We all went 'gaga' over a 'simple' rape joke when millions of young adult sits and enjoy musical videos only to be 'entertained' by 'naked' women. We see these day-in day-out on both public, private and pay television stations.
To make matter sour, music lyrics recently took a different dimension with 'Caro' and 'Ukwu' being the centre of some of these songs.
For clarity, 'Caro' is an abbreviation for Caroline, a feminine name and 'Ukwu', I understand, is Igbo word for 'buttock' but when visuals for 'ukwu' are shown, they are always mammoth female buttocks. For 'Caro', ladies are displayed in various degrees of nakedness.
And we want rape to be a thing of the past?
Well, we are just re-creating rapist, young and eager rapists.
Consider the number of followers these lads command on twitter, the number of 'likes' on facebook then look at how many of these likers, followers are between 13 and 30yrs. If the present rapists are caught and jailed, there is already a system of re- creating them. The only change will be their modus operandi; they will evolve with the situation within the society, new method will be introduce
and the outcome can only be more, aggressive, ambitious, more cruel and intelligent rapists.
If we are still comfortable with most of these musical videos method of entertainment, we can as well take rape, like Basketmouth did, as a thing that has come to stay and then make joke about it.
