If you are saying that molestation is a Western thing, I'm afraid you are wrong.

I dont mean it like that, but i mean, it never happend in such a way in India, and trust me, i know. My mum must read every single newspaper in India. It did happen, no doubt, but never like this.

I mean like, in india, moguls would come and loot the mandirs, which is the centre of the wealth for a village. Ok, now the village rebuilds and gets more wealth, moguls do the same thing.

I fail to see how events that occurred some 300 years ago are still relevant. Furthermore one of the reasons for this problem was a lack of military force amongst the Indian kingdoms the Mughals attacked, not due to them being too pacifist in nature.

India are still too weak today. They can't even manage to get Shivaji's sword back, who the Queen (of UK) is using as a backscratcher.

First of all everyone living in India is not a Hindu. Second of all, last I checked India has not been under British rule for over 60 years now.

I can't even count how many Filipino movies are about that very topic.
