#292010-12-19 05:28This is bullshit... Rape is a hate crime and crime should be punished just like in any other country... South Africa doesn't deserve our respect until they respect their people and protect them. |

#332013-06-09 04:06What's absolutely ridiculous is the fact that the euphemism "corrective rape" is exactly that -- a euphemism. If the female victim of "corrective rape" had instead been a male -- a gay male who was (sexually) assaulted, beaten, and/or murdered, NO DOUBT it would be labelled a "hate crime". But apparently, when it comes to crimes against women -- even those which are obviously hate crimes due to the specific targeting of their gender and/or sexual orientation -- the descriptive language is toned down. Euphemisms and coy "softening" terms are frequently used in place of stronger, shock-expressive terms like "hate crime". I'm not surprised: this is a cultural attempt to stifle knowledge of the pervasiveness of violence against women. |
