Typical...expressing a botched pagan worldview where rape is primarily viewed as "sex" (to be "enjoyed" of all things) vs. rape as first and foremost an act of shameless violence.
But, hey...way to go to bat for rapist perps out there!
Be sure if you're ever called upon to be considered as a juror in a rape case, to say something equivalent to the above...so that the prosecution would readily dismiss you as prejudicial in favor of rapists.
(I certainly wouldn't want you as a juror if I had a daughter victimized by rape)
Hey, that's the worldview our porn factories have been churning out; so it doesn't surprise me when so-called "conservatives" forward it by exporting it.
Prior to the Internet porn era...
...when universities were still able to conduct the types of surveys it did...
[when there were actually men who had been limited in their exposure to porn...so that researchers could actually distinguish 'tween "massive" "moderate" and "no" exposure to porn]
...UCLA found interview subjects -- people who could be classified into those three categories.
Then they asked them a Q (& I believe they asked it of both men and women): "If you were a juror, how many years' sentence would you give a convicted rapist for their crime?"
Result? The more exposure the interview subject had to porn, the less jail time they recommended for the rapist.
Just as bonfire/campfire sparks burn holes in clothing, our cultural sparks' burns holes in worldviews, convictions, justice, and sensitivity to allow room for compassion.
All of your comments in this thread show a godly righteousness. For those who care about Him and His Words, we all need to accept the admonishment.
If there is a single area of intense enticement for men, it is in the area of desiring intimacy with attractive women. The absolute worst time to deal with this in a godly way is as a teen male, surrounded by females, peers and otherwise, who can appear so perfect that you’d think angels in Heaven could not look more beautiful. It is the toughest thing to resist.
I know this is not how it is for women, though.
You catch the men in this thread showing their banal side, mentioning the things that would only have been kept inside or shared with other men in more private settings.
