A woman who fantasizes about rape doesn't want to be raped, but a man that does, wants to rape?

Women having rape fantasies doesn't make them really want to be raped.

Women watching rape porn doesn't make them want to be raped.

Women watching rape porn in which women rape MEN doesn't make them want to do that either.

But somehow, all that cause and effect stuff is out the window when we talk about men. Suddenly we're supposed to believe that men having watching rape porn will make them want to rape.

How the fuck does THAT work?

Men are simian beings which are subject to the chronic effects of erotoxins which inevitably turn them into porn-zombies, no longer able to differentiate between fantasy and reality. Studies have shown this conclusively.

There are some women who really are man-haters. Those same women will lower a man's ability to make the correct choices to that of an animal in the rut.

That if men behave like a moose in rut that they would choose to line up on opposing sides and run headlong into each others heads, knocking them out. Oop. I think I have football confused with courting.

Bainesbain repeatedly insists that watching rape porn makes men rape. But women that engage in rape fantasies do not want to be raped. See the logic issue?

Because obviously if you don't agree, you must be a misogynist. Why so many fall for this nutty reasoning is beyond me. I've seen grammar school kids make better arguments.

The effects of pornography, whether violent or non-violent, on sexual aggression have been debated for decades. The current review examines evidence about the influence of pornography on sexual aggression in correlational and experimental studies and in real world violent crime data. Evidence for a causal relationship between exposure to pornography and sexual aggression is slim and may, at certain times, have been exaggerated by politicians, pressure groups and some social scientists. Some of the debate has focused on violent pornography, but evidence of any negative effects is inconsistent, and violent pornography is comparatively rare in the real world. Victimization rates for rape in the United States demonstrate an inverse relationship between pornography consumption and rape rates. Data from other nations have suggested similar relationships. Although these data cannot be used to determine that pornography has a cathartic effect on rape behavior, combined with the weak evidence in support of negative causal hypotheses from the scientific literature, it is concluded that it is time to discard the hypothesis that pornography contributes to increased sexual assault behavior.

and other thrill rides cause suicide? Is there a precipitous increase in suicide from skydivers or mountain climbers? People take every kind of human experience to the edge of the envelope one way or another. Sex is no different.
