The research on rapist motivation is relatively scarce on either side. The support for the notion of rape as dominance instead of sex is partially rooted in studies of offenders and victims; but mostly rooted in the push for rape victims to be seen as more than sexual pawns who tempted and sexually enticed a horny offender.
