My views on the Salman Khan 'Raped Women comment'

Salman Khan's recent observation of his work schedule making him feel like a 'raped woman' was no doubt made without much(sensible) thought on the actor's part, as is being vouched for by many of his supporters. His careless tongue had also made another strikingly misogynist remark in the very same interview. While this has been less reported about, it clearly shows that Khan's thoughts aren't carefully thought out and irresponsible at the best but crude, insensitive, sexist and patriarchal at the worst.
In the very same interview Khan had regarded women synonymous to vice. As reported by Vagabomb, he ranted, "Leave every second vice in your list-that is the mantra I follow. And I have left everything one by one. When it was between coffee and cigarettes, I quit coffee. Between cigarettes and drinks I quit the stick.  Between the drinks and women, I have chosen women.”

If women itself symbolizes vice then he could have very well meant that he felt like a 'woman' when he said that those wrestling rehearsals for Sultan made him feel like a 'raped woman'.. A woman, a raped woman, has been slighted by reducing her to an enfeebled being. Her trauma has been slighted. She has been slighted.
My thought on this interview in brief would be, retweeting singer Sona Mohapatra (#SonaLIVE @sonamohapatra), "Women thrashed, people run over, wildlife massacred yet‪ #‎Hero of the nation..Unfair. India full of such supporters."

The Dark Rooms leading to the Dark Mind...

      

Lights Out

David F.Sandberg

When the lights are out, David F. Sandberg drags us into the darkest crevices of an apartment where an insomniac boy Martin stays with his mother Sophie…why can’t the boy get a good night’s sleep?  Because they’re not alone...  A monstrous apparition follows them to these dark corners, a blackened silhouette of a woman named Diane, an unearthly creature who had befriended Sophie since their days together in a mental asylum.What appears to be the darkest nooks and corners of their apartment, where her imaginary friend Diane thrives, owing to her skin being diseased and sensitive to light, is in reality the darkest niche of Sophie’s depression driven state, having lost her second husband and being detached from her elder daughter henceforth. As Sophie’s daughter Rebecca intervenes, she finds herself to be reliving the childhood bedtime nightmares with her brother. Burying deep down into Diane’s past, can Rebecca understand how to ward off her sinister presence in her family forever?
