#72 Randy Thornhill: Why Men Rape, and How to Prevent It With Science

[@bhargavk1515]

Huge respect for podcasting this...think you releasing it publically. I'm gonna watch it now...very excited.

[@Grace0724]

How does the fact that 45 percent of rapes are committed by an acquaintance and an additional 25 percent by a current or former intimate partner link to this theory?

[@2degucitas]

That probably fits into the "looking for sex opportunity" .

[@ishrendon6435]

Girl rape is rape doesnt matter who is the victim.

[@V3rnSqwd5611]

Holy shit this is a tough conversation to have but absolutely fascinating. If we can understand why rape happens we can prevent. It is our job to overcome nature.

[@lealea6020]

I agree with teaching people about evolution about human sexual differences..

[@Blackgirlproblems2022]

I think Randy saying the need to reproduce is strong .And women and girls should know that.And if they can't get it willing there take it by force

[@V3rnSqwd5611]

That’s not at all what he’s saying. He’s saying it could be a biological adaption and if we can understand why rape happens we can prevent it.

[@joannamonique707]

yes. thats whats becoming very obvious in this generation. Women are choosing themselves and men are threatening us with violence because of it. Women were taught that boys were pushy, but we didnt know it was to this extent.

[@joannamonique707]

I have watched many of your videos. Great guests and great questions! Thank you. Together you provide a great view of the field of anthropology today.

[@edgarmorales4476]

It must be understood that prior to intercourse there should never be a sense of grievance, buried hostility, contempt and denigration. Any such feelings must be fully resolved before sex is resumed. In a relationship where discussion and freedom of speech is accepted as normal, each partner should resist the act of sexual love until a powerful inter-force of responsive love has been built up, and the consciousness of both partners is in a state of pure equilibrium. As for rape - this is the most heinous act against another and will draw to itself its own just rewards. Rape proceeds out of an especially warped and distorted Ego (the guardian of individuality). The frequencies of consciousness vibrations of such people are so low and ponderous as to be personally destructive. In the olden days, society was continually taught and sermonized. In western countries, the Ten Commandments are rightly presented as being the true foundations of a civilized and humanized culture, teaching self-control and readily acceptable to all religions worldwide. Today, with the strengthening of the Ego (the guardian of individuality) due to the influence of the entertainment industry and media, Ego (the guardian of individuality) has control.

[@bhargavk1515]

Idk how but my solutitons to rape problem are exactly similar to what Dr. Randy has proposed...to provide ample opportunity environment for men....that way they can express themselves and win in micro games...assend in social hierarchy...and enter a consentual legitimate sexual relationship.

[@foreverworshipjesuschrist3263]

Astral rape is the most traumatic thing anyone can experience. That is why I will never have sex again, rape destroys any lust you have ever felt for a man. That is why chastity is a truly magnificent act of worship. Jesus Christ will return and we should be Holy before him

Did you take me of years for Ben?To develop to be prevasting is this deep deep time?What a lot of nonsense it's called sin

[@happycamper3561]

Sick and twisted explanation. Rape happens when a man has no respect or value for himself or others.

[@Ohkeh640]

Agreed

[@Ohkeh640]

Sick men

[@ishrendon6435]

Well rape is part of biology it isnt unique to humans lol but nice try. You can hate it but its reality. Its like saying violence is used by people who have no values or respect lol it doesmt change anything the biological urge to commit violence as a species will always be there. I dont get your emotional response. You can accept science but it isnt a justification. Youre just like liberals and conservatives who deny science because it goes against there ideals

[@lealea6020]

Exactly. This evolutionary explanation is stupid. The men that rape can decide not to rape... But they still do it out of power or thrill.

[@NowNot-r4m]

That may be one of the reasons, but that does not show a more comprehensive view and more reasons why men rape.

[@bluetickbeagles116]

I always thought rape and sexual violence is natural for species reproduction. It’s a very hard, dark truth of life.

[@raaheelaamir]

But Still women are attracted to men. Especially if the guy is tall, muscular, handsome...

[@technoloverish]

That’s incorrect. Plenty of rape victims are older women or young girls, both of which are infertile demographics.

@Moris Hustler Music So I'm guessing you're a Christian puritan or an incel. And do you have a source can cite that information from?

[@meenakshireher8998]

Worst professor I've ever had, who is spreading misinformation.

[@ishrendon6435]

Next youll say violence is not part of human kind lol all animals use violence such as rape .

[@ishrendon6435]

I dont understand do you rhink rape is unique to humans?? Lol if you think that study more. Violence isnt unique to humans why would rape be?? We evolved many nasty things but if you think humans are morally good or some nonsense uhhhh science and facts is not for you if it hurts your feelings. Nobody likes desth but we all accepted the harsh truth

[@DYLAN102001]

You are projecting.

[@V3rnSqwd5611]

Rape happens in nearly every species of animal and we come from animals. If we can learn why rape happens we can prevent it. It’s our job to overcome nature with morality. It’s a very tough conversation to have but needs to be talked about.

[@BaddieQueensTV]

Consensual sex is more common in nature therefore rape is a byproduct of something sick in the male. STOP Normalizing something that isn't even the norm.
