Someone posted on a list I'm on today, about their personal morality.

I'm going to be perfectly honest. Without going into long detail. Why I don't do some things isn't based on my religious beliefs at all. I go with how I feel.

I don't murder because I don't want to go to jail. Not only that but I actually do feel bad for families who have lost loved ones to murder, and I know what that feels like. There have been people who have made me that angry, but I hold back. Usually those people are a waste anyway, not worth my time.

I don't rape because, well, honestly I'm a woman and I don't have to. Too many horny guys in the world. If I want it that bad I'm pretty sure I can get it.

Maiming is too time consuming.

And stealing to me is just ridiculous. If anyone has anything I want I'll just pick up some extra hours to have money to buy it. If I was really bad off and starving on the other hand, yeah I would steal.

I'm sure there are as many reasons for raping as there are for rapists committing them, but unless you're rehabilitating them or writing a book about them, these reasons are irrelevant compared to the act of rape itself.

what chironcentaur said...but I would call the reasons far from irrelevant, as knowing why someone might commit such a monstrous act may be helpful in prevention.

right. also known as "rehabilitation."

can you really rehabiliatate a rapist?
