The men in our society can be divided up into three groups; one of those men who follow the trail of morals and value all through life, second is where men know not to spread the act of terror but slip of time causes them to forego those teachings and third are those who are raised to think women are their property and they have every right of them. It’s not how girls dress, it’s how guys think is aimed at those boys in our society who know rape isn't such a manly act yet fail to stand against it in time of pressure. I feel these are the people we have to focus on in order to decrease the crime rate because regardless of how much one tries to spoon feed morals to those belonging to the third group; they just won’t comprehend and continue to spread the terror of rape.

 This video is a montage of a few recent rape cases and rape statistic. The images are of rape victims from either India or the Middle East while the statistics are those pertaining to the USA.  Living in the US somehow makes us think we are invincible when it comes to rape because our media tends to bombard us with reportings from other nations and tries to cover up our own flaws in that term. Regardless of where rape takes place it always comes down on the girl as ‘she had asked for it’ or ‘she shouldn't have dressed that way’ or ‘why was she out’ and gets scrutinized for it. She gets punished for it by her own people, by the society she is a part of even is the perpetrator(s) don’t. The fact of reality is that rape isn't a foreign issue; we can’t turn a blind eye and we, especially the men in our society, have to act against it.
