We all believe that men can play an active role in eradicating gender violence and their active participation is sure going to help in breaking patriarchal cliches. But is it solely their individual responsibility to create a realm of gender equity and pay respect to the opposite sex ? It's immensely comforting to lay down rules & brainstorm over the many ways in which 'Men Can' take initiative to make a noticeable difference. But I believe, the power also vests in the hands of those vulnerable species who since time immemorial have been given the status of 'weaker section of society'.

It is an obvious fact that only the perpetrator can help in controlling his/her actions against the victim in the first place and then can other measures follow from the victim to retort and tackle the issue. And I believe that the reforms in the attitude of men (perpetrator here) can come only if they are brought up with right values by their families and schools in their formative years.
