the world has seen war babies produced by forcible rape for thousands of years most recently in the former Yugoslavia republic. Rape was at one time, an integral part of war as was pillaging and it’s purpose was to impregnate.

Nonsense. Huge numbers of rape victims in war ended up dead.

The purpose was not impregnation, though some of that may have occurred.

The purpose was one of dominance, of showing the opposing troops could not defend their women, of control--physical and political, of demonstrating violently that their opponents had been defeated.

Forcible rape is seldom about 'sex' in any normal sense, it is about domination.
