hmmmm.....
my GF is Indian, she's been to Egypt, and a number of other countries... She said in Egypt there was a vibe sometimes of an enourmous amount of repression,where men so rarely seem to be around women other than their sisters/mothers, she was sometimes concerned about being groped in public places....... more so than in India, where her male relatives often stood in a box around her when they all went on busses and certain public places....
It's not necessarily the economic "undeveloped" thing, as it is the legacy of a long-term gender issues simmering..
argh, this really sucks...

It is horrible and also a great reason to stay the fuck out of the middle east entirely.

This is where I got the rape incident, but I was skimming through the iphone last night so I didn't read the entire article:

Was lucky to spend a month in Egypt, not long, but still managed to soak in a bit and loved the place. Though no doubt, it was full of the most vulgar men I've ever come across, and unfortunately this seemed to be a majority. So no surprise this happened, and spot on that it was stupid to send her into a mass crowd of hysterical men.

@george
i dont doubt that rape occurs in the USA, and i dont doubt thats a high number.
But in a society where policing is so poor (like an undeveloped country) you honestly think the rape occurrence's will be less than the US?
- off course not,
but it is not the society,
it is the fuckn assholes,georgesIII - Outside the US there's only desert Hombre...ItalianStallion

- are you kidding me?identity
- I can see what you're trying to highlight but it's not really a true comparison... is it?goldieboy
- one looks like she would belong, ethnically, in a crowd like that. a crowd that was feverish and nationalistic...identity
- You must be joking. The comparison is unfair here, but the OTHER way around. She'd look hotter in a studio.Gucci
- nice boobscannonball1978

^ both were assaulted but is it more of story because one was sexual in nature and the woman was more beautiful?

Its time to bomb the pyramids! That is what I would do if I was the USA government...- Well you are fucking stupid thenabettertomorrow

anderson cooper was assaulted too. Yes, its more of a story because its sexual. My point was that you don't send a VERY american looking person into the fray of what was a celebration with some anti-american undertones... Especially in the middle east where its still very much a machismo patriarchy.

I wish the poor women of Congo would have such a visibility,
they have been raped, tortured, mutilated, killed,it doesn't excuse the act, but this thread would have been already dead the subject wasn't a blonde african reporter.

Its more of a choice for the reporters. They know the danger but they still move forward. Courage I say.

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2…In the last ten years in Congo, hundreds of thousands of women have been raped, most of them gang raped. Panzi Hospital is full of them.
"All these women have been raped?" Cooper asked Dr. Mukwege, standing near a very large group of women waiting.
All the women, the doctor says, have been patients of his.
Within a week, Dr. Mukwege says this room will be filled with new faces, new victims.
"You know, they're in deep pain. But it's not just physical pain. It's psychological pain that you can see. Here at the hospital, we've seen women who've stopped living," Dr. Mukwege explains.
And not all the people the hospital treats are adults. "There are children. I think the youngest was three years old," Mukwege says. "And the oldest was 75."
- and you disagreed with my point about undeveloped countries generally having more rape occurrences?Hombre_Lobo
- By the way, that's why AIDS spreads so fast in Africa...ItalianStallion
- I didn't disagree, I said it was bs,
congo has been torn by one of the most evil war ever, can't compare it to a poor countrygeorgesIII - and if you dugg a little bit more and saw who profit from this war, you'll be profoundly disgusted.georgesIII
- so you think the development of a country and it policing does not effect rape occurrences?
Hombre_Lobo - sorry mate, but my country is considered poor, yet the rape is almost inexistent, would you say someone is more intelligent because he comes from a richer country?georgesIII
- because he comes from a richer country? or dumber because he comes from a poor country, same goes to yourgeorgesIII
- point rape stats may be higher in poorer country but its doesn't correlategeorgesIII
- i am of course generalizing. where you from btw?Hombre_Lobo

My ex girlfriend from 2003 was raped when she was a student by her teacher. I met her when she was in her early twenties and she wasn't totally over it. Being raped is a total loss of control, and it takes a long time to get over. I noticed some girls who've been sexually assaulted become more promiscious. They say a lot of porn stars have been sexually abused.
- oh my god man, thats horrific.
poor girl. must been tough for you too dude (obviously not by comparison).Hombre_Lobo - she handled it very well =)pinkfloyd
- thats good to know dude :)
i hope her teacher is locked up and being raped himself.Hombre_Lobo - thanks Hombre_Lobopinkfloyd
- oh my god man, thats horrific.
