I don't think it makes any difference what someone's wearing...for the most part. I think there are exceptions. I also think women are inviting dangerous attention when they are wearing ****-me clothes.
I think you're right.
I know the mantra these days is "its not about sex, its about power". Well, it is about power exercised sexually, if you like... any way you slice it, sex is involved. Not normal healthy sex, it is messed up evil sex, but sexual nonetheless.
I think rapists probably come in more than one flavor. One kind probably is all about power, and punishing women for some reason, making them suffer, etc.
But I'm pretty damn sure there's a Type II for whom it is more about sex. Messed-up evil sex, sure, but sex. The sort that thinks "I want to **** her, she'd never get with me in a million years but I'm going to **** her anyway whether she wants it or not!" This is more the date-rape type than the stalker type, but I'm reasonably certain this type DOES exist... and that in some cases his mind turns to forcible rape AFTER first getting turned-on...
Now ducking for cover as the Usual Suspects bring the artillery to bear on me...
