Weak

Delhi medical student gang rape case isn't an eye-opener..our eyes were peeled open many years back. But we have to live on with our daily lives after criticizing.
I am someone's daughter, sister, colleague and friend too just like the medical student in Delhi. I too watch evening movie shows and return home at 11. Does that mean that every time I board a bus,train,taxi or auto I havta thank the driver that he didn't choose to rape me!!!
Is this what we have become? Independent, hard -working , educated women living at the mercy of men who can't resist their animal instincts the moment they sight anything close to female. Is there any possible solution to this or should we shut ourselves in our homes and pray to be safe each day?
