Hi Elizabeth,

Perhaps, the best first thing you can do:
See that sexual violence is not between individuals, but between masculinity and femininity in the individual's own psyche.
Start from that position, and see which sex is generally drawn towards the willingness to submit to animal mindlessness. That will tell you which is most violent.
everyone thought he was either joking or not meaning it the way that it sounded, until he got arrested for being a serial rapist when he got caught with a woman bound and gagged. People see and hear stuff but they are so trapped in their denial, trying to protect their false sense of security, that they just let things happen.
People will deny sexual exploitation as long as they don't understand what causes any form of desire. And, if they submit to mindlessness, they're really cutting off their ability to understand, aren't they?
That understanding arises in a masculine mind, that includes traits such as logic, depth of thought, courage, love of truth, and disinterest in anything that degrades consciousness.
Hatred, disgust, annoyance, jealousy, or in any way viewing a group of people with distain is a formula for violence under the right circumstances. Understanding is the only way to dispell that.
Yes, but understanding what?
All those words you mention are just violent in themselves. You haven't analysed the intellectual source of violence.
Any violent behaviours are a result of violent thoughts and emotions. This is why physical violence is just the tip of the iceberg, at least in human psychology.
So, your question ought to be, what are the thoughts that cause violence? Don't worry about behaviours at this point. Those are after-effects.
...having to see a couple holding hands as the same thing as injurious forced sexual intercourse is almost as shallow as your half-thought....
I explained why needing to hold someone's hand is more violent and injurious than raping someone, in my reply to ExpectantlyIronic, above.
To repeat: a person who is fully immersed in violent thoughts and behaviour, such as while raping, has no part of the mind left to contrast it with, so it is quite "peaceful" (mindless).
But a person who still has some degree of consciousness left, such as a person who hasn't enacted violent thoughts and behaviours, and is still indecisive, experiences more violence, because of the contrast between "parts" of the mind.
And also, someone who is being raped doesn't necessarily experience any violence at all. It depends on the quality of their thoughts.

If you think this is a "shallow half-thought", why don't you explain why, in the "Zionist femininization of society" thread?

If you think this is a non-thought, feel free to tell me why, in the "Zionist femininization of society" thread.
Elizabeth wrote: Now, this thread wasn't about rape, it was about Bryan thinking that women have control over the men they have sex with (and I say that there are significant limits to that). Lets get back on topic.
I haven't left the topic. Rape is a good example of how Woman (and women who perform Woman) have control over men they have sex with.
If you don't see this, think: why does rape exist at all? Why is a man so desperately longing to attack a female and penetrate her? Is it not because Woman has such a powerful hold over him?
The female whom he attacks is really just something he projects the image of WOMAN onto. So, yes, it is the male's fault. But - wait - how can he project this image onto something that doesn't resemble it? He couldn't rape a can of Coca-Cola. So, the female is also at fault here, because she shows signs of WOMAN, whom the rapist is fanatical about raping. He would never try to rape a huge, down-to-earth, ugly, fat female, who didn't have any signs of being otherworldly, sensual, innocent, etc. He'd more likely expect that she'd shout him a beer, or be put off by her farting.
From David's
WOMAN: An Exposition for the Advanced Mind:
The males, through their inquisitiveness, courage, and rationality, open up the possibilities of great change, but it is woman who ensures that all change be kept to a minimum and that which she does allow be kept firmly towards the "common good". Man is by nature wild and adventurous. In him lie the possibilities of great creativity, but also the possibilities of great havoc and discord within the tribe. Hence, woman evolved with the power needed to restrain him.
Women often complain bitterly about the dreaded "patriarchal society" and their oppression under it, but I cannot believe that they are completely ignorant of the vast power they actually possess in society. Indeed, they play an enormous role in the historical process. The role of woman is not only one of reproduction and the rearing of offspring. Equally important is the emotional power the females possess over the males. Women are the preservers of the social organism, and the men are tools to this end. Thus history is as much a woman's story, even though it is true that as an individual she was very much out of the limelight.
Let us be quite clear here. Woman's emotional power over man does not come from the individual woman herself, but from the social fiction she embodies - WOMAN! It is this abstract, ethereal entity which we all worship, not the bags of blood and guts themselves. Of course, one look at the modern specimen with its lipstick, earrings, dresses and bubbly personalities is enough to make this statement seem unnecessary.
And what about this high-quality idea:
WOMAN is a cultural fiction to which all females are drawn, yet it is difficult to state exactly what it is. It appears intangible and out of this world, yet everybody knows its existence and feels its power. It fuses together into one seamless package the elements of purity, authority, otherworldliness, innocence, delicacy, erotica, playfulness, mystery, excitement, and power - and yet it transcends all these elements to form a vague yet potent something-or-other. Its effect is to transfix men and women alike, causing them to believe it the very heart and soul of life itself.
WOMAN is what humanity values most, for in it lie the greatest emotional happiness and comfort. It provides the irresistible illusion of purity and rock-like security. Above all, it promises, or seems to promise, refuge in which humans can attain what they believe to be the highest good - the freedom from all conscience. It is no wonder then that all human purpose, though it be multifarious in appearance, is constantly directed towards it.
In truth, humanity stands united under the banner of WOMAN, and the person who rejects WOMAN faces rejection by humanity. The biological females of our species embody WOMAN to a high degree, while the males are left out in the cold. Look carefully into this and you will uncover the essence of all male and female psychology.
Women, to the degree they conform to WOMAN, need not do anything at all. They are secure and passive. They need not think, struggle, strive, and despair after this profound psychological peace. But for men it is a matter of life or death! It is for this reason that the woman's mind is highly undeveloped compared with the man's. For no matter where she is or what she is doing in the world, a woman knows first and foremost that she is in fact - a woman. She lives and breathes in the knowledge that her prime asset in life lies precisely in her being this magical creature. Anything else is almost superfluous, a luxury, an added bonus to an otherwise perfect state of affairs.
Man, on the other hand, is completely bereft of such a magnificent power. He must fend for himself, relying upon his wits to etch his way in the world. Thus, out of necessity, man is continually looking at the broader picture, assessing the implications of each situation, thinking out the consequences of his actions, developing a consistent philosophy, and reflecting upon what is actually true. Out of his deluded struggle for acceptance into WOMAN, the priceless treasure of conscience is born. Though he begins by seeking WOMAN, he ends by rejecting HER, and it is here that his relationship to Truth begins.
