The WAR Against Women In India | Rotten Mango Reaction 

as an indian women, i can't explain how terrified i am to leave the house these days...

The original rotten mango video got banned, now u can imagine how bad it is, and how deep politics is involved in it

the fact that the original video of rotten moango is not available in india due to court order makes me terrified.

I am in 10th class, a few months ago boy in my class touched my chest and when I got angry and yelled at him he and his friends called me crazy and sensitive and overdramatic etc.... I told the teachers and she just scolded him a little, but later told infront of whole class that girls should know how to mentain a proper dignity and respect for themselves and not cling to boys. She didn't pinpoint me but it was obvious that she was calling me a characterless girl... And when I told my parents the whole thing, they said I shouldn't have gone near boys and scolded me instead. But the thing is... I wasn't near him, I was in my seat I was completing my notebook, silently! I wasn't even looking at him or any other boys. He approached me and grabbed me out of nowhere but still I was told that it's my fault too. It wasn't until this recent Kolkata crime happen and I saw posts made by other Indian girls and women who were told the same thing that I realised it wasn't really my fault. I felt so disgusted. I feel disgusted in myself and in our Indian society.. i just desperately want to grow up fast and leave India as fast as possible. In our country if anyone criticizes our Indian society then we are told "oh so you want to live in some muslim country? Ok then go to Pakistan" atp I'd rather go to any muslim country.. at least the molesters get punished there..... Here people would blame EVERYONE except the bad men. All this society cares about religion and hating on other man made religious beliefs, cast system, hating gay and transgenders, calling girls bad names and victim blaming, and worshipping political leaders, making EVERYTHING about politics or Hindu vs muslim, Indian men being racist towards their own country's girls, colorism, literally BEATING PEOPLE HALF TO D3ATH FOR eating beef and shamelessly breaking houses of minorities. I am so so sick of it all!! But I'm not saying it's all bad, good things also happen here and I know there are good people too, good Indian men exists too but they are so few and that also makes me so uneasy,,, why are they so less? i feel so so scared sometimes for my future as a girl living in a country like this.. I don't want to live here. I really want to grow older fast. (Edit) Thank you for all the replies, some of it made me cry a little.. I hope someday people change for the better and make this world a safer place for women too.

As an Indian, I often hear people defend India by saying, 'These things happen in other countries too!' While that may be true, it shouldn't stop us from addressing issues within our own country. Talking about these problems doesn't mean we don't love India-it's quite the opposite. We can start making a difference by taking steps in our own communities. Also, I'm concerned about the growing influence of this bullshit 'sigma men/alpha men' cultures, promoted by figures like AndrewMfTate. This is negatively impacting our youth. And this really infuriates me!

if parents would teach their sons some morals this wouldn't be happening in south asia sex education is non existent men are free to do whatever they want

This video is now banned in India due to a court order...It still shows that they're trying to cover it up. EXTREMELY SHAMEFUL! We're with you Stephanie..

Apparently they blocked the video here in india “due to court order “. So i came here to watch the full video

The fact that the original video by rotten mango is not available in India due to “a court order” says everything you need to know about the Indian judicial system. I cannot, in no conscious state of mind, say that I’m an Indian who’s proud of her country. Well done india. Well done.

Femicide is a real issues that no ine really talks about, somehow people barely think it a hate crime

This case is horrible. It terrifies me. But it's also the fact that so many men online from all over the world are making jokes about it, it's the fact some are blaming her, it's the fact that some don't care. And that terrifies me the most because we're living in the same world with people like this

As an indian girl who is working at a hospital, I cannot tell you how many times I have encountered creeps here even when I was working as a minor, so many men who try to get ny number talk about how I look and once I even got a creepy call by a man 10 years older then me asking me to be his wife and telling me he saw how sexy I looked in orange coulour that day (I was an average minor wearing traditional indian kurta suit mind you and he still thought it was sexy.)..I didn't even see him that day so that meant he was STALKING me, I immediately blocked him and could never walk alone at night after that incident I was disgusted and terrified as a 17 year old, not because men have the audacity to go after girls my age its way too common but the fact that after I reported it my hospital did nothing to protect me, even when I complained they never went out of their way to tell these men to back off, I mean honestly even after this poor lady doctor was m""dered and r worded by sevral people the principal had the audacity to blame her and it was the students that had to take actions but from the government and law she still hasn't gotten any justice speaks volumes, it shows me until the day I am in her place they will still be silent. It's her right now it can be any of us tomorrow, None of us is truly safe with this corrupt system and mindet in india and people in power giving 0 sh*ts about women. I'm so damn done with our government and country honestly. I'm so done being a women even truly the worst sin to have in this country for me and many women was being born.

