False indignation is a poor way to arrive at the truth. "Insulting," "destroy," "abhorrent," etc. Sheer emotion. You seem not to be familiar with Indian society at this moment in history. I won't trouble you with the details, since that might require setting aside one's ego for a moment. But for the sake of appealing to your strong sense of emotion, I'd like you envision a life where you live in abject, degrading poverty, you have no prospect of a better future, premarital sex and pornography are stigmatized, there are more men than women, prostitution is illegal, and there is essentially no realistic prospect you will ever have any consensual sexual encounter with a member of the opposite sex for the rest of your life. Maybe you'd feel slightly more like the feral dog than you do at the moment. We are animals, in no way set apart from the other species. Those of us who exert "enough self-control every day not to destroy another person's bodily integrity" are merely lucky. To suggest otherwise simply reflects this profound, Utopian ignorance of the human condition that only the world's most pampered are privileged enough to relish without consequences. |
