The essay talks about the importance of parenting and what boys in India should be taught by their parents at a young age so that they do not perceive women in a negative manner.

Rega also mentions that boys should be taught about ‘consent’, ‘respect’, ‘gender equality’, ‘that they aren’t entitled to any woman’s body, attention, or time’. Also, the piece talks about the fact that while women are taught what not to do at a young age, boys should also be taught what not to do from a young age.

Soon after the news became known, Bollywood celebs to the likes of Sonam Kapoor Ahuja, Siddhant Chaturvedi, and others took to social media to express their disdain, anger and anguish over the Bois Locker Room. Richa Chaddha wrote, “This a multi-faceted problem. Because everyone is still squeamish about sex education in our populous/moralistic country, teenagers are confusing porn for sex education! And now data is free. How dangerous! This will explode in our faces in the next five years sadly, I reckon.”

Reportedly, the administrator of the group, in which the boys talked about raping girls, has been arrested by the cybercrime cell of the Delhi Police. This is the second arrest in the case.
