A poll was conducted in Nigeria by the NOI, an opinion poll research organization, on what they believed was the main cause of rape. The results showed that 34 percent of the participants believed that indecent dressing was the main cause of rape in the society, 18 percent believed unemployment was the cause, 9 percent believed it was cause by lack of moral values, another 9 percents said it was caused by wrong upbringing 5 percent believed rape was caused by illiteracy to women's rights and ungodliness.
Judging by the results of the poll, the majority of the population believes that indecent dressing is the main cause of rape. Do you agree with the results? Is indecent dressing the main cause of rape in society? I would be more than happy to share what I believe on the topic right after I hear yours.
Indecent dressing is definitely a leading factor.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your opinion. However I am one to believe that indecent dressing plays no hand in rape and it is due to the lack of self control on the rapists part.
ReplyDeletei dont in anyway condone indecent dressing, but when i where cloths that lightly expose my cleavage or show legs when i where shorts that those not mean i want a lunatic to come and mess with me , pls learn to control your rotten manhood.

Thank you Uchenna. You are absolutely right. An individual's definition of indecent dressing should not be a justifiable reason for rape.. I will most definitely check it out!
DeleteLady G would you leave hard drugs in the presence of addicts? I believe dressing should be in moderate forms any for particular occasions. I am still loving your legs sha.
DeleteYes it is very important to teach ladies the appropriate dressing for different occasions but we should also teach men that because a lady is exposed does not mean she is asking for it. Now in the case of an addict (a sex addict to be precise), dressing on the lady's part definitely then becomes a factor. Lol thnx, my legs are grateful.
DeleteI believe its just ungodliness. Ungodliness is the combination of all that has been said: indecent dressing, lack of moral values, poor upbringing, etc. Romans 1:28 says "And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are convinient."
ReplyDeleteWell said.
DeleteLady G give us jist na ... You are not updating your blog for us. Tired of reading the old posts and admiring your picture .....
ReplyDeleteHaha I am very sorry for the little break. I will have a new fresh post up very very soon! Thank you for reading :)
DeleteI had to comment again. This whole thing about indecent dressing is stupid to me. I like to dress professional and nice, but there are some times that I want to show off the little curves I have. There are women who take pride in their bodies and want to flaunt it. Some people are just free spirits like me! LOL Sure some people will stare like perves.. I expect that, but rape. That's is just down right wrong. People need to learn how to have self control. So how someone dresses has nothing to do with it. The main factor is the rapist sick evil mind. Women shouldn't be afraid to wear short shorts on a hot summer day, just like guys don't worry when then have no shirt on at all when it's hot out.
ReplyDeleteWonderfully said Ms Malone!! You took the words right out of my mouth. Every woman has a right to her body, and should feel free to do and wear whatever she likes. I've often said that even if I was to walk stack naked down the street, it still gives nobody the right to touch me. Thank you for your contribution :)
DeleteLOL @missesmalone showing of little curves and @Luvly LadyG walking down the street stark naked. Rape is an evil act which must be condemned and punished openly to discourage other seek perverts out there. I will always remind people that rapists attack even women who are fully clothed in Iro and Buba or even Baggy Jeans and Sweaters. However let us not encourage these pervs by over flashing our goodies in ways that are inappropriate or even worse in places that are not condusive for such displays. I personally love nice legs and see no reason why a lady cannot flaunt her nice legs wearing a short dress or a skirt but bum shorts at 10pm strolling down a dark street alone is an invitation for trouble. Ladies please remember that it is the woman who is always left with the scars and not the male pervert so why not take precautions? At least be cautious until all societies introduce their own versions of a SEX OFFENDERS REGISTER.
