shaming rape victims in the Somali community.

[Gibiin-Udug]

Why do Somalis shame rape victims? They isolate the victim, espicially the older generations. They will go as far as blaming the victim and protecting the rapist.

I was recently told back in the days, when a geeljiire rapes a girl, the poor girl would be ostracized, to the point the victim would run away and form a new identity.

The Somali older generation are really shitty people.

Because they see the woman as damaged goods

I agree with you sis the way we treat rape victims is horrible

Well yeah that is an established fact. The older generation also did the whole female genital mutilation thingy. So what do you expect from such jaahil people.

Add us, Morocco and Malaysia to the list. After compensation is paid, we too force the victim to marry her rapist.

I don't have time right now, but I will show you evidence from a book written on the issue in Somalia. Actually, most of the pressure will be exerted on the Rapist to marry her in-case a pregnancy materialises because in most cases, the victim is illiterate and poor and can't handle a child on her own. Furthermore, the stigma attached to having a child out of wedlock is unbearable for her. It happens mate.

Beenawaas We know our culture ain't perfect but no need to lie about it. Kulaha running away and forming new identity

It's true though...

 

[SecretAgent]

Women take their advice from the devil it's why hell will be full of women.

 

[cantspeak]

Yeah Im not touching this topic

 

[Hemaal]

It's true though...

it's not true! Where would she go? Please don't talk about things you have no clue of, the only aspect where running away is involved in our culture is eloping. Kulaha rape victim is running to where exactly? Do you think she'll find a safe haven anywhere other than her family's?

What they did was, if there was a rape, the victim would be wed off to the rapist so people wouldn't say the family had an illegitimate child. And that's wrong.

Whatever it is, it's sick and disgusting and it needs to change. Too much obsession with women and their behavior.
