Answer 1

1.    I would feel very bad when someone very close to me raped. I would immediately report the case to a police station so that the victim could find justice. I would also offer to be there for any of the things they might be going through, like going to the hospital with her.

2.   Rape culture is a sociological theory of a setting in which rape is pervasive and normalized due to societal attitudes about gender and sexuality. It is also an environment whose prevailing social attitudes have the effect of unconcerned or normalizing sexual abuse and assault. Yes, rape culture is already established in Bangladesh.

3.   It is caused by drug abuse, idleness, and wars and natural disasters.

4. As a member of the society I can prevent the crime by reporting the cases. I would also encourage parents to keep doors locked at all times and instruct their children never open your door to anyone. The government can prevent it by coming up with policies that ruthlessly punish the offenders.
