onthesoi Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 4 hours ago, Father Fintan Stack said: Unfortunately it actually has a lot of truth in it. As I posted earlier a lot of Thai English-Language literature references rape and domestic sexual abuse, often the victim feels obligated to marry or falls in love with the perpetrator. It is also evidenced frequently on Thai TV, with rape romance being a prominent plot-line on Thai soap operas. You should try reading some Pira Sudham or other local authors that write in the English language. It will teach you more about the country and you can respond with a bit more dignity and authority rather that just ill-informed reactionary abuse. Here is some evidence for you: In Thai soap operas, rape is routinely depicted as a precursor to romance, with female protagonists shown falling in love with their rapists. http://sea-globe.com/rape-scenes-thai-soap-operas/ Public Anger Is Growing At How Thailand’s TV Shows Glorify Rape: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/thailand-rape-soap-operas_us_582c733fe4b01d8a014b800e I love you, I rape you: The strange relationship between love, rape, and Thai TV: https://coconuts.co/bangkok/features/love-rape-strange-relationship-love-rape-thai-tv/ And so on and so on.

I was responding the poster's allegation that the previous poster was being racist when he was 100% correct about Thai rape culture and rape romance and I have provided evidence to that effect. Anyone that has watched Thai soaps for more than 5 minutes or has an idea about Thai culture knows it to be correct also. I have never mentioned anything about UK conviction rates on this thread. Its not very complicated... I believe your original premise was about fictional rape depictions in thai soap operas being somehow responsable for real rapes in thailand or as you put it: Thai rape culture? I was merley asking you to explain the much higher incidents of rape in western countries(4 times higher in the US, 3 times higher in the UK) that have no such soap operas? ..& once more, unsubstantiated opinion articles are not evidence of anything.

sawadeeken Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I just copied this from the Huffington Post and it is very fitting to this post or topic, and it quotes the present 'THAI' PM 'General' as being in agreement with the Thai male attitude that RAPE is 'normal' by the male............ Take a look............. Although it seems as though women are the only gender that are robbed of power through victim blaming, I believe men also experience a loss. This loss was publicly revealed by none other than Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha in September 2014. In response to the notorious murder of Briton Hannah Witheridge, he stated: “Tourists think that [they] can put on their bikinis and go anywhere they want. I ask, can you get away with wearing bikinis in Thailand?” In a later statement, he apologized, saying that he “just wanted to warn tourists that we have different traditions and they have to stay on their toes.” Therein lies an interesting irony in the prime minister’s statement. Men seem to lack the power to control their unparalleled sexual needs. It is not necessarily “bikinis” or revealing clothes that rob men of their senses, but a subscription to victim-blaming. In order to prevent culpability, men are deemed incapable of controlling their sexual urges. In this chain of logic, men become reduced to beings that cannot fight a primal urge. The wider societal implication is men receiving the message that they are not expected to uphold responsibility because their lack of control over lust is anticipated and excused. In this way, I wonder if we are setting our Thai men up to fail.

Ceruhe Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Ah this topic is getting better and better, unsure if it's about the deliberate talking past each other, wanting to make different points, strawmanning or whatever... On another note, just to add some fuel. Someone explain why 50 Shades of Grey is one of the most sold books in history. Also, why it's predominately women who buy/read it.

Mac98 Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 On 9/5/2017 at 0:28 AM, Docno said: Misleading headline. 2400 of 4000 reported cases ended in convictions. I don't know how that compares to other jurisdictions, but we don't know how many cases of the 4000 never made it to court because of lack of evidence or because the charges were unfounded (it does happen!). The number in the headline here is based on an estimate of unreported cases (only God knows how accurate that is!) and assumes all allegations of rape are true. Exactly. To say rapes not reported because of low conviction rate is a false assumption. The conviction rate in cases brought to court is about 60%.

RawboneFunksta Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 This sounds familiar. Western feminist organisations cite 1 woman in 4 will be raped on US college campi but the 'statistics' have long been proven erroneous. 4000 rapes per year? If many other rapes are unreported, how does anyone know about them? Hogwash! In the west sexual assault and rape have dropped considerably since 2005 but one constantly hears the media discuss the rape epidemic or rape culture. I wonder how much of this is real and how much conjured to gain charitable endorsements for organisations promoting the lies? The west is beginning to wake up now and several rape accusers have been convicted as well as college authorities being criticised for simply accepting the word of the accuser. It is a serious problem that all people would like to see eradicated but making up statistics or blaming all men does not help anyone except the organisations who get government money to 'raise awareness' etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
