one wonders what Confucius meant

The Star reports that the Sabah Wanita Umno has urged the party to take action against Kota Kinabalu Umno pro tem chief Roselan Johar Mohamed for his recent remarks on rape.

Reselan had stunned the audience during his closing ceremony speech of the “Legal Literacy Seminar” for Women, at Wisma SESB on the 22nd of this month, when he suggested that,

if you cannot fight rape, better lay down and enjoy it.

He also went on to say that to his knowledge, there had been no psychological evaluation on rape victims as to whether they enjoyed it, and that they actually enjoyed the experience but felt embarrassed to tell others. He then proposed that when a victim wants to lodge a police report on rape, the doctor must carry out psychological examination on the victim as to what extent she enjoyed it

Roselan has since apologised, explaining that his intentions had been misconstrued. The particular phrase was a proverb he took from Confucius.
