You can have that feeling all you want. Show me a study, any study. I think my fellow members here will attest that I'm usually pretty intellectually honest. If you can prove your case then go for it. I'm still not convinced because, still, no one has linked me to anything to conclusively say most rapes are about power and control. I'm not denying it might be the case in many situations, but I personally don't think it's as cut and dry as that.
Quote:I said that as well.I made a list of the elements and causes of rape and power and control was among them. Check it out if you want in the previous posts if you don't believe me.
If I remember correctly I gave you kudos on that very post.
Quote:The reason why he and I concur it's because it is what they say in many studies.
That one of the causes of rapists desires comes from the feeling of gaining power because they feel emasculated by a member of the opposite sex.
And if you don't believe us(because I have the feeling that your not gonna just accept what I said)that's up to you.However I'm not gonna start looking studies that you can search perfectly by yourself just because you don't believe me. I'm not your lackey.
That's fine, I could find many studies that are equally as compelling to suggest that rape is not about power and control. Bottom line is nothing is conclusive, and I'll continue to call out the bullshit of anyone who says so when they won't even be arsed to back up their fucking claims. That's not my job. If you say something I think the least you should do is provide better evidence for what you're saying than "most psychologists say this".
