Great. So you too like songs that are based on a raag.

"leke pehla pehla pyaar...", although not a duet
(Shamshad Begum too), set fire to radios back in the day,
thanks to AIR and Radio Ceylon.

Meet Brother Dean Saxton, Who Believes Women Are To Blame
For Their Own Rape
 
By Tyler Kingkade
The Huffington Post
May 5, 2014
 
[Video]
 
Brother Dean Saxton spends a lot of time on the
University of Arizona campus slut shaming.
 
Saxton is a student at UA and the resident campus
preacher. He's very disliked on campus. Standing around
with signs telling people they deserve to be raped
doesn't help.
 
Vice went to Arizona and spent time with Saxton for a
mini-documentary, published online Monday.
 
In one scene Vice captured, Saxton showed up at a
screening of the documentary "Brave Miss World," which
chronicles the experience of rape survivors, holding a
sign declaring "Forgive Rapists."

Yale Student: 'I Was Raped' - Rape is startlingly common
on U.S. college campuses and rapists do get away with
their crimes...
 
YALE STUDENT: 'I WAS RAPED'
 
By Nathan Harden - Fix Editor

The topic of rape on college campuses is all over the
media recently. There are two opposing views out there at
the moment, generally speaking. The first view is that
rape isn't as big of a problem as it is sometimes made
out to be, instead statistics are inflated and confused
by the ambiguities of "drunk sex" and the sex-with-near-
strangers norm of the college hookup culture, and, in
some cases, hyped, up by politically-motivated feminists
who show little concern for the due process rights of
young men who may be falsely accused. The second view is
that there is an epidemic of rape on campus and that
victims are often denied justice, criminals walk away
free, while an indifferent society ends up blaming the
victims.
 
Both of these views, opposite though they may be, have an
element of truth in them. As someone who has written
quite a bit about sexual assault on campus and about the
college sexual culture in general, I often find myself
caught in the middle between these two sides, which too
often seem to take an all-or-nothing approach to the
argument. Feminists, for example, are almost never
willing to admit something as simple as the fact that
when two people get drunk, consent can become a much more
murky question by the time the two wake up the next
morning. Conservatives, on the other hand, sometimes
sound as if they believe rape almost never happens on
campus.
 
The truth of the matter, I believe, lies between these
two extremes. Rape is startlingly common on college
campuses and rapists do get away with their crimes far
too often. But on-campus rape is made more prevalent by
the rampant abuse of inhibition-lowering alcohol, and by
the fact that the modern hookup culture has radically
transformed sexual expectations among casual
acquaintances -- two factors that do a lot to muddy the
lines of sexual consent. Anyone who points this out is at
risk of being castigated for "blaming the victim."
