C'est ce que désigne la notion "culture du viol". Un ensemble de croyances culturelles qui banalise les comportements qui outrepassent le consentement.
Je vais aller plus loin avec cette culture du viol.
Avertissement: Âmes sensible s'abstenir de lire ce qui suit.
Le primatologue Wrangham rapporte que, chez les chimpanzés, un jeune mâle ne sera accepté par les femelles qu'après qu'il aura démontré qu'il les domine, donc après qu'il les aie battues. (The goodness paradox, p 87)
... as males become adult, they go through a ritual of beating up on every female. A male's ability to intimidate females is a vital component of his strategy for having as many offspring as possible.
Pourtant, les femelles chimpanzés ne sont pas très sélectives avec les mâles: elles s'accouplent des milliers de fois avec tous les mâles avant de tomber enceintes.
La question suivante se pose... Pourquoi n'acceptent-elles que les mâles qui les dominent?
Et qu'en est-il chez la femme? Pourquoi plusieurs d'entre elles, surtout les plus jeunes, préfèrent les mâles alpha, dominants et agressifs, au lieu des mâles gamma, gentils et peu agressifs?
Est-ce que, inconsciemment, les femmes favorisent la culture du viol en choisissant les mâles alpha?
Concernant les femmes battues (Wrangham, The goodness paradox, p 20-21):
Certainly, wife beating—or, more generally, intimate-partner violence—is a
common human phenomenon. In 2005, the World Health Organization’s MultiCountry Study on Women’s Health and Domestic Violence produced detailed data
from twenty-four thousand women in ten countries.18 Physical violence by partners
included slapping, shoving, punching, kicking, dragging, beating, choking, burning,
and using or threatening the use of a weapon. In cities, the proportion of women who
said that they had experienced physical violence by their partners averaged 31
percent, from 13 percent in Japan to 49 percent in Peru. In rural areas, the rates were
higher, averaging 41 percent. Between 50 and 80 percent of the intimate-partner
violence was considered “severe.” These rates appear to be slightly above those in the
United States, where, in more than nine thousand detailed interviews, 24 percent of
women reported severe physical violence inflicted by an intimate partner.19 With such
high reported rates, the conclusion of WHO researchers Christina Pallitto and Claudia
Garda- Moreno is not surprising: “There is a clear need to scale up efforts across a
range of sectors, both to prevent violence from happening in the first place and to
provide necessary services for women experiencing violence.”20 Adding sexual
violence to physical violence worsens the picture. A 2013 WHO study found that the
proportion of women who had experienced either physical or sexual violence averaged
41 percent in cities and 51 percent in rural areas of their ten focal countries. The
equivalent figure in the United States was 36 percent.21
(Wrangham, The goodness paradox, p 290):
18. Garda-Moreno et al. 2005. Remarkably, most women who were surveyed
thought that male violence against female partners was often justified—for
instance, if a woman went out without telling him, neglected the children, or
failed to prepare his food. The proportion of women who thought that their men’s
action in beating them was sometimes justified ranged from 74 percent
(Thailand) to 94 percent (Ethiopia). Even in North America, where only 1.5 to 3.0
percent of women reported one or more acts of violence in the previous twelve
months, the frequency of intimate-partner violence is high enough to warrant
intense efforts to reduce it. The same index tends to be much higher in poorer,
more marginalized, and otherwise disadvantaged groups: in rural areas of
Thailand, Tanzania, Peru, and Ethiopia it was 22 to 54 percent.
Ici on a ce que j'appelle de la violence réelle. Pas du tout ce que mesure Bergeron dans son enquête-bidon. C'est contre cette violence qu'on doit agir pour améliorer le sort des "victimes" (femmes, enfants et hommes). Et pas aller à la chasse aux malaises comme Don Quichotte devant les moulins!
