In the Indian Penal Code, there are several sections mentioned that only talk about women’s safety, protection, and injustice. No lawsuit is made in favour of men and that is why society is not aware of the situations and traumas men face. The above situation is as similar to women’s harassment and it should also be taken seriously so that men can feel safe. Although there is zero awareness in society of such things towards men still some organizations took the initiative to protect the men’s community. And, MHETOO is one of them and challenging society to bring the biggest revolution for men’s safety and protection.
Does sexual harassment against men a reality?
Most of the time, Indian society is not aware of the problem and thus there is no solution to be made. Male rape and sexual harassment against men exist but unfortunately, we don’t know how to respond to this and help men to keep themselves in a vault. Indian constitution is filled with women’s welfare and men’s welfare pages are empty and that is why we are here trying to fill up those pages so that we as men can also feel safe.
Sexual harassment against men is taboo and society’s reaction towards the situation is even worse.
Should you take a stand for yourself?
Yes, of course, you must take a stand for yourself and fight back against the trauma and depression you’re feeling because of it. Although you might have lesser support from the legal ground you can raise your voice and create a difference, you must involve other male co-workers and build up a team together and ask for justice, you can ask the organization to suspend the females who are harassing you to make sexual intercourse with them.
