Everyone On Campus Knew She Had Been Raped... by amazingirl: 11:44am On Aug 20, 2015
Some years ago I heard the story of a student on my University campus who was abducted and raped several times by a man I can only describe as a deranged sociopath. He was said to have released her after many hours. When she staggered out of his dorm room she was a mess. Those who found her rushed her to the hospital. Her friends had been searching for her for some time and had alerted her parents.

The story made it round campus. Those who didn't know her kept asking for descriptive detail on who she was, what level and department she was in. Most of us females were infuriated by the story and we heaped heavy curses on the guy who had done such an evil thing. Everyone however was deliberating on whether or not the lady would have the courage to return to school seeing as everyone now knew the story

The case was reported to the police and investigated. Whether or not the guy was found I honestly don't remember.

The lady however returned to school several weeks after the incident. She attended classes again with all the people who knew her story. Many people felt sorry for her, a few whispered but most only stared while she wasn't looking. Given the nature of school environments, events eventually overtook other events and it was no longer the most talked about story on campus.

One thing I do know is she was an inspiration to my friends and I. No doubt she would have had to deal with a lot of pain beneath it all but we all were so impressed at how she would return to her daily activities and act normal again. Then again I think about it and of course she needed to be normal again. And in being normal, to me she became an icon and a lesson I would never forget.

Shame and stigma have kept too many women silent. While you shouldn't wear your heart on a sleeve. Women need to learn to fight when it is required.

She may appear normal on the outside but only God knows what is going g on inside. No one can take away the pan.
Sad that it is the victim that gets punished by the society.

Dear Deliverer, make no mistakes, there is no excuse for rape. No means no. A man is expected to be able to control his desires anything short of that is an animalistic behavior. If your point is valid then trust is dead and every man must be regarded as a potential rapist. #thatincludesyou

I don't agree with you that a girl should be raped because she visited a guy but girls should stop visiting guys they do not have plans to get intimate with.
Keep your associations limited to lecture rooms.

WHILE WE CRUCIFY RAPISTS......LET US RESERVE SOME NAILS FOR THE FOOLISH GIRLS OUT THERE...

A woman is expected to know whom she visits anything short of that is a stupidity that deserves no pity.

you totally misunderstood my point..

i didn't say a girl should be raped for visiting a guy she doesn't know too well....I'm saying peradventure she's raped, 80% of the blame is hers....and she should not come here to seek pity..
Re: Everyone On Campus Knew She Had Been Raped... by atynu: 12:15pm On Aug 20, 2015
A woman owes it to herself to be wise in her associations, you are absolutely right. Some don't know better though. And the rapists of such women must be crucified regardless.

She may be stupid but she doesn't deserve to be raped.

My two cents.

If the dude lied in his comment, please point it out. If he made a fact, I guess it is more shame on you cos he seemed to have said something you've done before, something you're bout to do again, and something you'll do again and again, unless it HITS you hard before you learn

You and deliverer and anyone that thinks like you both ought to be ashamed of themselves.
Rape is a criminal offence and a serious one at that. There can be no justification.
If a girl visits you that does not justify you raping her.

As for your insults.. I take them with grace...
From the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.

I have had male friends since I was a child and most of them have remained my very good friends till date. We have very good friendships and they never laid a finger on me with or without my consent. Platonic friendships between the opposite sex do exist and today our kid`s play with one another and visit one another.

Insult I never intended such. And I'm not trynna justify rape either. You have a point actually, and it'll be immature of me to start an argument.

Are you aware that many rapes were committed by people who knew the victims? In many cases, they are hardly strangers.

If a girl has 80% of the blame because she was the one who went to visit the guy in question, then Like someone said, you're telling us to never trust men. To consider all of you or at least most of you as rapists.

If one can't be friendly with a guy without being blamed when he decides to behave like an animal, what's the motive to continue?

You're going to say the solution is to not visit strange guys. Then I tell you again that many times the rapist isn't a strange fellow. What say you then? That we should keep all of them at arms length because any of them can turn out to be a rapist and we would be blamed for it?

Be careful what you preach dude.

Majority of rape victims are raped by people they know. Until we all stop being judgemental, and give support to victims instead of even blaming them it will continue.
It's so sad some men lack the self control, and still try to justify rape. Oh, she wears skimpy clothes, oh she's too full of herself, etc. We seem to have forgotten our forefathers were practically naked, and rape was frowned upon. Any culprit was shamed and dealt with, some places still have their women wearing no clothes with their boobs all exposed (is it in Togo or cotonou?) Yet rape incidences are not common and no one dares blame the victim and perpetrators of such barbarism are dealt with by their society.
I think rape should carry a much stricter and severe penalty so that perpetrators will think twice about ruining even their own lives before doing it.

Is that what you understood by that statement?
Let me re-write it for you.

If you do not have intentions of having more than a platonic relationship with a guy,limit your associations to public places.You can meet at the parks,classrooms etc.It's a precaution!

I hope you understand this above.

I never said or implied 'face the consequences of rape' as you misunderstood it.Did you read my first post above?

What right do you have to mention my moniker and tag me in this hogwash?

Do not ever try it in your NL life again.

It is your father,,brother and every male relative in your imbecilic family who are rapists and potential rapists. And they have all raped you,,your mother and every silly female relative in your Godforsaken family.

And you all will continue to be raped till death.
