Apparently, rape is all I think about

Well, according to some experts (a particular good doctor), my head is full of sex and all I can think about when I see those of the opposite gender is to want to commit rape.

It wouldn't matter whether they are my family members, friends or colleagues, I would just constantly feel the urge because their bodies are just too arousing. And I am offended.

Yes, my loyal readers. I am copping out this week because I have writer's block and I have turned to my muse for inspiration in writing this column.

My muse, the good Dr. Ridhuan Tee, academic and preacher, has stated in his newspaper column that women's bodies are arousing and that they make men want to rape them.

Hence, women need to cover up their bodies if they do not want to be raped. According to him, prevention is better than cure and it seems that the blame lies on the women.

We live in a society that has too long disrespected women and constantly stigmatise women sexually. It is as if women is the root of all evil.

If a woman dresses to revealing, she must be loose and is just inviting people to have sex with her. So when a man wants to rape her, it would be her fault and not the man.

And the reason society has come to be like this is because of sexist, chauvinistic and disrespectful men who continue to have the mentality like Dr. Ridhuan Tee.

Why can't it be the fault of the men? Let me lay out several scenarios for the good doctor to ponder and see if these good be other solutions to prevent rape as well.

1. Every single male should never be allowed to leave the house and mingle with society because if they are allowed out, all they would think about is raping people.

2. All men who have come of age is required to be blinded in both eyes because when they see members of the opposite sex, they get so aroused that they start raping people.

3. All boys, before they reach puberty, should be required to be mandatorily castrated so that they wouldn't eventually grow up to be rapists.

I think these three suggestions can definitely solve the rape problem that we have. I mean, prevention is better than cure, right? Nip in in the bud before it happens.

If men are the ones who so weak and constantly feel the need to rape people they see, then we should go right to the root cause. Punish the men instead of the women.

It doesn’t matter if a woman is Chinese or Malay, Muslim or non-Muslim,wearing a tudung or a skirt, rape is rape and the offender is always the rapist.

It is unfair to suggest that the onus always falls on the women to prevent rape from happening when the offender is always the male rapist.

Rape is when someone forces sex with another person who is unwilling. The key words here are 'force' and 'unwilling'. So how does that explain who the offender is?

So just please stop your writing and talking Dr. Ridhuan Tee. Simply stop it because almost everything you say just damages our society. Remember, prevention is better than cure.
