Sex scenes on TV encourage rape

I am concerned at the many rape cases we read about daily in newspapers.

My view is that the pornography shown on our television screens is the cause of this.

On every television channel there is kissing, touching and other sexual acts.

My appeal to broadcasters is this: please cut down on pornography and start screening constructive things like how to better our lives.

Teach people in rural areas how to create wealth for themselves and their families.

Most blacks are ignorant and illiterate.

Rape will remain a problem as long as our media emphasises sex, pornography and love-making most of the time.
