The guys in 'islamic' countries cant blame it on alcohol as in coutries were alcohol is openly tolerated.

Here in britain alcohol abuse gets the blame for alot of violence against all people women, men, children - from domestic violence, street fighting after closig time to rape.

Yet this happens not infrequently in Pakistan, India, Afganistan, Africa, and other countries. This happens in male dominated cultures. The more equity women have in a culture, or society the less this would happen. Rape is a way in which men express their need to control. But men should not be so insecure, the "equity" that women would express would result in a nurturing of them as well as their society, culture, and first of all their family. It is as if the men who are so insecure are afraid of their own shadow!

Yes, but rape also happens in the western world too. It happens more than gets reported. If you think about it, rape probably doesnt happen anymore frequently in those countries than the western world (compared to the population).

Wherever there are wicked people, rape will be there. And as long as there are those willing to standby it will continue.

Yes Bang, you are right. Rape happens everywhere--even between husband and wife, father and daughter, father and son, son and mother. I think the statistics say one rape every 7 seconds worldwide, and that's low because of all the underreporting. Yes rape certainly happens in the west!
