All animals show a tendency to be aggressive at times, and human beings are no exception to the rule. It is important to understand the difference between assertiveness and aggressiveness. Assertiveness means standing up for yourself in an appropriate way.
It is taking care of your own needs without hurting other people. Aggressiveness means going on the attack, verbally or physically. This is done without consideration for the needs or rights of others.
When someone who has never been violent before suddenly show a tendency to be aggressive, it is possible that it is due to physical factors. A problem with the brain or nervous system, may be involved. Contact your primary health provider for a full physical examination.
Rape is a choice men make to use sex as a weapon for power and control. For rape to stop, men who are violent must be empowered to make different choices.
Violence against anyone, in any form, is a crime.
