Embattled Soul...





No prescription…Defining of dress code required
 Rape happens in open & abode
Tribal, Metropolitan, Well Clad, Semi Naked all are raped
Rape knows no boundaries has been there forever…..


Sparks off on streets, in cars, in schools, in parks, in alleys no regard for age, race or social status. Rape is not a selective crime but in most cases random. No defense method is guaranteed, Common sense is valuable. Your action should be decisive and instinctive. If confronted, make as much noise as possible run away towards people. If you must fight, aim for the face, eyes, throat, or groin. These areas are usually unprotected and will cause immediate disability. Strike with maximum force. 

Rape is a lot more than an unwanted sex. Many carry a weapon & threaten the victim with violence. Rapists that fit the myth are more likely to be prosecuted, can be anyone: doctor, policeman, clergyman, social worker or corporate president.  It is estimated that 1 in 8 women will be raped in her lifetime in which 1 out of every 4 girls before they reach adulthood. Low reporting rates never let it breeze the daylight. Rape is the most frequently committed crime. An act of VIOLENCE, not passion.

More often than physical effects, victims tend to experience emotional devastation. Some of these psychological effects include: flashbacks, guilt, shame, depression, Battered Women's Syndrome, Borderline Personality Disorder, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Complex PTSD, Dissociative Identity Disorder, Rape Trauma Syndrome, Stockholm Syndrome, and many other similar symptoms. One of the after effects of a sexual crime is triggers. Triggers are objects, actions, and events that cause a victim to remember their attack and have an emotional-physical panic. Triggers can last for many years & times they never disappear.

 Survivor shares, “I know the toll that Sexual Abuse can take on one's life. I struggled to find ways to obtain personal satisfaction and healing. I used to believe that I would never be able to heal from what happened to me. I realized that although I could never get back what was taken from me, I could accept what happened, turn it around, and help others. That is when my life began to change. I began to find positive ways to channel the emotions I was feeling. So for those out there who are struggling right now, I want you to know that recovery is possible. Yes, it will take time, but you will grow to be a stronger person.”

Unfortunately, not every survivor is able to move forward. Many victims will never be able to understand how they are to make meaning out of such tragic and devastating occurrences. While some are able to use their experiences to help others as a way to find purpose in their life.

To such an immoral crime…

”What do you thing should be the punishment..?”
