This is not to assume that men are always the perpetrators when it comes to rape, even if by the laws of Nigeria, a man cannot be raped. Currently, Abuja is the only state with a progressive legislation on rape. VAPPA (Violence Against Persons Prohibition Act), the legislation with application in Abuja defines rape as “when a person intentionally penetrates the vagina, anus or mouth of another person with any other part of his/her body or anything else without consent, or with incorrectly obtained consent.”
Now we’ve put things in context, let’s proceed.
Why do men rape? We’ve heard it said it’s a power thing, an entitlement thing etc etc. Sky News sat down with men in South Africa to find out why they rape women. Their disclosures are terrifying. See below
What I just found on the net right now is sooo disturbing. A number of men were asked if they've raped before & why they do it…

I am so disgusted by the sense of entitlement men feel towards women! Too many sick people out here nxah!

I hope people would agree now that the death penalty is fitting for rape. Because this is just too disgusting and disappointing.
