Rape: ‘It’s your fault!’

In this video, Bollywood actress Kalki Koechlin and television host Juhi Pandey take a dig at everybody who makes women responsible for crimes against them.

Progressive women and progressive studies say that social norms, rules and patriarchal structures give men in these cultures a sense of entitlement. This makes women and children in these societies particularly vulnerable to attacks from male members in society. And to add to it, even law enforcers in these societies claim that women are “responsible” for crimes against them.

Rape is your fault, claim the protagonists in the video. But is it really? That is the question the protagonists in this video are really asking.
