Earlier this week, social media was abuzz when a video of an old man caught in the act of pleasuring himself while biting a female undergarment began circulating online. The 62-year-old had since been arrested by the authorities for indecent behaviour.
That being said, it appears that some people out there are still stuck in the toxic culture of putting the blame on women, and not the perpetrator. This issue was brought to light by a local Twitter user known as Balqis (@nolongerskek).

“Of course, it’s still the woman’s fault for drying their underwear outdoors. It’s the old man’s wife’s fault for not being able to satisfy his lust. Anything but the perpetrator,” the netizen remarked. She also accompanied her tweet with screenshots of a few comments posted by male netizens on TikTok. As seen in the screenshots, some of the men appeared to put the blame on the 62-year-old’s spouse for his wrongdoing.
The comments were flooded with a handful of female commentators who came forth putting the male netizens on blast. “So is it our fault for hanging our clothes under the sun? She even placed her undergarment carefully at the back of the clothes rack. This shows that the woman is still self-conscious. I can’t understand why people keep on blaming the woman,” Twitter user Emma Sherrina commented.
Another user, @aj_pshone chimed in by saying, “Anything we want to do in life is A CHOICE. In this case, it has nothing to do with his wife or the inner clothes that was hanging outside. It was his desire to do so. Thank God he didn’t satisfy his sexual desire on a woman. But whatever it is, its still WRONG!”
This kind of mentality (shaming the victim) is harmful not only to the victim, but also to women in general. How would you react if a similar situation were to happen to your own family members or friends?
