Dealing With Predators. Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Dealing With Predators.



Predator in sex can be two kinds.
Persistent pestering, disgusting
Lewd behaviour is the one kind.
It is like begging, no force applied.
Power driven, structural coercion
And physical assault is the second.
It is like snatching, of violence.
Both need different kind of treatment.

No stigma is attached to victims
Of sexual assault or harassment.
But the accused is put to shame.
Stigma is attached to rape victims
And hence many rapes go unreported.
Sexual abuses lack evidence.
Due allowance must be in the trial.
