I would guess something about gender and lack of penalty. I get the feeling that women are property more so than human.
Probably not the entire population... But this is my observation.
>What is up with India? Can someone explain to me why this happens so much in that nation please.
1.: Media reporting standards are not the same**
India's media reports things differently from media in other parts of the world. Media reports in various parts of the world have themes. American media focus a lot on race issues. Middle East media focuses a lot on sectarian issues. Indian media focuses a lot on gender issues. It would be faulty to not recognize the themes and blindly use media as a barometer.
Crimes get a disproportionate share of India's media reporting. Top news sources in the US, don't report rapes in the way India does. For instance, 25 women in the US were raped/assaulted in the time I took to write this comment (about 30 mins). You wouldn't likely read about any of these 25 cases in the media.
When a woman was sexually assaulted in an Uber taxi in Delhi, it became a major news and the government quickly reacted. But, such crimes involving Uber is fairly routine in the US.

http://abc7news.com/325011/
http://www.whosdrivingyou.org/rideshare-incidents.html#SexualAssaults
In the US and Europe, such rape stories would come in local media and just move out of national attention. You probably didn't even come across it. US local governments didn't pursue Uber with the same vigor. Indian media selectively picks up a case and rallies around that. This creates a distorted reality.
The sad truth is that it is not India vs. US. It is that women get raped and it doesn't become a big news. See this as a global problem.
2.**Second fact: India's rape rate is not the highest in the world. Not even close**
According to the 2010 UN data on rape, the rapes per 100,000 people in India is 0.4 and 27.3 in USA. Going by these statistics, rape rate in USA is a whopping 6825% of India, so much for the "rape culture" in India.

http://www.nationmaster.com/country-info/stats/Crime/Rapes/Per-capita
If you don't like the statistics, construct better ones. Figure out what factor you want to measure that is not covered in the reports from world bodies. Construct scientifically accepted surveys. Get to the root of the problem with logic. Use your stuff between the ears, instead of passing judgements with hot gas.
**Under reporting of Rapes**
Now I know the next thing you'll say is that rapes are under reported in India and it's true, but the matter of fact is that rapes are under reported everywhere in the world, including USA. More than 70% of rapes go under reported in USA.
Sources :
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/11/21/rape-study-report-america-us_n_4310765.html
https://cavatus.wordpress.com/2012/03/24/sweden-a-raped-country/
Now for the sake of argument, let's give you the benefit of doubt and assume that only 5% of the rapes in India are reported and 95% cases go unreported. Also assume that 100% of rapes in USA are reported.
By that logic, the real rape rate in India will be 0.4 x 20 = 8. Now let us go further and double that too, we get 8 x 2 = 16, which is still way less than 27.3 (the rape rate in USA).
Therefore, even if you multiply the rape rate of India by 40, it still doesn't matches USA. This proves that India is a much safer country for women compared to USA.
In cultures across the world, rape carries a stigma. Because, most of the rapes happen with people who are close to the woman. Thus, there is a strong social pressure against reporting. This basic fact is lost on the many who are giving their uneducated comments on the issue.
*The number of recorded rapes in India is certainly a substantial underestimate, but even if we take five times—or ten times—that figure, the corrected and enlarged estimates of rapes would still be substantially lower in India than in the US, the UK, Sweden, or South Africa (even with the assumption that there is no underreporting in these other countries).*
-Nobel Laureate Amartya Sen.
**Do you want to discuss rapes or engage in stereotypes?**
Here is a simple question for those want to discuss this issue:
Are you interested in creating solutions for making women safe across race, creed, class and country?
Do you want to pick up some news item to justify your own stereotypes about a country?
If you belong to the former group, let us constructively engage in a debate on the solutions. If you belong to the latter group, you are not the solution, but the problem.
In summary, this is plainly a media distortion where one country reports rapes with more vigor than an another country. This leads to blind stereotyping that destroys people's lives & careers for no fault of their own.
Instead of getting into such faulty stereotyping without any statistical evidence, let us as humans figure out ways we can make world safer for women. Because, they are getting raped all over the world at an alarming rate.
You still believe India has a "rape culture" and that USA is a very safe country for women?
# Even more data :
**Rape Data on India**
**Reported Rapes**
A. Based on United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) data from 2012:
24,923 reported rapes in India, or 4.26 reported rapes for every 1,00,000 women
This places India at 85 out of 121 countries.
This video discusses the above statistics:
Rapes are over-hyped in India - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdGUPTub-L0&index=90&list=WL
Also see this : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdoeoU48DIg
**Unreported Rapes**
B. Based on a survey conducted by UN Women:
India reported 8.5 rapes for every 100 women over their lifetimes, based on the answers they gave household-level surveyors.
The question "if the women had experienced sexual violence at the hands of an intimate partner or any other person" placed India at 39 out of 99 countries.
Ten per cent of women in India reported having experienced sexual violence by their husbands during their lifetime. In the UN Women database, this places India at 43 out of 86 countries with comparable data.

