Hi, everyone.
Could you tell me what correspondingly means in this para?
Modestly dressed, away from home because of family-driven necessity, a virgin or an aging mother, spotless past, raped by men she didn’t know, fought and resisted, badly bruised and physiologically damaged, tearful, hysterical and begging for justice or contemplating suicide because death is preferable to dishonour. On these terms, we are willing to extend her sympathy and support. This is why rape cases with child victims generally get more media attention and institutional support. No one questions whether they are lying or their consent was involved, or if they encouraged or tempted the aggressor, the usual forms of judgment where women are concerned.
Correspondingly, there is a perfect perpetrator. Loner, stranger, unmarried, illiterate, sexually deprived, deviant young man with a criminal track record for robberies and such. Older or educated and urbane or married men with children or pious men or family elders of victims are exempt.
