Would rape even exist if sex wasn't a taboo in society?

Rape is an alternative mating behavior.........it has been established that rape occurs in nature but only humans would say rape is about power and control. Rape is MAINLY about sexual urges and our inherent need to propagate our genes into the next generation. RAPE IS ABOUT SEX.


Ignorance at its FINEST.

If you were arguing with someone in court, you wouldn't simply say "That's not the truth" and walk away without making an argument.

The VAST majority of rapes are all about power. If it were simply about sex, then thats all it would be... just sex. When someone rapes and murder anotherperson, its not about sex. When a father rapes his daughter... its not about sex. The majority of rapists are lonely people who do not have sex.

If it were just about sex, then the rapist would be turned off by the reactions of the person theyre harming.

Rape is alllll about power and control.

QFT. Rape is about power and control. It is a VIOLENT act. Men who generally rape have no trouble "getting" women or being able to payfor a prostitute or escort. Some/many have psychological and psychoanalytical problems which gives them a feeling to prove their masculinity and they do so bypreying on unsuspecting women.

This is not the same reasoning for date-rape, that is indeed MAINLY for sex.

Pretty much. I was reading a story about some region of Africa that is war-torn and rape was being used as a way of punishing people if they fought against the dictator or spoke out, etc. Wild stuff...
When a lion takes over a pride it kills the offspring of the former alpha lion and inseminates the females. This same concept is at work during conflicts and wars. It is a violent act but MOST people don't do it for the sake of being violent.


Please to not compare humans to animals.

LOL QUE I think you inadvertently agreed with me.......lonely people who don't have sex are horny as hell so they rape. Thus, rape is aboutsex.




You give humanity way too much credit....you're NAIVE as hell to assume being turned off by harm would prevent rape. During war are soldier turned off byharming people so they stop. Get outta here with all that.

Human-beingsare evil evil beings, the sooner you acknowledge this the better understanding you'll have of the things we do.




Arguments I made earlier you ignored.

psychologically rape can be used as a tool to control people. I did say rape is "MAINLY" about sex. There's a difference betweensubconscious, compulsive impetus to commit rape and consciously raping someone to control them. And are you assuming that most rapes end in murder? WTH?


Why does Alaska have such a high rate of rapes? Is it because everyone in Alaska is fiending for some power and control? Get real.

and my answer to this is YES.

AND BTW, SEX IS A TABOO in this country. A president got impeached cuz he lied about head... but if you lie about missles and WMD and kill thousands and thousands for $$$, you get away free.

go to Amsterdam or even Germany and tell me what you see on normal tv, yes thats right, stuff you see in america on pay-per-view. sex (i.e. prostitution) is not that big a deal to them and guess what, Amersterdam has one of the lowest rape rates in the world... no surprise.

^ and please dont quote tribes in africa... that %%$! dont count... once you use "war lords" in a sentence, all reasoning goes out the window... we are talking about civialized, urban places.


Hard to argue with those facts. Most of the rapes that occur I honestly would have to say are not about power and control. While it can be used for that likein wars, everyday rape is often not that black and white.

1. That was a typo. It was supposed to say that the majority of rapists are not from lonely people who can not get sex.

2. It's naive to think that if someone was raping someone else just for sexual pleasure, and the victim was responding VERY negatively that the rapistwould still continue?

2a.

You CAN NOT seriously be comparing rape to war. There's aBIG difference between being turned off by shooting people and being turned off by rape. Of course the fighter is not going to stop fighting becausethey're turned off by it because they're defending their life. The mind goes into a different state when you're struggling for survival andfending for your life. Bad comparison.

3. No kidding humans are evil evil beings.... one of the reasons in which we're evil is because people RAPE other people for POWER. If it was just aboutsex, we wouldn't be so evil, because after all, its just about sexual intercourse.

I never said that most rapes end in murder. Please, go read what I wrote. I don't just say things to say them, and if I'm going to be challenged onwhat I said I would like my actual words to be questioned and not assumptions.

Are you saying that people who rape for sex are doing so subconsciously? If so, I highly disagree.

Is it because the people in Alaska are desperate for sexual intercourse? I think you'd have a much harder time defending that argument than any other one. It's not like there are so few people in that state that as soon as another human is within sight, a person must rape them for sexual pleasure.

Normally I think you and I often share similar views when it comes to matters of human biology considering we're both in the sciences, but Woowwww...I seriously couldn't disagree with you more. In fact, I find your "perspective" quite troubling...

...

Care to share an alternative view?....rape can be used to control people but everyday rape is about sexual urges AND COMPULSION. Sorry if that's too much for some to swallow. Either way it's horrible and I am no way using examples from the animal kingdom as a way of saying it should be condoned.
Except we're people and we can control that urge. We have higher thinking. So when you say rape is about sex, that's wrong. You can pay a $+$%@+ and have sex willingly and you've satisfied your "urge" without having to rape someone.

exactly
 
no matter how you put...a person has to have something wrong in their head to commit that act.

being deprived of sex is not going to make you a horn dog rapist, unless you have a screw or two loose....being able to have casual sex does not mean youcan't become a rapist.

people actually get off on the idea of raping someone....

2000 census:
Alaska Gender Gap-#1 in rapes (81 per 100k)
2-x-mf.gif

Montana #27 in rapes (32.2)
30-x-mf.gif

Hawaii #37 in rapes (26)
15-x-mf.gif



Hawaii has less reported rapes than Montana but a higher Male to Femal ratio. By your theory, Hawaii should be aheadin.

You're absolutely right, there is a psychopathology that makes someone prone to rape, violence, drug abuse and other acts ofcompulsion. We all have the propensity to become rapists, some people have sick sexual rape fantasies I can't even begin to explain. The point I'mtrying to make is fundamentally rape is about sex. The act of rape in itself is a sexual act, it involves intercourse....a person needs to be aroused in orderto commit rape.

If people have rape fantasies then what are they fantasizing about? Having sex? According to your logic, a rape fantasy would be a fantasy about having sex(because rape is about sex as you proclaim.)... so essentially every person who wishes to have sex has a rape fantasy.


The rape fantasy is also about power. Theres no other way to explain a rape fantasy.

Of course the person needs to be aroused, but they get aroused because of the power that comes with the rape.

QFT.

people act like rape has to be either because of sex or power & control... it is possible for it to be a combination of both factors.

there are a whole lot of generalizations being thrown out in this thread on both sides.

Not all rape is about power & control

Not all rape is about sexual urges/desires

The majority of rapes are a combination of wanting power/control & sexual urges/desires

Why do people stay asking me how old I am in these arguments i have on NT
laugh.gif
? Early 20s. I have no idea what you just asked in that question.


People get aroused for weird reasons....eg.

-Pedophilia
-Violence/gore/masochistic behavior
-Dominance

I suppose you can group rape under being aroused by dominating someone else. It isn't black and white, human sexuality is complex. Some rape because theydon't have enough sex. Some have enough sex but still rape because they are aroused by dominance. Either way they are aroused and it is about sex.
