Protect Mannequins from Sexual Assault

Apparently, mannequins are in danger in India.  Stores in Mumbai will have to clothe them decently (no Victoria’s Secret) or remove them.  The reasoning behind this regulation is supposedly that nude or provocatively dressed mannequins can provoke men to attack women sexually. Now, as everyone knows, rape is an exertion of power over another person, even a hate-crime; it is not a result of normal sexual urges or too much Viagra.  Therefore, I can only conclude that those men making the rules in Mumbai really want to protect their city’s mannequins.  I guess that’s their prerogative.
