Reply #177: Sexual predators do not remember what their victims were wearing [View All]

[riderinthestorm]

I believe I read in one study it was something like more than 90% of sexual predators did not remember what their victims were wearing.

They simply saw prey. Someone who looked like a body they could over power, or they could "take", or control.

Rape is about power and control. It has absolutely nothing to do with what a person is wearing (or grandmas, infants, etc would never be victims - which they are).

I have studied rapists. I started working at my first rape crisis center as a freshman in college more than 30 years ago. I've since been involved in women's shelters, rape crisis lines, rape crisis advocacy, incest abuse counseling and more. "Many" women don't get targeted because they are attractive. They get targeted because they are seen as easy prey.
