People who rape have some mental issues that haven't been acknowledged.

When I read about rape cases in India, a lot of these stories are outright madness. It's not just rape (weird as i write this), it's mutilation and gang rapes. They go after underage girls or girls with vulnerabilities.

There is something Seriously fundamentally wrong with the persons mindset. And in India, I can hands down say people have a lot of mental challenges/illnesses that are not talked about or shared due to taboo. These issues explode because of the lifestyle people are living with.

There's no justification for rape, but we have to look at a larger picture of WHY. Was it it because the vigilant dad beat his mom, was it because he was beat by his mom, is it due to financial major frustration (due to unemployment or inability to get educated) which leads to him not ever getting married and etc?

It's like something is brewing inside them that pushes them to do such things.

Also we need to look at our society which shuns victims for talking out. This comes from family to even the justice system (police not taking it seriously or the law is not supportive).

Some of these guys think they can get away with it because they probably got away with it earlier.
