being raped as an honor crime

once a young woman is raped her reproductive value pl=nges to zero

no one will marry a non-vi=gin

there is one way out of the dilemma easily ap=roved by both kin groups in the Indian sub-continent

<=iv>the rapist will present a large dowry to the victim's family, thus =aying a tax for the rape

and marry the girt, thus=restoring her reproductive value

she has no= only had sex with one man, her husband

but Jeffr=y—what a fate, now to live as the wife of a man who abused you

now let us say that is not an option

</=iv>

often (Hindu) you are re-raped multiple times in public, often by =our kin-men

and then killed

<=iv>what the hell is this

we believe it is in part=trying to scare other girls in line

all best
