What is the analogy to women regarding locking doors? Is there something that simple we can do to prevent rape? If so, and you know what that simple thing is, your're a genius. No one else has been able to figure it out. Enlighten us.

Women are overwhelmingly more interested in people. Men are overwhelmingly more interested in things. This is a scientific reality, not my opinion.

Men are tinkerers, women like to talk. Men are more concerned with principles, women are more concerned with outcomes. Men are builders, women are caretakers.


Women are far more bonded to their family and their children. Women, in defense of their children, will attack you with the ferocity of a lion. Men tend to be more rational and fair-minded. Men demand respect and order. Women demand acceptance.


There is a biological explanation for all of these tendencies. But I never proclaimed any of these things to be either inferior or superior.
100% spot on!

If a woman is with the suspect, and they know each other, then I would assume confirmed identity is not an issue. If you know someone, then DNA is not always evidence. There's no nefarious reason why DNA wouldn't be present on both parties. Semen isn't always involved, you know.

Again, why? I know you means I want to **** you?

Get real.

I was talking about the cases where the woman does not know the suspect. You're not keeping up.

No but it can be more likely that the person wanted to, especially when they're are voluntarily alone together, drinking etc.

That's why I think it helps for women to dress more modestly, especially in professional or academic settings.
Part of the problem.

I don't think it would be preferable to females if males were like women and completely ignored or rejected almost all females all the time unless they are exceptionally attractive and of high status and approached the male first.