This video of Rotten Mango has been taken down in our country, India. Thanks for reacting to this.

As an Indian girl living in an isolated pg, I started to feel suspicious over every men I see on the road passing by. And by the night, thoughts like someone might come through the window scares me to freak.

I was born in Kolkata and even though I live in the US now, it will always be my home. I've followed Rotten Mango for a long time, and never imagined that Stephanie would one day have to talk about the hospital where I have been multiple times and where many of my friends work. And now that you (one of my favourite and most cheerful reactors) are also reacting to this, it feels so so sad.

And men still wonder why we choose the bear... If you wanne help, please speak up when your guy friend's make offhanded comments about woman, treat every woman like youd want your daughter to be treated. They deserve respect as a human beeing. I know boys are socialized to seek aproval from male friends over female humans ("bros over...") so dont be part of the problem. Rip to that poor young woman. And may all her attackers never have peace again.

The men of my country are the reason why I am ashamed to say "yea, I'm from India"

Some men online in India right now are choosing this time insensitively to preach about how "it's not all men" or how "we are tarnishing our country's image" by saying stuff about Indian men. How funny is it that the principal is a man? How funny is it that most perpetrators in this whole thing are men? The riots and there is one rumoured girl who is the girlfriend of one of the perpetrators, and I'm not saying she is innocent if she took part in it, but surely she knew she would face the same end had she fought back. This is just reality, and men who STILL want to justify "it's not all men" should go and ask female friends or women around in their lives. Most of them have faced some harassment from men. When I was 16 a man while riding on his bike touched me inappropriately at about 6 pm i was wearing a big oversized T-shirt and long loose pants while I was walking back home on the road while it was raining. I've had a man who regularly came to my house to iron clothes for my family ask me to have sex with him, and despite rejecting, he continued to ask and even once pushed my house door to ask if anyone was at home. Those who argue "MEN GET RAPED TOO" need to realise that it's mostly MEN RAPING OTHER MEN. Most available research indicates that when men are sexually assaulted, the perpetrator is overwhelmingly male. Studies from other countries with similar cultural contexts suggest that around 90-95% of male rape victims are assaulted by other men, and this trend would likely be similar in India. Sexual assault by women against men, while less reported and less discussed, does exist but is typically a smaller percentage. But even then, this is ALL IRRELEVANT. We want JUSTICE FOR WOMEN. The so-called ones who are most protected are STILL going through such injustice.

I'm a resident doctor in India. After this incident, authorities decided to shut&lock the main academic gates beyond 6am-7pm in the name of safety and security. India is regressive society for women. I hv no expectation in this country. And there are Indians who get offended when this nation is critisized...blind people

“He’ll must be empty because all the monsters are here” Wow. That person’s comment is something…. My heart really goes out to all the women; women doctors, nurses, etc in India. Sending prayers your way.

Some men's are saying “we want justice” but behind their face their all same .... Yesterday we're went to protest but some men's are checking out girls and laughing and it's so disgusting and I'm also from Kolkata

Honestly these days as a women I don’t know if I ever want to marry I’m starting to get scared of men I know it’s not all men because real men don’t do this shit but it’s just hella scary to think someone could actually do this to someone else for fun like I can’t

I actually wanted to comment bout this case in Rotten Mango's vids but I thought no one will notice it. This case needs global attention rn it's so gruesome and sad and I'm not even sure if we'll ever get the justice at all

Apparently this video of rotten mango got taken down here in india says a lot about the situation here what a disgusting country i live in

I can't believe I am this early, also as a girl this is so sad and terrifying to even hear about it :(( i hope the laws change instead of blaming girls / women..

As an indian, I can tell that this changed our life completely. I was a really fearless kinda person and loved roaming around at night but after this I'm kinda scared to walk/travel/work somewhere even at day time, I always keep a small pocket knife in my hand even if I'm sitting somewhere "safe".

i passed neet this year and applied to the organization in my country that would allow 2 shortlisted candidates to go to indian medical school. one of them was this specific school. i got shortlisted but didnt pass the final test (an interview), and now i am so glad. the system is general has a problem to but to think that i could go to that specific school to pursue my dream... just like they had... and to be failed so brutally? i dont even want to think about it now

I have friends from India and they all basically said that existing as a woman is asking for trouble over there and *allegedly* women can't even go out celebrating holi festival without being bothered by men.

im so sorry for all the women and children in india, i hope u all to be safe, god this is horrendous

Bro me as a guy I'm 99℅ time on guard while I am alone on street and this type news sends shivers down mine spine as a guy I can't even imagine what a women might feel I just feel sorry for them

In our country Movies like Animal and Kabir Singh gain more attention than that of Gangubai or Chapaak . That just tells you what you need to know about what the people of India like . They don't like strong independent women who have defied the stereotypes of our culture and continue to fight against it . They like men who don't respect women and do violence.

