So are the members saying that men too are getting raped or gang raped equally just like women' date=' in India?[/quote'] That depends on your definition of crimes. Men do get murdered, mugged and really it is dangerous for everybody. Those are also a crimes and let's not get into which is a "greater" crimes as crimes are crimes. And India certainly doesn't deserve such a bad rep particular from nations (eg. UK) who have a greater problem of those crimes mentioned in OP.

It is a bad rep, no denying about it.., Delhi is the rape capital of India... Is it a safe place for women? Do men normally get sexually abused in every aspect of their lives equally like women in India?

Men do get abused in different forms, but that doesn't count for you? Those are not crimes? Developed or developing countries barring a few cities, it is not a safe place for anyone. Why all this exclusivity for India and women?

india's law and order (nyaya vevastha) is abysmal in response to rape cases though.

The OP says its a dangerous place for women and I agree. You guys are making in man vs woman by equating all crimes... This is exclusive about sexual harassment. So lets stick to the topic of sexual harassment. If you want to add any more specific crimes, check out acid throwing crimes? Can you say with surety that acid gets thrown equally on men and women in India?

So are you trying to say relatively more crime happens to women than men in India?

I'm not bothered about crime against men in this topic.... Please start a new topic to discuss crime against men... The kind of society we have men can survive lots of crimes against them with zero social stigma attached... This topic is specific about atrocities against women. You are trying to measure crime. While the OP and many of us are trying to understand the the difficult life of being a women in India, crime or no crime... If you are adamant on comparing and trying to belittle the atrocities against female in India, so I'm ready to stick my head out and say yes, women face more atrocities, crimes and unique crimes as compared to men in India. You can start comparing with foeticide/infanticide, child marriages, bans/fatwas, sexual atrocities right from young age including molestations throughout the growing life, acid attacks, social backlash etc. Heck even if you compare using foreign visitors, let me know who are more safer, foreign travelling men or women and why?

There is this particular breed of complaint that rises up whenever there is a thread about crimes against women. These posters will take it as a sign that men are somehow being sidelined instead of focusing on women. They make it about themselves. Their line of reasoning which responds to facts about crimes against women with men being more in danger is beyond my understanding. Why does talking about crimes against women lead to talking about men??? It's unfeckingbelievable. Pretty sure there is a perverted psychological reason behind this particular stimulus-response. What is it? Controlling, over-bearing mother who has left you with an irrational fear of women, sexual deviancy and castration-complex and all leading to unhealthy and underdeveloped notions about sexual politics and gender relations.

OP says dangerous without being specific to sexual crimes. Rest you can look at the crime numbers Yourself.
Have you checked the OP and the report mentioned in it? Are you sure it's not specific about women or atrocities against them? What crime numbers you are talking about? What data you have about acid attacks or female foeticide/infanticide? Do you protect yourself from getting molested while in public or you allow yourself to get molested in whichever way possible?

You missing the point and instead turning it to issue between man and woman! Look, it is never good to categorize victims as it sets a dangerous precedent. Current India is the finest example of it where it is divided on religion. And one particular group gets the focus while the rest is uncertain and thus the country totally divided and unstable. You have to realize crimes are everywhere and cannot make it one sided. It's not a ego match but a simple point. That just the categorization of victims. Of course, you have every right to ask the government to "prioritize" the work for women welfare and security. As there isn't any existing regulations and protection mechanisms in place. So focus on the solutions side on getting the government to deliver good solutions in a timely and fast manner rather the former. Ask the government to focus their attention on this real issues instead of the "secularism" and provide proper solutions.

And I'm missing the point.

and what you got do you say about the fact that in India a man is three times more likely to be murdered than a woman. 2 times more likely to commit suicide than a woman. (let me know if you doubt these numbers) I am not saying that any particular section should be ignored be male or female. All victims of crimes are victim of crimes. There is no gender, race, religion. Period. Don't try to create or help to create hysteria about one specific kind of crime when other kind of crimes are as prevalent. Don't take things on face value. I know acid attacks are heinous crime and should be dealt with severely. But do you know how many acid attacks take place in an year? Just because it feels more shocking such attacks grab headlines in newspapers and doesn't mean it is as regular as other kind of assaults. When tackling a problem you have to go by numbers and resources should be channelized accordingly unlike ICF where almost every day 2-3 threads are on specific kind of crimes.
