Just briefly checking around on the internet showed that at least in Great Britain, no study has ever been done on why men rape elderly women. Nada. And no interviews with the rapists, either. But reporters drag out the same old clichés about “power” from Susan (Pysch Class 101) Brownmiller without asking how did the guy get an erection in the first place.
Sorry to be gross but it’s a question. Sex starts in the brain. These people are unnatural and need to be put down.
probably Viagra....sadly, all too many men need it nowadays...(NOT MY MAN!)
Special Agent Mark E. Safarik, a profiler in the Behavioral Analysis Unit at the FBI Academy, has researched and written extensively about the topic of sexual homicides of elderly women. The study, published in the May issue of the Journal of Interpersonal Violence, involved a review of 110 offenders who perpetrated the rape and murder of 128 women 60 years and older. The mean age of the victims was 77.
People find it difficult to imagine why a rapist would target an elderly victim, because society still equates sexual arousal and desire with rape, Safarik said in a phone interview. Youre dealing with issues of power and anger in these cases, and for a number of these offenders the victim is largely symbolic, he added. Safarik speculated that the anger level, particularly with those who target elderly women, could be one explanation for the high murder rate of victims.
