Something that bothers me is that males are overwhelmingly perpetrators of rape but there is little discussion (at least from my perspective) as the root cause as to why men do such horrible acts.

    I think what you’re trying to ask is “why are the majority of convicted rapists male.” There’s a lot of reasons. You could write an essay on the subject.

      I dunno if this is the right lane-- this line of questioning assumes from genesis that there’s just as many AFAB rapists that just don’t see justice in general; which… That seems like a super long-shot. There’s nowhere near as many material/structural reasons that men could have; w/rt being raised under patriarchal mores, objectification of the feminine ideal, and extreme atomization.
