye, Behene, Betiya ” as if the woman doesn’t have the identity of her own and is no more than a cattle known by her owner. If they are so worried about religious sentiments getting hurt then why don’t they make the country safe for women , introduce sex education right from school and sensitise the society. They won’t do that – they will keep playing the dangerous game of distraction. In a week there are 2 reported dowry deaths in one of our best governed state i.e. Tamilnadu , it is unsettling what would be happening in the worst governed states . The entire circus just because the rape victim shared the name of a mythological entity and so no one but the self appointed custodians of religion will decide how to tell her story is tragic and comical.
