There goes our resident misterogynist - blaming it all on men!

You seem to conveniently overlook the way women have manipulated men from time immemorial! Just look at the world's oldest profession, based on the ruthless way women exploit men's weaknesses for monetary gain.

Also, remember that men are often driven to extreme actions to defend and provide for their women (or girlies if you prefer).

Why not? They are both human instincts of attraction. Rape isn't.

No one wants to marry a rape. Plenty of child marriages though.

No one wants to marry a pedophile, either.

I wouldn't put money on that. A pedophiles might get married in other countries where such things are commonplace. And that guy who said he killed JonBenet, John Mark Karr has had a girlfriend in his last few interviews. There's somebody for everybody. Hell, even guys with kidney failure can trick a woman into marrying them.

But that wasn't the point of that statement. My point was that you can't marry a forced sexual act. And there's no one that I can think of that has distinguished rapophilia as a possible sexual orientation. I fail to see how you can be attracted to a rape as you can a child, opposite sex, same sex, other species.

Thanks, Myt, but we are definitely more warm-weather than cold-weather people, and DEFINITELY more beach than mountain people.

Very kind offer though!

Thanks, PN. We have done quite a bit of recon in Tampa, and have found a very diverse and emerging historical neighborhood that we are focusing our search upon. We had rented a house there for a week, and instantly felt right at home.

All we really need now is the right job opportunity and a kick in the butt.

There are people who can ONLY get excited by rape.

If you move to Tampa, I can dehumanize you in person. My mother-in-law lives in New Port Richie and I have an aunt in Clearwater.

That is true, but that's fetish, not the same as a sexual orientation. Needing to smear poop on yourself to get off is different than being attracted to the opposite/same gender.

As a member of a balloon fetish web site, I have never heard any of the members say that they "love" a particular balloon. But in my reading on zoophilia for example, I have seen several examples that expressed such feelings for their animal lovers. And as disgusting as that sounds, to them, the feelings are as real as yours are for your partner and mine are to my wife.

An adult having sex with a child is RAPING the child.
And gary, if men didn't provide so many statistics over the centuries of the abuse they have showered upon women, some might believe your drivel. But the record is there to back me up.

I
belive it is mens weakness and inablitiy to control their urges that are the root of the problem. Women have been subjected to this irrational fear that men have of them because they can't control their desire. And since a man is too weak to control his actions, he must blame women for his weakness. It really is very simple to see.
