tuky Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 This happened to a girl that I know, her and a girlfriend went back to a school friends house where the schoolboy told my friend that if she didn't let him have his way with her he would call his brother and his friends in from outside and all of them would do her. She was a virgin and too scared to say no. When she arrived home her Father saw her scared state and blood on her pants so he went to the police. A 'settlement' was offered by the offenders family but rejected by this girls Dad. The offender ended up going to jail. When this girl told me about this she was crying her heart out. I was so impressed by her family for pursuing it rather than accepting the 'settlement' even though they were a poor family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leisurely Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 What I find to be most tragic about this, is that the post about a decapitated person has got more comments than this one. A young woman has maybe had her life wrecked (loss of reputation etc) and nobody seems to be concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A young woman has maybe had her life wrecked (loss of reputation etc) and nobody seems to be concerned. I'd say being decapitated is more deserving of sympathy than a loss of reputation. but nevertheless, cut his balls off etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leisurely Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 But Barney, if you read my post in the decapitated man thread,you would see that I deplored the levity that it was being treated with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney_the_Dinosaur Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 (edited) Rape of girls happens a lot in Thailand, gang rapes too. What makes it worse is that very few are reported to the police, as the girl doesn't want to endure the shame. Everything tends to be hushed up. The perp gets away with it 99% of the time With that in mind, the fact that this case might result in justice is actually a good thing. Better out than in. Well, you all chose to live in Thailand. I didn't. Edited March 15, 2007 by Barney_the_Dinosaur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wpcoe Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 And, what message is the government sending by proposing a law that rape is acceptable (non-criminal) within a marriage? Women's rights and reputations still seem to lag western countries a wee bit? I'm not surprised that it is assumed that many rapes go unreported.
