beverly@109: serious man-haters and “woman-haters”

Serious funny post. Seriously, one of those subject where I linger not knowing whether to laugh or cry at the human condition.

To get to the serious part – or as far as my amateur armchair status will permit – sexual perversion, manifest to the level that leads to criminal behavior (as well as the new definitions of criminal behavior described in this post – and I happen to agree with Teresita that the subject behavior is an outlier data point, not a trend line) is expressed in bi-sexual modes as well. The most obvious examples being human trafficking and the “acceptance” of rape in too many African societies. The hatred may not be as overt as that expressed in more intimate gatherings, but neither is it a trivial or inconsequential part of the motivational drivers behind the behavior. Men who hate women prefer to express their hatred in sexually deviant and demeaning behaviors. The sex-based criminal demographic includes same-sex offenders (although some legal codes retain antiquated definitions, ala NY, IIRC, where definitional reforms are under consideration.)

The short point being – it is possible, necessary, to allow for the existence of sexually-motivated criminal behavior, while allowing for the reality of same sex couples who keep their private lives private and their public lives in line with the dictates of The Commons or General Welfare.
