So what? Totally irrelevant to the discussion. What are you going to say next - the sky is blue? Humans are also able to inhibit their impulses - it's how we got civilization. Saying primates rape when discussing sexual harassment in the military amounts to shrugging your shoulders and saying c'est la vie. Is that really your intent, or were you just trying to amaze us with the triviality of your knowledge.

Yes, I was trying to amaze you with the triviality of my knowledge. The subject of the thread is "biological wiring" of rape. I merely reported what I know on the topic, vis a vis primate behaviour. Sorry you thought that was somehow an endorsement of rape.

I'm glad you don't.

But the topic is actually

$1:

Military sexual misconduct due to 'biological wiring,' Gen.

So bringing up that males are biologically predisposed to sexual aggression is either making an excuse for it or just throwing in a red herring. I think most people agree that males are capable of sexual aggression, from biologists to feminists who say all men are rapists. I mean we see it every day, we all know this. The point is that human males are able to inhibit this urge, and are expected to do so in our society. Doesn't matter if they are the rough men of the military that Bart adulates, or the university heroes, or freaking Bill Cosby.

Here are some fun facts about ducks and rape. Sometimes to the point of killing the female.

And of course to say that males are wired differently is saying that women never harass men. We know that's not true too. You guys really never had a woman that won't leave you alone. Hell, I had a boss who supposedly was a hard core lesbian, but after a few drinks over dinner would try to get me to go home with her.

Your eyeliner and blush confused her.

I thought they just brought out my eyes.
