I got a copy of that advertisements funded, freely distributed Chinese weekly tabloid, the name of it is a kind of fruit that is eaten as vegetable, you guessed it.
There is this piece about security in shopping mall, as last week, 2 separate cases of single women being attacked in the carpark of shopping mall happened, so a few Chinese dailies are running stories on the safety of women in the public. This tabloid just just follow the trend.
Just where is the author of this piece from? Fantasy-Land? In this piece, he (the non de plume suggests it is a he) advises women not to dress provocatively, as this attract the attention of the would be attackers. Huh? Women are attacked because of what they wear? Get a reality check! Since when do you see those women who were mobbed, robbed, raped dressed in sexy, provocative attires? And their ages? Even grandmas got raped! Where do you see a grandma dress sexily in Malaysia?
And this man actually list this as number 1 in his advice. It is like saying those victims deserve it because they dressed provocatively. Those women did not dress provocatively when crimes happened to them.
And there is no editor in the tabloid? The editor lets this piece run. Just what is wrong with those people? Every time when the victims of crimes are women, there are always men telling women not to dress provocatively. Criminals pick their targets based on whatever factors, one of it is the weaklings, and women are always supposed to be weak, so they are more likely to be the targets.
We should compile a list of what victims were wearing when crimes happened to them. But even after we have proof that it had nothing to do with what women were wearing, will those men who live in Fantasy-Land come up with a new excuse to put the blame on women?
This is Malaysia.
看著這份免費,靠廣告維持的1/4開中文週報,報的名稱是一種被當作蔬菜食用的水果。
上星期發生了兩起女性在購物中心的停車場成爲罪犯的受害人的事件,所以這廣告週報也和其他中文日報一樣,談論女性在購物中的的停車場的安全問題。
這週報有一篇專題,執筆的是男人吧(照筆名來看該是男人)?在這專題中,作者以專家的口肳,列出多項女性本身該注意的事項,第一項是:
女性別穿的太感,這樣會使自己在公衆場所太引人注目,很容易被歹徒盯上。
你沒看錯,我也沒看錯、打錯,那以專家口肳寫的人的確是如此寫的。
女人是因爲穿得太性感才成爲受害人的?這話有甚麽根據?那作者是根據甚麽資料來如此寫的?他是從那兒來的?他有沒有看新聞的?老婆婆也被搶刧強姦,老婆婆也會穿得太性感,引來罪犯?馬來西亞有多少婆婆級的人會如此穿的?那些打刧,强姦的受害人,有那個是穿得像性感女神似的?
這作者竟然第一忠告就是說別穿得太性感,簡直就是在說受害人都是自找的。
罪犯在犯罪時,都是在有機會的情況下,向弱者下手。根本和受害人穿的是甚麽無關。
那小報沒有編輯的?這樣的文章也能刋出?編輯和作者都是住在幻想世界的?
該有人把受害人在案發時的穿著編成統計數字公佈出來。但公佈之後呢?就算我們有證據證明女性的穿著的性感指數和罪案的發生沒有關聯,那些住在幻想世界的男人又會幻想出新的說法,說這全是受害人自己的錯吧?真的是只在馬來西亞。
