People are weird about Rape Is A Special Kind Of Evil.

I think it's because we rationalize killing a lot more. We give medals for killing, not so much for rape. We've all thought "I'm so pissed off I could kill someone!" but nobody thinks "I'm so pissed off I could anally violate someone underage!" I was just playing a video game where I must've killed fifty or sixty people, and didn't rape any of them.

And, of course, because it's a Special Kind Of Evil, we always have to make up reasons why a given case couldn't POSSIBLY be rape, because it wasn't evil enough...

This, basically. We can all see ourselves committing a lot of violent crimes for understandable (if not excusable) reasons and relate to characters who do them, we can think up scenarios where deliberate killing is a necessary evil, but it's really hard to apply that to rape.

It's not much of a choice, really, but if I had to pick being raped or murdered, as gross as it would be, I'd pick rape. Then again, I've never been raped, so I might feel different if I had been.

Then again, maybe not.

Not really, if you bother to think about it - it's all in the 'Why' of it. There are reasons why you might need to kill someone. There's never a reason why you need to rape someone. If you have someone who commits murder for the same reasons someone commits rape ('I really felt like it,' 'It made my dick hard,' 'they totally wanted to be murdered, they just were playing hard-to-kill') they're a terrible person on the same level as a rapist.
