This is the
buzzphrase
for the scientific theory that men are wired to rape women as an
evolutionary
survival tactic. Going down this road is bad for so many reasons that it strikes me as quite possibly the most iresponsible thing I've ever heard. The buzzphrase "
all men are potential rapists
" is sometimes used as an insult (albeit infrequently) by militantly
chauvinistic
women in order to make men feel cowed and ashamed of their
supposed
nature.
Though there may be a little or a lot of truth behind it, the
victory celebration
of having science confirm this to the masses will last only as long as it takes for the frequency of
rapes
to skyrocket because of it. Telling a man having an internal struggle with his rape fantasies that it's not just Ok but
normal
to
rape
women is quite a fucking stupid idea; don't you think? How spreading this trash around is going to help anyone is beyond me as it is certainly no form of prevention; it's a catalyst.
Let us also remember the nature of women toward those whom they feel threaten their young. Does that mean
all women are potential killers
? If so, how would my running around naming them that enlighten or help anyone?
If there is a goal of
preventative education
, it is only wisdom to teach prudence and caution but labling men "
potential
rapists
" amounts to nothing more than childish,
vindictive slander
and nothing less than a whole slew of
psychologically sanctioned
, good ol' fashioned genetically healthy (yup, you guessed it)
rape

Men can download naked women. Women can't download men worshipping them. Ha ha!
