First, rape is universal; it’s universal across time, across cultures and societies, and even across many species. This fact is clearly validated by data in biologist Randy Thornhill and anthropologist Craig T. Palmer’s book A Natural History of Rape: Biological Bases of Sexual Coercion. Specifically, Thornhill and Palmer’s documentation supports the contention that no rape-free human society has ever existed and that many non-human animal species do engage in raping behaviors. If rape were an act promoted or encouraged by specific patriarchal or political environments, as feminists assert, it’s inconceivable that rape would be found in all societies throughout recorded time. Similarly, if rape were an act solely dependent upon patriarchal cultural learning, one would find it difficult to explain the prevalence of raping behaviors among animal species (other than homo-sapiens) without such a cultural influence. Rape’s universality thus emphasizes the point that rape is “natural,” though obviously not good, and that it isn’t created by any particular sociopolitical environment.

the behaviors and motives of rapists are comparable to that of other criminal types and, when analyzed in this straightforward manner, the sexual motivation of rapists becomes apparent. Consider this. If a criminal sees your money and wants it, he takes it. If a criminal sees your car and wants it, he takes it. If a criminal sees you and wants you sexually, he takes you. These are amongst the immoral tendencies of criminals—they take what they want with a callous disregard for their victims. If you ponder the fundamental motivation behind these various criminal acts, a parallel analogy holds true. The mugger is motivated by his desire for your money, the car thief by his desire for your car, and the rapist by his desire for you sexually. The primary motives of all criminal types, including rapists, are easily discernable—no conspiratorial explanations are necessary.
All the 11 MP and leaders who said that women going out at night and her dress is what causes rape are old men .They have never said that the man's anatomy was the cause.Today women have to work to keep the home running.The Indian constitution states that an Indian women has equal rights. Then how can these undeveloped leaders talk such nonsense.

Indian constitution has specified equal rights for men and women in certain aspects only, and not in each and every aspect. If so they why call a Bride a Bride and not Bridegroom? Certain things in the human life are simply based on creation of nature and we have to accept it in right perspectives.
