The Burningsoul's World - Hitler Died and So will you someday!

" I am a white American female working in Bangladesh. The public groping here is shameless and beyond disgusting. As much as I want to fight back, I find that every day I impose more and more restrictions on myself to maintain my safety and sanity.
Recently I was coming back to Dhaka from Mymansingh on a public bus. The young man sitting across the isle from me began to very openly masturbate while staring completely unashamed at me. When I shouted at him (in English since I do not speak Bangla) it was the women around me who shouted back, apparently in his defense. I was wearing a salwar, so I don't think I was being faulted for immodesty. Regardless, I was made to feel ashamed for his vulgar and degrading actions.
Women and men obviously have to fight back because a society can't function when half the population is constantly under threat of sexual violence. Sadly, I am seriously considering wearing a burka to and from work with the hope that when no one can tell my age or ethnicity it will become possible to commute without having my day ruined by these disgusting men."

This is what a lady named Taylor Says at http://tamilpunkster.blogspot.com/2006/03/filth-nymphomaniacs-and-womans-body.html . The writer named Tamil Punkster puts through an excellent collection of What a Women has to go through in India and Why Eve Teasing is becoming one of the most social problems regarding women in Independent India.

As I read on his post I come accross some influential points and his escapades which I would like to Potray here in this entry ... The Most significant lines which the writer shows a live example on this industry ( Eve Teasing) Works at making a Women feel violated even without doing anything.

A man showed me his organ when I was 10. I was cycling home on my way back from school. As soon as I skirted a turn, this man jumps in front of me with everything hanging out. I was terrified for an instant, but I swerved around him and I sped away.

I was groped in a train when I was 12. I was coming out of the train toilet, when an old man( in his 50's I guess) pushes himself onto me and squeezes my butt.
I scurried around him and I run to my mom. I never left her side for the rest of the journey.

I was felt up my skirt(my school skirt) within a matter of weeks after the train incident, by the bus conductor, in a pretense of helping me get down from the crowded bus.

My breasts have been pinched SEVERAL times in crowded areas and while sitting in an auto during a traffic signal.

Almost every woman goes through the same harassment every day in one form or the other.
Let us look at this scenario:

You are waiting at the bus stop early in the morning, minding your business as usual, when a group of guys sitting on a wall behind the stop, as if on cue, burst out into a loud rendition of "Chholi ke peeche kya hai, chholi ke peechey!" or something like "Anney, madipa pakuraaru, anney idupu a pakkuraaru!"( ohh Brother look at the folds of the hips! Or something like that) .
You valiantly try to ignore them and jump into the next bus which comes along.

To your dismay, the bus is extremely crowded, and to top it off, an old man cannot keep his hands to himself and makes it a point to grope your breast everytime the bus driver applies the brakes and to make matters worse you can feel him getting a hard on.

You have had enough and you decide to get down at the very next stop, but you have to fight through the huge group of guys hanging off the footboard of the bus and you get groped on your way out, by seven pairs of hands atleast.

You are left feeling violated, but you have to go to work/college/school, so you call an auto and get into it and heave a sigh of relief. But your relief is short lived as you notice the auto driver adjusting his rearview mirror to catch glimpses at you, and you try you level best to keep a somber expression and you stubbornly look at the road instead.

At the next signal you are caught off guard by some guy who puts his hand into the auto through the window and pinches your breast(in lightning speed) as he zips by. By the time you get over the shock and the pain, he has sped off and you are left feeling dirty and filthy and all you can think of, is how you need to take a bath. Badly.

Finally you reach your destination and as you walk towards it, you jump out of your skin as a car hurtles towards you, and swerves just before running you over. The driver stops, just in time to cackle loudly along with his cronies at your discomfiture and drives away.

You have had enough. You need that shower. You need to rub that feeling off your skin. Now.

Lets admit it Yes Eve Teasing is prevelant in this society and a few voices by our lousy blogs wont get the point heard. oh cmon for heavens sake The local politician in my place erected a Grand pandhal for Ganpathi. Little do people know that People play Jua under the pandal. Great way to welcome the Lord eh?

You talk of Sexual Harrasment people, This is what is happening.If you want to deal with it go to the public rather than writing. Practicability applies when you can personally go and Take this Face on. The reason I am telling you this is not because I am someone who is doing this but because if we can join this movement together well then there can be A small change.. ( Note I have cited small change) The reason being small change is because Eve Teasing is what people need ( Boys and the politicians).. They dont care whose mother or sister is hurt. For heavens sake with the advent of incest people dont care for even their own mothers and sisters so forget about other girls. And talking of provocative clothing. I beg the difference it doesent deter men who look at you as if they have xray googles installed on their eyes... You talk about women I have seen boys at my area touching the nipples of dogs. YES THEY DONT SPARE EVEN THE ANIMALS so forget about good will and all those nice nice things. Admit it those are assholes and the only way you can change them is Going to the root level.

Anyway I would urge the MEN in this world to come together and Please look at other girls like ur sister and mothers rather than looking at them as if they were ur ex wife and are fit to be raped.Women and Men have equal rights and we must fight towards equality ( This is what the sign says at many public places) But for a matter of fact i see those same signs got spitten with Gutka... No one cares thats what i am trying to say.. THe problem is we are not preaching to the downtrodden. You are talking about people who can Come to the internet and write about their problems what about those living in slums? What about those unheard voices? We have to nip the mischief in the bud.. Eleminate the problems at the root and the tree will be automatically cured. Where do you think men get the daring to do all these things? From the same assholes who sit around in slums and do the same and go scott free. its a wildfire that intensifies human emotions towards sexually gaining a Pinch or a breast press. The grassroot level has to be addressed.

ok I think I must stop yapping now...
