"[M]en with extremely low self-esteem, given continued frustration with women, may eventually resort to rape. There is ongoing debate within evolutionary psychology over whether rape is an adaptation, a designed strategy that any boy might grow up to adopt, given sufficiently discouraging feedback from his social environment. Certainly rape surfaces in a wide variety of cultures, and often under the expected circumstances: when men have had trouble finding attractive women by legitimate means. One (non-Darwinian) study found the typical rapist to possess "deep-seated doubts about his adequacy and competency as a person. He lacks a sense of confidence in himself as a man in both sexual and nonsexual areas." - from "The Mating Mind" by Robert Wright
As humans, we are designed to do two things: survive and reproduce. The despair brought on by lack of success with females may often bring about two options in your typical, mentally-degraded AFC. In one case, he crumbles into psychological and social isolation, becomes depressed, and possibly commits suicide. The other option is to cut losses from one's moral integrity and risk social stigma, and coerce the female into sex.
The latter option is clearly better because, from an evolutionary perspective, it results in both a high probability of carrying on one's genes, and, by way of still being alive, survives. Suicide, however, results in the end of survival and zero possibility of carrying on one's genes.
Having suffered suicidal depression, social isolation, and lack of success with females first hand, this may not be such be a bad idea, rationally-speaking. Maybe, just MAYBE, I'll take a calculated risk instead of wallowing in self-pity, and resort to the latter aforementioned strategy. It is the logical thing to do.
It's f***ed up, I know. But the act has, is, and always will be a natural human-male behavior.
To the 20-something, desperate AFC virgins out there (and I know there are MANY of them lurking/posting on this forum), who's with me?