I am a teen female india in class 10 and ive been wondering if i can even trust my male friends So many stories about rape are coming out like a 3.5 year old was raped in a van like idk how men can be so cruel My parents have ordered pepper spray for me as i have to go alone to study and I had never imagined that this would happen in 2024 but iam now reminded that this happens every second Statistics show one women is raped every 16mins in india This case in a few months will be nirbhaya 2 and a few years from now there will be a nirbhaya 3 and the loop will continue 😢 Not all men but always a man We want justice

At this point , every woman , everywhere, is starting to develop such distrust and disgust towards men... And yes " not all men " but then , why are we *ALL* on high alert all the time ? That's simply no way to live... My heart breaks for them 💔

I'm from Pakistan and hearing her mother broke my heart in pieces. Like knowing this is how your child spent her last moments. Praying for all my sisters around the world

case to note: after this came out, many isolated heinous sexual violence cases have been coming out some of them very recent because men truly believe they can get away

hi, I'm from kolkata... where this case took place.... what are u seeing in media... it's more worse shit going on here

Why can’t ppl just teach their sons to be normal. Like how do you as a parent let it get this bad

I am from Kolkata myself....all I want to say is that I get that the entire male population of our country comes under fire for this,that even includes my father,my other male relatives or male friends...so I am not generalising...but the phrase 'not all men' doesn't give me any assurance anymore and YES, INDIA HAS A RAPE CULTURE... there will be a lot of Indians who will do whataboutery and shit online... but THIS IS THE HARD TRUTH.

This story has haunted me since I read all the details it’s horrific. The details are so much worse than I imagined from headlines. A global issue sadly.

the fact that rotten mango video is banned now is literally so so concerning and terriying

Hopefully they don't block this video too like the government blocked the original one in India.

Here in Mexico we are also suffering from the same thing... In some cities people live in fear that they will not be able to return home after going to work or going to school... Fear of them, criminal organizations or of some men who are not even worth calling themselves human beings.

Fun?fact : The original video is banned in India India is becoming more and more like china but not in a good way

This video has been removed and can’t be viewed in India anymore on steph’s channel rotten mango. This needs to spread more and more so the government cannot do this. They are trying to cover up the truth. Guys don’t let what’s in the video go to waste and destroyed and deleted.

I was literally just craving a Sebastine + Stephanie combo!!! I already watched the original when it dropped, but am down to watch it again with Seb. Wish it could have been a happier subject, but its also important we're all aware of the details of what is really going on with this case.... R.I.P. Doctor. 🙏🏻🕊️

I'm an indian woman but i moved overseas but this case doesn't even surprise me like even when i visit my own hometown I don't feel safe around my own relatives and the people that I see often like neighbours or people that work nearby. there are so many women being r-worded every day it's so normalised and this was just one part of it, one story out of millions.

The change has to come. We will bring it at any cost. Women will be safe in India. Fellow Indians, we deserve this. We deserve to be critized on an international stage. If you're so offended, make our country better. Also sir, please don't use the photo of the victim, it was leaked without any consent whatsoever.

Thank you for reacting to this. It's high time Indian women, and infact women all over the world, stop suppressing themselves because it "hurts the country's image". A fourteen year old boy, a four year old girl, a muslim nurse, a dalit minor, an upper caste Hindu doctor, all of them were raped and brutalized within weeks of each other in different parts of Northern and Central India. A Spaniard was gang-raped infront of her husband while biking across the country. All these victims were either mocked or denied the right to justice by incels on Indian social media. This is not a "political issue" or "an Indian issue". It is a global issue and must be condemned by EVERYONE! Indian women, children, and even men and animals are in a crisis because of this rise in brutality. Goons have been given political freehand in the name of religion and we can see that they do not discriminate when it comes to their perversions.

Yo, the original rotten mango video is banned in India by a court order! This isn't the first time too. A documentary on the famous Nirbhaya delhi gang rape case called "India's Daughter" was banned by Indian court too because apparently, it's bad for India's international image...

Thank you for reacting to her video about this!!

