and a really ugly contortion of modern english to boot.

a contraction of "rape bid", like in a portmantaeu, would be "rid" or "raid".

a contractor of war who might add value and space to a house he bought claiming he's a contractor of construction. or he might create something ugly if granted a license through an implied and thus dubious show of competence. if the same fellow sets up a barbecue grill next to vinyl siding, he cannot be seen as competent to excercise proper judgement in heading a construction effort.

None of these fit the phrase "rape bid," so you can go shut the gently caress up.

Now look under the 'noun' section where it says it means 'attempt'. This is standard English you should know by 6th grade. You should feel ashamed for how dumb you are.

ffs, go search in quotes "parole bid" "murder bid" "robbery bid" "obama's bid" but none of those things are auctions, they don't know english!!

There's nothing good or bad about it. It's plain English, either you are literate and understand it or you are a retard. The BBC agrees: https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Awww.bbc.co.uk+%22rape+bid%22

Earlier this year I was sitting down in a Finance class and some Indian dude sat down next to me. The smell was so bad that I hailed, as a friend, a person across the room I didn't even know so I could move without seeming rude.

Also I stopped working out at our University gym because any time an Indian dude used a piece of equipment you had to spray that poo poo down with 5 layers of lightly scented antibacterial spray to use it without getting done and smelling like you rolled around in the Ganges.

Why do Westerners think India is some majestic, peaceful, and spiritual wonderland

Because of yoga and Hinduism?

Hollywood and classic literature have really created this mystique about India, but I think the real reason they still get tourists going there is that you can't smell a picture.

So do people just want that "hey I was in a shanty town!" cultural experience so they can gawk at the poors or do they think it'll be some magical adventure

Taj Mahal is meh imo

Some are totally misinformed and get a hell of a shock (olfactory as well) when they show and and realize it is nothing like the brochures. Some are on really strictly organized tour groups that are reminiscent of North Korean tours, only letting you see the "good things" and keeping all the lovely stuff out of view. And some are India apologists or "hipster-tourists" who could get robbed, raped, and come home with an unidentified STD and still tell all their friends how magical India is. Then there are those tourists who can suppress all the bad stuff and only see what they want to and are genuinely mystified at all the bad press India is getting.

I think the current goon murder/suicide ratio is firmly in the "population control" camp.
