The most common form of rape occurs in a personal intimate relationship, and is A common feature in domestic violence is the very epitome of assertions of power and control, as is the rapes that occur.
raping a sleeping victim is the most sure way to assert power.
the next most common is a rapist who is known to the victim, (used to be called date rape or acquaintance rape). The rapist does not concern themselves with consent.
The least common is stranger rape.
Lack of consent is the key feature in rape, rapist are not driven by sexual desire, for the target, of violence, they are driven by attitudes to mostly women that they can have power over them, where that may not exist in their wider lives.
Or some other twisted attitude towards women in general.
Rapists do not fancy or desire their victim, they get off (ejaculate) because they have taken power from another.
It is not an actual expression of sexual desire. Nor is it an act of sexual expression.
If the victim is not reciprocal or fights, the more thrilling it becomes. The thrill and gratification is the motive and the cause of satisfaction.
Sure some have. Fantasies about rape, in a sexual way. This is not the same thing.
Rape is the worst violation that can happen apart from murder.
The logical conclusion for those questioning this well established and accepted principal, lead us to the idea that women can prevent rape by compliance, dressing less proactively and staying in or be chaperoned.
I cannot believe that people still harbour such appalling and regressive views.
