SERIOUS: How would a women feel if she is being raped?

I wonder, in different cultures, how would a women feel if she is being raped?

What are the similar feelings?

What are the different feelings?



Why I ask? I just watched a Chinese documentary show of female rape victums. And some victums feel that as if they are 'a damaged flower'. So I want to know how female from other cultures feel about rape.
SERIOUS: How would a women feel if she is being raped?
when I was raped it was my first time having sex and I dont even remember it...I think it is better that way I mean I remember in the morning the ****** getting off of me and all I had was one gulp of a drink that he had mixed me in the evening. what I remember is waking up to him thrusting me and it hurt a little bit then him getting off me then walking around the room and me thinking what the **** happened here I went to the bathroom and there was blood in my underwear not a lot but enough. I didnt stay very long then I reacted very differently then other women ir girls my age I guess I said to my gf that U had sex and she was like alright way to go and I just went along with it but then I left and I walked six hours to get home in a snow strom I was trying to hitch hike but no one was stopping i didnt really care it was hitting me more and I just wanted to die that day. then I seen a woman through the snow blowing and she was at the end of her lane way she would have drove me home but she had a broken arm and so she then said I had to come in and she gave me hot tea and cookies and a warmer jacket and she said for me to stay as long as I wanted I would have phoned home for a ride but my mother and I just dont get a long. When I got home that night I showerewd for at least 3 hours that I remember and I didnt talk to anyone in my family or friends that phoned. then later I tried to talkj to my mom but just couldnt bring myself to do it cause we have never been close like that so then I left crying I walked around my small home town and something came over me...pure evil I hated everyone and everything I seen a woman and her small child and I wanted to steal her purse i started to stalk them like a ******* vampire then Ifelt their fear and stopped thank god...then I surpressed it and kept telling myself over the years that not all men r like this asshole bt I found I have just gone from one bad relationship to another and now that I feel healthyer inside it is starting to hit me that I was raped and I was digusted by all men and I will never be the same again...but there is one man that makes me feel like a real woman should he understands what I have been through and he excepts me and I find that I love him and I want to give him children...but even still I get a feeling every now and again that Im anxious and I want to be rid of that one day...and not let one guy contintue to destroy my happiness
Reply:Violated, abused, scared, threatened, weakened, hurt, mortified, damaged - I think all of these are universal. A damaged flower is still damaged. How would you think women feel - a woman is a woman, regardless of culture. I don't think there is any culture where a woman would not feel these things if she were allowed to - that is the only difference - the way the culture "allows" or condones one expressing their rights or feelings - sadly many still believe women to be inferior and therefore women aren't given the rights to say how they feel. Instead they have to suffer inside. Several cultures prey on the weak or the damaged and view them as inferior - any admittance to any mental struggle or disease is like putting yourself into exile. You are no longer viewed the same. So - regardless of what a woman of another culture says - what she feels may be very different - but she may be so used to not expressing herself, even she doesn't know.
Reply:I know as a Black female, if I were ever raped (and I pray that I never am), I would feel violated and taken advantage of. Studies have shown that most rapists are some one the female they rapped knows like a close friend or even a class mate. I would further go to feel that I couldn't trust guys any more and would never pursue a relationship.
Reply:you feel dirty, no matter how many times you take a bath, you never feel clean. Later in life you think about it and when your husband wants to hold you and can't stand to be touched. A women deep pain about being raped never goes a way. It is the cruelest thing you could to do to a women.
Reply:I would think it would hurt, since she wasn't ready for it.



Might feel like getting robbed. or if someone broke into your car and took your stereo.
Reply:Seriously violated of human dignity %26amp; personal freedom. A woman's sense of respect %26amp; self respect would be broken in worst way possible.

only in Arab countries they punish women for adultery if they are raped. You should read / see what Pakistan does to its women o belive it. Its disgusting.
Reply:Robbed of something you can never, never, never get back. Invaded and victimized. Anger. Pain. Numb. Broken. Shattered. I can only imagine how tramatic it must be. I think the feeling is the same no matter where the woman is from.



What is different is how the people in her culture would view it. That is when it could get twisted. Some people may blame her for the rape or just call her dirty and unworthy of love...which is the worst than the rape itself, in my opinion, since the poor woman is no support from her own people after being brutalized. It is a very, very sad and detrimental thing. I would never wish that upon anyone! EVER!



Just thinking about it and answering this questions gives me the creeps. Imagine who the women feel that have experienced this. I read an article in Oprah Magazine about the women being raped in the Congos. It was very disturbing. Some would be raped for days and weeks on end from the rebels in that area. Some would finally start a new life and begin to recover when they got raped again.



Its very painful to even read. This is the world we live in...

Here we are on this side of the world with our biggest concerns being, "What colour should I dye my hair?!" while women are giving birth to children born from rape...



Imagine.



We are spoiled brats...
Reply:Canadian.... I would feel violated
Reply:This has nothing to do with culture, it has to do with the human mind. Some cultures are taught to except such things, but that doesn't control what a woman feels in her head or heart.
Reply:Enjoy the difference
