    India has already had several MeToo-like movements (comparable in size and scope). Some people are even starting to turn to violence out of sheer desperation.

    The problem there isn’t what goes on behind closed doors. They don’t even need to close the doors. They can do their shit in public and the only thing that will get anything done is nationwide protests, much like US cop killings against BMEs.

    I fear you are right and that a revolution will be what finally tips the scales.

      Do Indians not have fathers? I would be out for blood if someone raped my daughter, doesn’t matter if she is a full grown adult. I would be taking vengeance into my own hands.

        It’s worse. There are cases of fathers preforming honor killings of the raped daughter.

        The most likely person to rape a child is the father, followed by the brother, followed by the uncle/cousin/family friend.
