    Challenging The Etiology of Rape A Voice For Men

    Uploaded by

    adamserwer
    This document discusses and challenges common views on the causes of rape. It argues that claims that rape is solely about power rather than sex do not make logical sense, as the primary targets are women rather than other vulnerable groups. It then questions whether women who dress or act provocatively bear some responsibility for being raped, comparing it to leaving a car unlocked. While stating unequivocally that nothing justifies rape, it argues some women's behaviors effectively invite being "pummeled and pumped." It acknowledges some will disagree with this perspective.

    Paul, I find myself in two minds about what youve said here. Certainly, rape has
    and often is used as a convenient way to falsely villainise fatherhood (patriarchy),
    but I also think that theres more scope to things with rape as well. Cases like
    mistaken identity for example, which does happen.
    I do agree that there needs to be more accountability with women though with
    how they dress, in the same way that you would expect someone traveling
    through a dangerous area to take precautions- of course that doesnt justify the
    actions of the rapist in any way shape or form.
    Another problem which I have to say your article is guilty of falling into the trap of
    is the stereotpyical rape picture of male rapist, female rape victim.
    Ultimately I think the big problems here, as you have correctly pointed out, are
    both the way feminism denies the notion of female accountability while
    continuing to try and paint a picture of the stereotype of female victim, male
    perpetrator.