I still don't think it's possible that he acted alone if the women had that much male-life juice on her at least not the SA..because one guy can only produce so much per round. (I'm pretty sure I've heared abou this or a different case like this , in India, from an online friend) and they told me back then that by the calculations for the one she was talking about it must had been like 15+ guys... But I agree his Portofolio screams "Who else than me?" And the picture they've chosen doesn't make him appear any less creepy... India does have the Death Penalty but they allegedly didn't use it since 2020 (anymore).

i hate this world so much

As an Indian woman and in health care…I am so upset…..this is nothing new….us health care workers protest every 2 years for violence against doctors.

I am glad this went international we need to do something it’s not normal

More things are coming out regarding this case which are soo much more disgusting. The people are being silenced, threatened to not speak about this. The state government of West Bengal are so deep into this. They are in it.

This incident shook me to my very core. Thank you for being one of the first foreigners I’ve seen to actually spread awareness about this topic and it’s insane that something like this happened in my country

India has had a serious r word problem for yearssssss it’s ridiculous that it’s likely to happen that these woman get little to no justice

at this point, i would rather choose dinosaur rather than a man or a bear

no wonder people don't like their own country here....

For some reason, the rape cases are increasing.. We all are scared to get out of our homes.. Nowhere is safe.. Nothing hospital? Moumita's, van? Not safe.. School? Not at all!! We are terrified, because the thought that one day we'll be the ones in the news instead of the victims

Not even lizards are safe 😢 iykyk

All of this and the rise of Andrew Tate alikes sigma male is obnoxious and irritating.

The fact that these things like harassment and all has increased so much in this past week Me myself experienced one and so did 2 friends of mine did This is so wrong and it NEEDS TO STOP

Not only is that place their job it's essentially their 2nd home with that many hours

broo you so kind, terimakasih sudah melihat hal ini ❤

Thank you so much for talking about this issue. This is not the first time something like this has happened here. As an Indian girl, I literally get goosebumps every time I see these types of things happening in my country. Going to college, coming back, or even just leaving the house for any reason is becoming scary because you never know who is a good person and who isn't. We just want better security for women in general.

Makes wonder how this could happen without others not noticing. Plus I doubt this criminals are first time offenders

As an indian woman, i feel so so scared to get out of my house nowadays. Whenever a man looks at me i feel scared. I shouldn't feel scared, it's not all men but i do feel scared.

THANK YOU THANK YOU for reacting to this and giving it more exposure! As an Indian who lives abroad (but with blood ties to West Bengal) it's been horrible to see how the government in WB has handled this. My brother-in-law is a politician there and my cousin is an actress and they've been out protesting so much. He is the ONLY notable politician there who has ignored Mumta Banergjee's wishes to sweep this under the rug and has protested and I am very proud of both of them. Another point is that I'm glad that people are taking action on this. If this happened in other places I doubt these kinds of protests would happen to this level. Proud of my country's citizens for constantly pushing for what's right. I truly hope this brings some kind of change. It's been horrible to see how people still treat women like anything that happens is their fault. I stand with the bengali women and indian women who are fighting for justice right now!

We want justice

i just watched her video yesterday. and I am glad stephanie and you took time to make bring this international light. the government of west bengal is clearly trying to shove it under the rug. and we can't let this happen. i am glad she talked about the possibility of it being a coverup. because the issue is deeper than mere sexual violence at this point. We the citizens of India, especially women have lost hope in the government, the police and the judiciary. how do we know we are safe when the very institutions who need to protect us are very clearly involved in this crime?

I love your Channel sm Sebastian. Because you not only focus on your K-pop content but you keep up to date with the current situations and educate yourself more. I have so much respect for you. I am not Indian but as a Woman this needs to be stopped. My sisters and I cried so much when we heard about the late Doctor's situation. May she rest in eternal peace🤍

bear.

And keep in mind this is just one case! There are so many others like this that have happened throughout these years. Only few of them get the limelight. While this case was getting headlines I read about 2-3 more rape cases where the women was murdered after getting raped. It is a norm in our country. As a girl I hope every girl stays safe even though we never are. 💔

I can't fathom how horrible it must've been for her. She would have had a great life a head of her but it ended too horribly, going through terrible pain in her last moments.🥀 I hope she rests in peace and there will be justice for her. I pray for all the innocents in India🙏🏽

The video was taken down cuz parents of the victim didn't want that her daughter's sensitive case is used by youtubers to earn money. The topic is currently very sensitive issue and it should not be used for selfish reasons. Also please remove the face of the victim from the thumbnail. As per Indian laws it is detrimental to the right to privacy of the victim.

