No, you actually don't, not if you don't consider it rape. That's the machismo bit - to these people, they're simply "taking" what they're "owed". It's why rape is so prevalent in fundamentalist religious communities here in the US - if your religion or your culture tells you that women exist solely to be subservient to men in every way, then it's not rape to have sex with them even against their will (by that logic), because they're made to serve men, whenever, wherever.
Sure, you're right. But yet, a woman screaming or begging "no" should still trigger something in them. As those "creatures" are the same "thing" as their beloved mothers. How could one seriously not see any connection there unless psychopathic? How can religous delusion make the mother holy and all other women unhuman toythings?
Then again... Religious nutjobs are already experts in mental gymnastics. Maybe i should just retract my question and just continue being misanthropic. Ugh.
I don't really care for the religion but in Hinduism they treat girls like literal goddesses to the point that almost feels sexist towards boys. Girls get free money during 'raksha bandhan' which is like a yearly bodyguard contract between a brother and a sister where the brother pledges to protect the sister and also pays her for the privilege of protecting her. And also in multiple other festivals they get money or get prayed to as a goddess effigy of sorts. Source: i was born into the religion unfortunately, and at no time I was taught to see myself as superior or that anyone owes me anything. These people are just sick.
