How to rape your own daughter
A couple of cases in
England still vividly plays on my mind. The husband who was denied intimacy by
his wife, started to rape his own daughter from the time she was 6 years old.
Every Saturday when mum went shopping, he would rape his daughter. Subsequently
he would threaten to kill her if she told mum, and then he bought her some
sweets. The first time he raped his daughter she was bleeding so much, that her
sister had to help cleaning her in the bath tube.
One day after coming home from work, the father was annoyed with her behaviour. He then took her small fingers and asked her to put them by the door post. He then slammed the door and continued to have his dinner.
The other case was a father who kept raping a couple of his daughters. My client told me how her father removed a brick in the wall between his and the girls bedroom. Terrified by fear they would every night watch how his eyes were guarding and preying at their helpless bodies through the empty space in the bedrooms wall.
In Sweden young girls, particularly from Kurdistan ( consists of a land area shared by Turkey, Iran, Iraq and Syria), are killed by their brothers and fathers as an act of honour. Coincidentally some of these young women, often between the age of 15 - 20, are being found dead or severely wounded, beneath the family's balcony located on the 5th or 6t floor. Swede's avoid talking about it since journalists and authorities easily accuse native people of being racists or xenophobic. This tolerance with intolerance among fellow human beings, has created a vacuum where some foreign women not only fear for their lives, but they also feel constantly let down by a country claiming to protect them as individuals.
The Quest for me as a psychiatrist is not why males continue to commit all these atrocities. The Quest is what females lack or rather what they have been given as protection, not to behave like fathers and sons? Is it genetic? Is it about levels of testosterone? If we castrated all these offenders, would the world be different? What would happen if females did the same to males? Would there be fewer conflicts in the world if we had only female leaders? Is it honourable to kill your own daughter or throw acid in her face? Why is that several men have been caught having abducted young girls or even their own daughters, kept them alive for 10 - 15 years, made them pregnant, and still pretend that nothing has happened.
It requires a lot of forgiveness to overcome all this! Sometimes the only path to healing has been to provide advanced hypnotherapy for these traumatized victims. What a wonderful reward to see someone heal, not forget, and finally offer forgiveness not only to themselves but also to the perpetrator.
