The hashtag #whyididntreport is trending on micro-blogging website, Twitter and ladies are telling their sad rape experiences and it is quite disheartening.

Khafi revealed that she did not report her rapist because he apologized immediately and she made herself believe that him being drunk was an excuse.

#WhyIDidntReport – because he apologised right after. Because I made myself believe him being drunk was an excuse. Because the one person I did tell said I caused it. Because I felt dirty and ashamed. #WeAreTired

Being in a relationship I didn’t expect it to happen, I was pressured into their pleasure rather than respect my own values.
A year of downplaying the problem with dark humour I didn’t realise the hypersexualised effect it had on me and how i lost myself #whyididntreport

#whyididntreport i didn’t even know it was sexual assault when it occurred (twice). i had to repeat myself to friends who could see the situations for what they were. women are socialized to give into the needs/wants of men before considering their own feelings.

#WhyIDidntReport I CONVINCED myself that it didn’t happen, because if it did then I’d be bringing shame & embarrassment to my family.
Woman don’t have a voice to speak up about such abuse in the Indian community without it being seen as TARNISHING the REPUTATION of the family.