I used to be scared of going to the US because of the true crime stories I've heard over the years, but never realized I was living in hell myself. The whole world seems scary right now. You never know when someone will snap and brutalize you. Rape and violence have become normal.

The World is so cruel to women's 💔

Yes the rotten mango video was taken down. What a shame

one of the cases where the president of the country herself had to speak. this case was soo horiffic that now i have to believe demons donnot live in hell anymore theylive here on earth among earth

Stephanie’s video got taken down in India due to a court order :((

I found your channel through NCT videos. The situation currently in our country especially in my city where this happened is terrible right now. It's a hot topic even for international news channels. I am glad through you many other people get to know about it and if they tweet this it will be pressure on authorities to take fast actions.

I have a question and this is not to be offensive at all but why do some cultures treat women so horribly? Women have to wear this and that and they can't do this and that due to religion. Why is the religion so misogynistic? Is that even a thing?

Now I understand why some women have this hatred and fear of men , a girl can’t even walk in the street , nor can she sleep in peace without being harassed or assaulted

This video is 100% accurate. It is bnned here in India. Few illegal assholes commit crimes on the directions of the political parties. All sorts of scams and illegal activities go on in this country and we normal folk suffer. They blame us, normal people, whereas the culprits are the powerful. Its a shame to live in this country. Seriously. And I am a boy from Bengal.

Video unavailable This content is not available on this country domain due to a court order. when i click the original link..... ok this is ridiculous.......

Please i want this to reach to an international level i don't give a single shit about our 'image' like it was never good to begin with??? (for woman safety everyone knows india is not good) I want everyone to feel ashamed of our society and actually do something out of shame It is so sad it had to come to this

As an Indian woman, I urge any foreign woman watching this or reading this comment, to pls refrain from visiting India. We Indians don't feel safe here, we girls are having anxiety just by standing alone anywhere. Currently for the past one week everyone is just so scared that no dad is ready to let his daughter go alone anywhere. I, myself am getting accompanied by dad, brother or 1 friend everywhere. This is not an exaggeration, but has become an unwritten mutually understood mindset here in India. I am one of the girls who are constantly speaking up so that they don't put this under the rug.

India is one place I would never travel to solo or even with another female friend. I would go with a man. And that's sad that we have to think this way

These protests happened in front of my grand parents houses.. my family members participated. It's horrible. We were awake for hours at night, watching the news and the management of the situation. In India, and throughout Asia, everybody wants their children to be a doctor. I'm a student still, after this case, it put me in some doubts about everything. Some of the other things going on are to cover up the actual situation. To distract the public and eventually put the blame on them. Just look at India, them taking the video down and banning it, shows a lot..

Women want justice.

This is so horrible and for years people especially women have been trying to bring attention and get justice. The crime in India keeps rising (it’s not just Indian that’s harming women ofc) There’s a movie where the female lead tells the other women to tie their friends legs close because “men can’t even be trusted with a ded body.” Could you also watch dark asia with Meagan? She recently made a video with another RU-vidr who is trying to get her child back! It’s very important

I see too many situations specifically in Asia on RM’s channel. I don’t understand why they’re still stuck in this idea that women are simply just not human beings. They treat my fellow sisters like ragdolls and for what? I won’t ever understand the pain and suffering these women have to take on just to exist as someone who is American. It’s so upsetting that I as one human being do not have the power nor the money to even think about tearing down that system either. That’s the problem. They’ve implemented a mindset of “the government will help you! will they actually though?”

I'm from India and thank you so much for enlightening on this topic😢

Thank you so much for reacting to this case because this is the time that every one should know and stand up for it because "it's not just a doctor problem its every women problem". Hope everyone stay safe and healthy 🍀🙏

Thank you Sebastine for covering this! The people in India need justice!

what u said is correct. theres actually been many continuous rape cases these following days in india after this heartbreaking incident. its as if the bad guys are actually empowered by this case and hence they are getting "motivated" to create more chaos and hurt women which is fucked up. this case is so bad that and far from justice that the ppl with this mindset are enjoyed over it and promoting it even more. it has gotten so much worse that even in our states and hometown there are countless rape cases going on. this is honestly so concerning and so horrifying that our moms are scared to go to their work places and has started affecting our daily lives. ps: the original video by stephanie is banned in our country due to a court order which is why im watching it here.

Also this video of Stephanie is blocked in India!!

Rotten mango's video got taken down from her channel.

I'm an Indian living in the capital and this case genuinely reminds me one other case happened in the capital years back and tbh my work makes me go late like after midnight sometimes and I'm not taking any projects since this happend
