!!!!!Rape Culture!!!!!

 

Ok this blog is about rape culture. I will explain the views of the sociological and my views about it. So here we go. Anyway the sociological stand point view of the alleged “rape culture”, first of we look at the socialization agents and we ask ourselves are they to blame, is all of society, or certain sectors of society? Who do we point the finger at? Who is to blame for this heinous crime? Well in my mind I would blame the agents of socialization, because if the child doesn’t get taught right from wrong, and how to understand the word no, and they get to run wild to do as they please, well then I will blame the parents because they need to socialize their kids with the knowledge of the when to back off and take no for an answer.

                Like the Steubenville rape case, where two high school boys raped a girl that was seriously intoxicated to the point where she couldn’t talk, walk or even act on her own behave, that’s gets to the point let’s say you were at that party and you witnessed this going on, would you stop and think what that poor girl is going through? How it will affect her from there on out? Would you act on her behave to do what’s right? Well those are good questions to ask yourself if you would do something. But in her case only one person spoke out but immediately got silenced because it was that person alone that stood up for that girl while the rest of the people attending that party were for it. This is one of the saddest most heinous things a person can do.

Now on to another subject, military sexual harassment/ rape, it’s been going on for years sure the person who had done the raping got court marshaled and dishonor discharged from the service, but yet it still goes on and in some cases it doesn’t get documented because the person who was raped is to traumatized to say anything in fear of their assailant would attack again, and this time it probably be worse for the victim so rarely does the victim report it to the authorities.

Now on to my opinion. In my own opinion, people are lazy, and as soon as the crime is done and they’re the witness and they could’ve done something to help the victim but yet they choose to keep their distance and rarely ever come to the aid of the person who is in dire need for help. Which in my mind is horrible, why wouldn’t you show some kindness and love instead of showing the careless and don’t give a crap about the other person attitude that everyone so apparently has. Which annoys me to shreds, I mean if I were the bi-standard  I would most defiantly have done something to help, even if I got myself hurt or insanely worse “killed”, that’s the way I would want because at least the victim would’ve had time to escape to safety.

Now I will answer in my opinion on who is to blame for this messed up diabolical world those we so inhabit. I say the blame is spread out to the agents of socialization, society, why because the “agents” should at least teach the child from an earlier age the difference from right and wrong, and also the blame goes to certain sectors of society, because some parts of society have a lot of influence towards younger people who are extremely impressionable towards older people I think the phrase goes “monkey sees monkey do”. So if the younger child sees someone getting sexually molested it will certainly traumatize he/she at an early age, but again I’ll say it might not always have the same effect on that child as it would another child at an young age, some might grow up to be someone who acts against rape, or the he/she might more than likely will turn out to be a whole new species of serial rapist. So if that happens he/she might take it to the next level and turn into a serial killer that rapes his/her victims then kills their victim after they feel the emotional release.
