butterscotch'smomma	How can you ask such a ?? YES, rape is wrong. Having been raped, over 20 years ago......it is something that is very dramatic, and something that NEVER leaves your mind....EVER. It is devastating......and for someone like you to suggest that it is NOT wrong, well, that is just wrong! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

melissaw77	Not only society, butme as a woman says so. Why would you post a question like this are you a rapist? Do you just want to get people Riled up? What isnt wrong about it. A person is forced against there will by a person whom is stronger than them, to do things that are a complete Violation of there body and phsyce(however you spell it) and it degrades them and humiliates them. They feel shame as if they did something wrong, and they may not ever get over it, dreams and flashbacks may haunt them forever. A child who is raped has a entire life ahead of them knowing there is evil in the world, and dealing with a shame that noone should ever feel. Its not just a crime of physical force, but of mental torture!!! So I guess you succeeded in Makeing people upset, they say what comes around goes around.......... Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Roxy	It is always wrong, because you are forcing your own will onto someone else, despite their protests to the contrary. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

gusdiamond	It is very wrong in our modern civilised society. We have spent years evolving from cavemen when it was probably the norm. We have built this society to say that it is very very very wrong to treat somebody in that way. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

jenz	RAPE IS A HENOUS CRIME, IT'S NOT A DREAM BY ANYONE! SO WHY WOULD YOU THINK IT IS NOT WRONG??? WHEN SOMEONE FORCES YOU TO DO SOMETHING THAT YOU DON'T WANT TO DO AND THREATEN YOUR VERY EXISTENCE IF YOU DON'T FOLLOW, DON'T YOU THINK IT IS CLEARLY WRONG?.. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

herbal ashtray	of course its wrong, its hardly right is it? No female, male or child deserves to be raped its the most vile thing, men who do this should be castrated and locked away Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Rammy	What the hell? Do you think that men forcing frightened women to have (mostly unprotected) sex with them, then often killing them afterwards is acceptable? No, I didn't think so. Maybe you should have checked the definition of rape before you asked this question! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Tony A	If you need to ask the question there is something not working properly in your head. Rape is one of the most vile crimes you can commit against another human being and I include both men and women. In my opinion a man who rapes a woman should be made to do his time in a woman's prison and made to mix with the rest of the inmates. A man who rapes a man? Well I am sure somebody in a male prison would, "Show him a good time". A woman who rapes a man? I'm still trying to find one. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Nickynackynoo	You are strange Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

<BEE>	I dont think forcing yourself on someone would ever be right even if society said it was,which I dont think will happen. scary that you ask if it is wrong. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Orla C	Any form of sexual assault is wrong. That's all it is - assault. Sexual assault can make it very difficult for the victim to get close to others afterwards. There is the physical damage done to the victim, the tearing of the tissue in whatever orifice the rapist used, the other physical damage caused by the victim being held down. There is the sense of anger and disbelief that someone would inflict their person on you in such an intimate way when you don't want it. It's the worst violation ... There is the self-hate that comes afterwards, that you let yourself get into this situation, that you didn't see it coming. And also the people who love you, they feel angry and helpless because they couldn't help you when you needed their help. There is the horrible confusion that in some way you brought this on yourself, because you mistakenly trusted someone who all the time was planning to violate you. Or someone. No, rape is wrong. Absolutely wrong. Any form of sexual assault or molestation is an abomination. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Heather	You are SICK!!!!! Doing ANYTHING that is not consensual it NOT OK... Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

richie	you don't know anyone that has had to go through the aftermath then. it does more than equal a quickie for the rapist, it scars the victim into thinking that they had somehow caused it. they blame themselves, live in shame, and fear how loved ones will take it. of course it's wrong. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

andylegendoneill	Seriously - sometimes I wake up in the morning and think yeah today is gonna be a great day - i might make it all the way through without meeting a complete moron - well done sire youv'e just ruined my day - Ioften ask myself when I come across people like you "is this person sick? do they have some mental retardation?" and I can never come up with a proper answer because I simply dont have an explanation as to why people like yourself ask such stupid, immature, insensative, retarded, moronic questions. I hope for the safety of myself and everyone else on the planet you never breed - One of you is dangerous - 2 of you would be apocolyptic Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lostkuri	"It`s abuse and a violation of a womans body." Rape can also happen to a male too, it's just more common to hear that it happens to females. Whether it's wrong or not, I believe that it is wrong, not because of what society says, but because it hurts a person, not just physically but also emotionally. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

booklady	Hurting people, attacking them in any way is generally viewed as wrong unless it's in self-defence. Rape is a particularly nasty form of attack, and it can never be in self-defence, because how could you protect yourself from someone by raping them? So rape is wrong. Personally I'd go with 'really wrong' because a rapist inflicts a great deal of mental injury as well as physical injury, and the consequences of the act can last for a lifetime for the victim and have an effect on every part of her/his life. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

jurydoc	If one has any respect for an individual's right to determine what happens to his/her own body, then, by definition (i.e., without consent) rape would be wrong in the absolute. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

OohErMissus	You must be insane to even ask this question. stupid crass bastard Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

**≈STEVIE≈ ≈B≈**	IT`S WRONG, FULL STOP! It`s abuse, and a violation of a womans body. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

jamand	I'll send some boys around with a tube of lube and then we'll see if you think Rape is wrong - diP ShiTe Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Mike Sanders	Rape is the worst violation of any ones human rights i can think of and i think its a disgrace to suggest otherwise. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

♥haggisbasher♥	Of course it is wrong, it is a violation of the body, it is often brutal and savage and destroys lives, how can you even ask if it is wrong???? Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

ceadmilefailte1982	It is very wrong. No one should ever be forced to do something they don't feel is in their best interest. The worst situation would be if a child were to come out of it; especially if the victim was under the age of fourteen. I actually feel worst for men that it happens to because if they complain, they are simply laughed at for not being able to fight off the attacker. For that instant, they feel exactly how a woman does. It's not so much the act, but the after affect that some live with or some choose not to live with and take their own life. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Timothy S	Wrong. Violating someone is never going to be right. Stevie B. Not just a woman's body, anyones body. Bizarrely enough, male rape in the UK is still only classed as assault. Crap isn't it. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Rachel	how about we arrange for it to happen to you then you tell us if its wrong because society says so or not. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

caroline1409f1	Of course it's wrong - it's a complete violation. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

The Patriot	It is really wrong. If you are in any doubt, get some people to rape you. (And for the record, men can be and are raped, one place this occurs being prison.) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

clairybaby	Are you kidding! Or shall I put something into your unmentionable area without your consent? Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

saywhat	Lets say we have someone rape you, and you can decide Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

johnfarber2000	If rape was not illegal because someone needs to rape another person, then theft and even murder could be justified on that basis. Rape implies that someone does something to you against your will, a violation of your person, a violation of your rights, so in any developed society that should and is against the law.
