Is it normal to want to kill rapists?

"Rapists are cowards, they never put themselves in danger, that's why they only attack defenseless women, and most of the time use brute strength"

Uh, no. Most rape is acquaintance rape, which means that it's done by someone the victim knows. Manipulation and an element of surprise can be just as important as force, if not more so, in such cases. Sometimes people are taken by force by strangers, but that's not the reality of most rape cases.

Also, when you tell women to carry a gun to prevent rape, you're placing responsibility on the victims. Instead of saying "don't rape", you're saying "don't get raped". Stop it.

That line of argument will justify arming everybody with a gun; which scenario is better, the one where an innocent guy walking along the street gets stabbed by a gang member mistaking him for a rival, or where an innocent guy walking along the street having seen his assailant pull out a knife shoots him and kills him before he has a chance? Therefore all young men should carry guns because they are the most likely to be victims of violent assaults, right?

Don't get me wrong. I think the common physiological superiority in terms of strength and size of men over women means that a man intending to rape a women will probably be able to overpower her, especially if she isn't trained in self-defense.

But I think arming and training all women to use lethal weapons to defend against attacks that are often non-lethal is ethically questionable. I think training to use weapons such as stun guns, pepper spray, batons etc. - weapons which can incapacitate usually without fatal consequences - makes a lot more sense.

I think it's everybody's prerogative to learn how to best defend themselves if they feel there is a likelihood they may one day be in a situation where it's necessary to do so. That goes for men as well as women. I think it's an individual's choice. But the way you declare "Every woman should carry a gun and know how to use it" makes it sound like it should be something legislated, like the government should arm its women because around every corner there lurks male rapists! Or families should make sure every daughter, before their 21st birthday, knows how to use a pistol, and is later bought their very own. It just sounds a little absurd to me, and I think that kind of broad justification for carrying around a lethal weapon could lead to a lot more violence, accidental deaths and murders instead of reducing rates of rape and sexual assault.

Yeah, I agree it's a horrible thing to lie about, but when it really happens, that's still worse.

That is kind of the piont I was making a good girl would not be getting naked and drunk I also do not think that it is always the raped victems fault as this is not why all women get raped some get raped by exes or dad or guys who frankly dont give a shit what the female wants he just want something to stick it in . I my self have been a victem of this mantality and harrasement and I do not go out getting drunk and partying all night so I do not see how I deserve this attitude . However yes I think it wrong for women to lie about being raped however I do not think anyone should have sex with anyone drunk . ITs simply is not right and I know this is just a movie but in Austin powers man of mystery he gets his female partner drunk and she trys to kiss him , however he refuses to becuase he says " Its not right your smashed ( meaning drunk) . Also alot of women get stuff slipped in there drink were they can not move and some slipped a drug were they can not move but they are aware of whats going on . So no women deserves to be raped .

People rarely actually get convicted of rape, though. I agree that lying about rape is a really shitty thing to do, but people exaggerate the scale of that problem.
