Is rape a form of social control?

is this question correct ? what do you think about this question?Is rape a form of social control?
It depends. During wartime invading troops committ mass acts of rape to terrorize the populace and to act in as hostile a manner as possible. So this would qualify both as a political crime and as a personal one as well as a social one meant to terrorize women.


In general rapists are driven by hostility and the act itself is one of sadism. It is not an act of lust, it is an act of hate, and what women are wearing has nothing to do with it - here we have countless examples of 80 year old women at home wearing pajamas asleep under the covers being raped by intruders. The act must be examined within its context.Is rape a form of social control?
Rape comes in five types -


Most are based on personal power over another - some of those also incorporate a dislike of women, some a hatred, some simply because the female is an easier target for their rage. For a complete review look up the FBI profile of rapists or a document by Anna McGrath on rape.