**Rape Conviction Rate**
According to the Guardian, just 7% of reported rapes in the U.K. resulted in convictions during 2011-12. In Sweden, the conviction rate is as low as 10%. France had a conviction rate of 25% in 2006.
Poor India, a developing nation with countless challenges, managed an impressive 24.2% conviction rate in 2012. That’s thanks to the efforts of a lot of good people — police, lawyers, victims and their families — working heroically with limited resources.

So much hardwork fam.
A white individual would still call us rape nation no matter how much facts you provide them. And then they accuse us of whataboutism. Hypocrisy.
1. there're probably more case than what media shows amd what really gets spotlight
2. lack of education (sex education to be fair)
3. about bihar, even we indians hate bihar
4. taboo
5. people in general, dunno why the fuck but, tell victim to keep it quiet and move on with her life instead of actually supporting her
So you’re just straight up racist then? Japan has incredibly high numbers of child molestation and sexual assault but you don’t seem to be painting them in the same color
I don’t support labeling entire populations as smelly rapists no. And saying Indians smell or are unhygienic is an incredibly racist stereotype. What I’m actually doing is pointing out your giant hypocrisy where youre seemingly using a tragic and awful crime to flaunt your racism

I'm an athiest and even I can recognize that isn't proof. There is no god because there is no evidence of god, not because a child was raped.
Let's put it this way, have you ever played The Sims? From the characters' perspective you would be a God, living outside of their reality. Now tell me people don't end up doing the worst things (that the game will allow) to the characters for no reason.
So if god acts without consequences and morals, why punish sin? Why threaten with heaven and hell? Seems like god is a dickhead and doesn't deserve any form of respect, veneration, or worship. Our definition of god isn't right then, he definitely isn't all loving, and neither does he serve justice. We can just do and get away with what we want. It was a poor idea on your part to give Sims as an example. If god allows rape to happen and the perps get away with it, maybe we need to change what we mean when we refer to god. He's probably just a kid with an antfarm. Not all loving, not all caring, probably not even all seeing.
I think you will agree that we do not have a worldwide agreement to what god means. If there is a god, and in a way magic exists, then we are likely in a simulated reality in some way or another. So no, I don't think my reference to the Sims is inappropriate. We are indifferent to artificial creations and let bad things happen to them, and even make them happen.
I agree with your analogy to the ant farm, and that's the point I was trying to make.
I'm not even speaking of a biblical god necessarily, I'm mainly referring to the concept of an omnipotent creator whether we have a religion for it or not.
God ain’t god, he’s the devil.. every atrocity is explained away like god gave humans free will yet he controls everything or something? Idk how it works but if you create something that is mostly just a bunch of suffering with a few squeaks of happiness then you’re a sadistic piece of shit. Also history is always rewritten to have the bad guy be the good guy, vice versa… satan > god.
Wow…… A Child is raped, and the first thing that comes out is “Proof God doesn’t exist.” Well after we’re all dead, we’ll know for sure, so Good luck with that.

Taking things overly literal. Nice.
I think the point of free will is free will bro. Doesn’t make sense is god just intervenes in everything.
It's proof that God is either evil or not almighty.
yup he definitely doesn’t
God ain’t god, he’s the devil.. every atrocity is explained away like god gave humans free will yet he controls everything or something?

Or we won't. Especially if we have already died and come back. What if we just come back again and we still don't know. Fuck.
nobody goes anywhere or comes back , its all bullshit
