We have always being taught that women's body will cause men to commit sin.

We were told that if women showed too much of their body it would cause men to do stupid things.

Lets be clear: A woman's body is not dangerous to you, her body will not cause you harm, it will not make you do stupid things.

If you do stupid things it is because you choose to do stupid things.

Do not blame the women for wearing what works for them and what they want rather blame the men who do stupid things because they cannot hold themselves from being stupid

Whats this one saying?

Its one of the things i believe in.

Every action has a cause.

So u cant actually and wholly blame the guy cos had it been the lady didnt were seductive dresses, the urge couldnt have been there.


And a lady dressing indecently, what actually does she wants other than attraction and possibly rape?

Don't you know that men's unclad body are explicit images and sensual to female too. They bear theirs and don't complain, you feel you have the right to dictate what they should wear while they can't dictate yours. Egalitarianism 101. Enough of women marginalization and sexism.

Society where women exposes some part of their body witness less rape rate than those where women cover-all, have higher rape rate. Human tends to get bored seeing or repeating same thing severely and continuously while we become more curious with limited supply of such things. Compare arab and rape rates, then most secular countries and their rape rates.

grin Thesonofmark, FrancisTony is actually male and in his late teens. He's dark in complexion, got a chubby face with visible beards and a big butt grin. I've known him from way back and could vouch for his gender. grin

The thing I don't understand is how his reasoning got this bad. grin

It is not the woman's fault that you cannot hold yourself from acting on your raging sexual urge, it is your fault in entirety if you fail to know when restraint is necessary and how to employ proper self control.

Blaming the women for the weakness, silliness and the inability of man to have a self control principle is very wrong.

She has the right to wear what wants and feels comfortable in, what ever reaction you allow yourself in response to that is totally you doing and not the woman's

Please will you just stop this unfounded and childish theory of yours?

A lady who dresses modestly will do herself a great good as well as minimize greatly illicit desires from men.

Except you are a boy then i can excuse your rethorical theory but real men are visual in nature and skimpy dresses expose a woman s body which ofcourse will apparently give room to lust even if you are very disciplined as a man you may have to really control yourself.

ladies should at least help in this matter and always dress responsibly.

I would personally give you a million likes if I could. I'm yet to come across a lady blaming a guy for wearing his singlet & boxers. A lot of (Nigerian) men are just chauvinist pigs.

Why.

Ohh you feel they don't have sexual explicit feeling. They do. The problem was the long age marginalization and discrimination against women, then they tends to succumb instead of responsing actively to sexual impulses like men. They always surprise men whenever the act begins, informing men that they are more sexually active than them but always have to suppress it because of millenia of men's subjugation.

this is total BS.

I hate hearing stuff like this. do you also know that many women get turned on from seeing men with bare chests and boxer shorts?? you men are just too hypocritical. what about instances when you're lying Hot on your bed without any woman in sight? will you then say a woman aroused your sexual urge??

it may interest you to know that majority of rape cases are done by pervert men to underage girls (mostly preteen). only pervert men with pervert tendencies won't reason rationally.

Any man who cannot control his urge around a scantily dressed lady is no diffrerent from a lower animal and is a lesser being.

Please, what are men of today seeing tht 19th Century men did not see? Before the West brought clothes, were our forefathers not daunted with the daily sight of bare-brea-sted women? Did they r-ape anyone?

If anyone has become disgraceful, it is the male folk of this century that are a disgrace to their predecessors. I wholly support real men like FrancisTony and johnydon22 who have learnt to control their body.

You cannot call yourself a Christian or even a man when you allow your flesh control you

You sir, are the one with an "unfounded and childish theory". If you think "dressing modestly" will stop a sick r.apist from carrying out his sick act, then you're either not thinking deeply or you're just swimming in utter delusion.

India has the highest r-ape cases in the world. Not USA or France, not even Jamaica or Brazil. India with all their coverings.

If you cannot control that thing between your legs, don't blame anyone for your short-comings. Deal with it yourself. Only an adolescent has urges he can't control. A real man will need to see a fully n-ude body to react blindly

If this were written by a man, I wouldn't even bother quoting. But seriously? Are you subliminally justifying rape? In your own words, what justification does one have to r.ape/molest a woman? That she wore skimpy clothes, or even stark nude is no justification.
It really is a man's world, and the ideology of the misogynistic lot have sipped into your mind...

I disagree with your point of view in that its ok for a woman to wear "what works for her". Yes a man shouldn't blame a woman solely for his lack of self control. However, you must realise that we (both men and women) hasthe power to influence one another by our conduct, this is why the word modesty and decency is used. One of the worlds major problem is that we all are selfish in thing we do. We always consider self to be primary not considering that our actions affect people around us positively or negetively.
When I see a skimpily dressed lady, I can make some inferences about her circle of influence. I believe the men around a lady are largely responsible for her kind of dressing. If a lady's father, brother, boyfriend, male friends or even husband were to disaprove of a skimpy dress, the likelihood of her dressing nude or skimpy is almost zero, 'cos women love and need attention from men mostly and when they don't get it and instead Get a rebuke, that women will be sure to change her mode of dreesing ( this is true in most cases, some ladies have crossed the bounderies of sanity into insanity and so this may not apply to such ladies)

Wrong. Women taunting men with the possibility of more by being semi-nùde heightens our curiosity and leads us to crave the women more.

As usual , the religious zealots heaps all the blame on women. The main aim
of this post is to control how women should perceive their body and shame
anyone who disagrees with the OP's point of view.
When does it become the prerogative of male control freaks to determine what
a woman can and can't wear ?

It is just too easy to blame others for someone's action.
A man rapes a 6 year old girl , he blames the girl ,
A man pours acid on his ex lover he blames her.

Hiding behind religion does not in any way mask the stealthy purpose of this thread.
The term "decent" is always subjective.

heightened curiosity should not lead to r-ape.

You cannot go to a court and defend ra-pist by citing the victim's dress code in a sane society. Only mad people do that

Johnydon22 you re the best. Williamso I respect you. Safarigirl and co, you guys are wonderful. Women are really dying slowly. Women are really being murdered indirectly by these chauvinists in Nigeria especially here in nairaland. We are women. We are proud of who we are. Sexists should please allow us to be. We want to be free, alive and well respected like them too. This is not equality per se but to be given a sense of belonging.
