The reason : in India boys are preffered over girls (babies)

Girl pregnancies end in abortion

The ratio men / women get insanely unbalanced

Many men don't have women. Sexual tensions arise and they blame the women for the situation and rape them to punish.

Too many people in a country rife with corruption, and with a disregard for women (India is ranked worst in the world by UN as a place to be female).

Some people blame sexual repression, but it is the actual mindset of women being below animals that has permeated the culture for centuries.

Bullshit.

If you're sexually repressed, you don't have to rape someone to get off. There is a control & power variable that is much more the factor.

It's not India, it's the whole world that is completely messed up. India is a symptom only. Just like America, China, etc.

The main reason is that the police have been FORCED to act upon the charges because of media.

Child rape is EXTREMELY common in India and not frowned upon when it's a group of people from a higher caste doing it to an untouchable 4 year old. The police have just dismissed it up until the media started reporting it and even in those cases the police have tried to pay the victims families to avoid having to take the report.

It's a sheithole country filled with cultural backwards people who believe that people have different worth based on caste, what do you expect?

Child rape happens in this world we live in. Look at how many people in America have done this.

As for the other points you mentioned, India's history in incomparable to any nation in the West. Too bad India seems to abandon it's ancient teachings and adopt the Western lifestyle. It's also too bad the UK raped India for 300 years.

The caste system exists in all countries. In some its more obvious than others.

Based on previous questions and non-responses from you, I guess I'm beginning to understand the level of discourse you are seeking.

lulz... how come many other poor countries have low crime rates?

Because poor countries can't afford guns, clearly.

"lulz"

Also, what is normal, and who the hell are you to define it?

Normal is however I choose to define it, because I am normal, and you are not. Prove otherwise.

Yeah.. and a country that may be economically more advanced than the USA in the future. And has better cuisine lol..

Besides, as many say morals are subjective, it's their morals against yours, is it not?

Yes, please try to blame the UK for the Indian caste system and the behaviour of the Police.

The caste system doesn't exist in all countries, it exists in India specifically and it's because of a culture that neither the UK nor Gandhi could defeat.

As long as they remain backwards arseholes they will have a nation filled with backwards arseholes where the police don't want to charge people with higher caste for rape of a four year old by men of a higher caste.

UAE is a rich nation, filled with gold, jewlery and awesome buildings.

UAE is a sheithole.

It has NOTHING to do with economics, it has to do with basic human rights for EVERYONE.

Morals are indeed subjective but empathy is an inherent trait in all humans that are not socio or psychopaths.

You don't even need to know the golden rule to know right from wrong, you were born with it.

DONE as opposed to "are doing and will continue doing for all foreseeable future because of a culture that is inherently disgusting"

A contradiction, if there ever was one.

I don't condone abuse on any level. However, things like this are shocking (to me at least).

My own reasoning here is a few major factors cause this:

- Caste
- Spirituality (,i.e. who gives a shit what happens? It's your karma, get over it)
- A lack of education. Some still believe that revealing clothes induces men to rape.

People here in America still believe this crap, shoot you have the Military here in America who think women shouldn't go out to a bar and drink, and men aren't responsible for their behavior if they have been drinking.. I mean its this mentality that women should stay at home after certain hours, or be dressed a certain way, or act a certain way, and carry devices to protect themselves. We call women sluts if they are dressed provocatively, or act provocatively...and say she asked for it if she gets attacked and raped.
Rape isn't about a guy or guys being horny.. and just wanting to get laid, it is about dehumanizing someone, humiliating them, causing them pain on many levels, it isn't about sex.. it is about power, and control. What it says to me is that these men hate women, females, they resent them, and they want to take out their anger on them, take out their frustrations on them.

It isn't just India, we have this crap right here in America too. By the way, there was a news article on Reddit of a guy here in one of the States who killed an infant a little girl by orally penetrating her to the point that she was bleeding from her nose and mouth and eventually suffocated to death. She was like 3 or 4 weeks old. There was also another incident of another guy who sodomized his own 4 year old daughter here in the states and they had to do surgery on her as she almost bled to death. I can certainly find those news articles for you. These were pretty recent too.

Again, yes, insane pedos exist everywhere but in the US, what would happen to the Police officers who refused to take the report based on the castes of perpetrators and victims?

The thing is that in India it's sanctioned by the local authorities and accepted cultural behaviour based on a system that only a madman could think up.

These so-called basic human rights are created by corrupt men in power so therefore they really don't solve anything. You seem to be calling entire countries shitholes yet you speak about morality.

Psychopaths and sociopaths are narrow terms; many people could fall into these at certain times and not at others. We all have these tendencies in us. No one is better than the other.

What is this golden rule you speak of?

One's right is another person's wrong, so then who is right? One thing is moral in one place but is immoral in another. Who is immoral and who is not?

Let's not try to assert our own values and ideologies on other people. This is what the West has done for the past 1000 years. Yet they go around calling other people barbaric and savages.

Of course it does.

Are you Incorruptibles disciple or something? Same retarded one liners, same playing(?) stupid rather than engaging in rational discussion.

I contend that life is tough. and people are cruel. and?

The human condition is as such, and it's how we evolved and will ever be.

Everything matters. Anything goes is a lack of care. Calling others bad people while we are bad does not help anyone. Fix yourself first. How can corrupt people point fingers at other corrupt people?

Nothing is good or bad in this universe.

Anything does go, since what the mind deems fit can occur. The only limit we place on our actions is self-directed.

And? If they choose to implement caste, it's their prerogative. Who is to say even that social equality is required or beneficial?

You can have your contradictory morals lol...
