Is rape really about power?

[gibert]

The subject of rape has been highly politicized. Feminists have this crazy idea that rape is always about power and never about sex. I think, with the exception of sadistic rapes, this idea is looney tune. Most men don't walk around thinking about having power over women by having sex with them. They just want sex. I also think that saying it is about power instead of sex, is a way to deflect responsibility off of women for putting themselves in certain situations. We do this for no other crime. For instance, I don't get out of my car and leave it running for obvious reasons. If I did, and someone jumped in it and drove away with it, no one, including the police would have a problem telling me I shouldn't have left my keys in the ignition with the car running. However, because it's car theft, it's not politically incorrect to tell me that my lack of decision making skills led to my car being stolen.


No one would say that the guy who stole my car really didn't want my car, they just wanted to oppress me or exert some kind of power over me. That would be nonsense. So why is this not politically correct to point out when it comes to rape?

I will bite on this issue:

every guy that I have wanted to rape and in certain positions is for sexual pleasure. Sorry, the issues of power is a man made idea...not too sure of the feminist saga.

Op is a rapist?

Yeah but on a serious note, the rapist mindset says ,its about sex, she deserved it, she wanted it, what did she think was gonna happen, she was ashamed of what she did etc. Typical mentality of a rapist, blame the victim

maybe more about being in control? i dont see how you can classify RAPE enteriely into one catigory, i beleive each rape case is defferent. the guy maybe wanted power but the next just likes being in control while the next just wanted sex. maybe 1 didnt think he was doing anything wrong becuase he is fucked up in the head, every case is different. either way i think they are all sick fucks and deserve to be sent into gen pop on a serious prison.....


oh this just occured to me to. maybe some guys like the fact they the sex isnt consentual. the only reason they do it is becuase its not wanted and not becuase they like having power over the other person

Rape isn't that bad. Just close your eyes and think of England

I think it has much more to do with a broad wanting rough sex from a random stranger, then crying foul later just so that she doesn't look like the dirty slut she is. But, that's just MHO.

GICH!

It was prison and i had nothing to do!

When I do it, it's just because I gotta have that pussy.

It's not a rape in my book if she has an orgasm.

isn't rape a guy that can't get laid overpowering a girl and taking it? or a more powerful man sticking his dick in a weaker mans ass? the one with the power doesn't get raped. seems kinda simple. power can be the sense not to put yourself in certain situations or the ability to fight your way clear of a bad situation taking you by surprise.

First, it's a misnomer that a guy rapes because he can't get laid. That's not always true. Second, overpowering a girl is the means to an end, not the end in itself. By that logic, you could say an armed robber isn't after money or jewels, just the thrill of holding a gun to someone and making them fear him. In most cases, that isn't true. In most cases, the motivation is money and jewels, although violence may have to be applied to get those things. It's the same way with rape.

Prison rape is the same way. Yeah it can be about power at times, but the main motivation is sex. In prison, most men, including those who rape and get raped, regard themselves as heterosexual. Very few prison rapist regard themselves as gay or bisexual. The image of a musclebound, effeminate sissy who wears lip gloss and wears his shirt in the front tied in a knot as a prison rapist is a false one. Most prison rapist are stereotypically masculine. However in the absence of women, they still want sex. So, this creates a problem if most men in there are straight, or claim to be. No one is going to volunteer his butt hole to be used as a pussy. Therefore, stronger men who want sex have to use force to get weaker men to comply. Again, the force is the means to an end. If no force has to be used, then most times, none is used.

I agree with most of this, altho I feel most guys can get laid if they wanted, its a sickness like pedaphiles. Your forcing someone against their will so there is some dominance issue that fuels the act of rape.

then why not get into BDSM?? there are plenty of chicks on craigslist that do that shit for free. not that i know from experience, but ive heard stories. my wife and I are starting to get into it and i can honestly say Its pretty fun and a hell of a workout, i got a good workout on my lower abs today

It completely depends on the person but I would think it would be about getting off, but definitely is a dominance thing as wel.
