    How much of a worm do you have to be to rape an 83 year old? It’s just puzzling to me

        Agreed, but I find it even more inhuman and bizarre when the victim is really old or really young. I know it’s about the power for psychos more than it’s about the looks of the victim but I guess I still have trouble conceptualizing how they can do that to someone so helpless. Not trying to write off any rape though, every single one is a tragedy.

          The way I see thing, this is a very dangerous way of approaching the matter.
          Imagine how a young adult that is a bodybuilder/athlete/etc that has been raped, would feel if they stumbles on something like that.

            Yeah I get what you mean. I’m just going to shut up because you’re right; my ability to conceptualize what would bring someone to do something horrible doesn’t do much but potentially hurt actual victims. Apologies if I’ve hurt anyone with my rambling.
