So no, I don't think there's actually probability of the child being a rapist just because the dad was too, as long as he/she isn't educated in a society that makes rape something acceptable.
Well hey, refine a point to me, and learn me something new.
Probably more about the 'feeling owed'/having power over another than it is about patriarchy... it's important to remember that women can (and do) rape too. Usually overwhelming with emotional/psychological manipulation (blackmail for instance) that can leave the victim feeling just as powerless as physical might.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
