Abstract: Rape is an offence against the soul because it kills the victim from inside and out. Rape does not only harm a person physically but more than that mentally. Although rape is gender neutral crime and there are many laws which government has made for protection of male and female. Research on crime against women and men is being done extensively across the world. The author delves into analysing the current protective legislations in India in the light of gender-neutral laws and conclude by suggesting the necessary changes that can be implemented so as to protect all the genders equally under the law and not protecting only a single class at cost of the other.
