I have come to the conclusion that Nepalis in general struggle to empathize with fellow Nepalis who are, for example, suffering for whatever reason. The reason behind that is their low power of imagination.
Why are their power of imagination low? Caste system induced attitude, lack of travel experience, poor quality of both formal and informal education, and lack of reading culture.
The combination of a highly patriarchal society and an abysmally poor quality of education in Nepal means that boys and men view girls and women as inferior and treat them as such. One such example is viewing them as the culpable party for when they become victims of violence, as happened on social media over an incident involving the rape of an Australian woman by a Nepali man.
In the highly patriarchal society that is Nepal, it's not surprising that women have such laxed attitudes towards domestic violence. Addressing that requires a multi-prong approach, one of which must be providing quality education to the population.
I have come across Nepali men, in person, on social media and elsewhere, who, when discussing gender issues, display a very very remarkable lack of knowledge and understanding of the issues faced by our girls and women. In the process, they display their conceit, their complete ignorance of the patriarchal society we live in and how that benefits and privileges us, men.
This is just one example of that.
