I was raped at knifepoint when I was 19/20 just like this guy, and what he says about the instinct of “comply or die” is very real.

Of course, I also went to prison, but I didn’t see or experience this there. I did hear stories of it happening in higher-security prisons, however.

What he describes here (and his solution to it) is pure hierarchy, which is how I also processed my own rape. It’s why I have repeatedly said (despite some controversy) that male rape is a natural function of hierarchy.

I say that while not condoning it.

Men and Alphas use rape to reinforce hierarchical status, to subjugate those resistant to their hierarchical place, to reassert dominance. It’s a tool, albeit a clumsy and sometimes inaccurate one.

To those who have been raped, I hear you. And to those who have raped, I understand you.
