Interesting potential for interaction between culture
and genetics here. If there's a genetic link to rape
behavior, then a culture that tolerates it will see those genes propogate in the population. And vice-versa,
A culture that does not
tolerate it (and punishes in a way decreasing the fitness
of the rapist (or victim, actually)) will decrease that genome.
Combined with a cultural tolerancy for multiple partners, its clear that africa is one big incubator. Yet some (paranoids) think the West came up with HIV.
