The perpetrator is not bound to find out that the victim didn't want to have sex. What if the victim doesn't say anything about it afterwards or never meets the person again, and by just looking back the perpetrator might think "she didn't say no, so she must have wanted it" or that her trying...
I don't really understand, if they don't know they are being insensitive then they might very well care about their partners well being. I don't think it more common at all that people knowingly commit rape, I think it's more common that rapists commit rape without being aware that what they are...
I think she's ignorant about what kind of people can be rapists. I think many rapists do care but they are ignorant of what consent is, they're even ignorant of what rape is.
What I'm trying to tell you is that rape is not just done by monsters. Rape is not just committed by "men hiding in a woods" it's also done by the nicest people you will ever meet, your best friend, the guy who's always the first to respond when someone is sad or injured. Rape can also be to not...
The scariest things about thenexttodie's point of view, that rapist should be put to death, is that there are so many men who don't know that they are rapists. When people think of a rapist they think about someone who stalks women at night, grabs them and starts beating them into submission so...

But he hasn't really said that you would defend his behaviour.
Yes...
I was in Romania some of the times he did it, I wasn't exactly keen on exploring what their legal system is like. But I guess that would have been a good place for him to go to prison.
I don't care what happens to him, I'm not usually for death penalty but I don't think he will ever realize...
Uhm what?!
I never reported it to the police. I think would be hard to prove anyway because he didn't beat me, I just tried to get away when I wasn't in the mood but he had sex with me anyway. He did it several times. We were together for 7 years. I tried to break up with him many times but he...
