Fake respectability of women.

Byline: SULTANA JAMIL NASIRABADI - Lahore

Sometimes I sit and wonder why I was quiet when I saw three boys attempting to rape a girl. Still, I was quiet when a college boy did it with a child in secong grade. I was silent when a male attempted to rape her cousin in the excuse of marrying her thereafter. All such heart-wrenching incidents happened in front of my eyes. Nevertheless, these have become a common practice in our society.

Back then, I thought it was the end thereafter, but today I sit and say it was nothing which I imagined earlier. Saddest of all, we find the worst rapists in the educational institutions such as schools, madrassahs, colleges and universities.

My hands shrunk as if someone took away my soul from my body when I got to know about the reality of such so-called teachers; it is very terrible getting to know teachers are indulged in such cases. When women are aggregated together to protest against such rapists, instead of supporting them, they blame protesters.

Then to our great misfortune, it is our so-called protectors who are included in the list of rapists who threaten the girls to be silent after raping them.
