Hierarchy, Patriarchy and the continued existence of the state that protects rapists from self-defense actions of those they target as well as deterring preventative measures of all kinds.

The pressure to 'get laid' before you're 20. I can remember the pressure to do a one-night stand or I'd be alone forever the moment I turned 25.

That's not what I meant, I meant I had societal pressure to have sex at all.

I definitely do not thing getting laid is the same as raping anymore and my 'last resort' was going to be paying a prostitute for the record.

As another correction, it wasn't so much 'being alone forever' as it was being judged by others for being a virgin.

Please, maybe I deserve blame for thinking like that but I was never so heartless to think of doing it, I was in a mind paradigm of No Sex = Neckbeard = Lower then trash. Now I think Rapists are much worse then Neckbeards.

I didn't even want to have sex until others pressured me. I was fine just masturbating.

I realize this now but I had to go through the Seven stages of grief including bargaining and I realize this is also part of my conditioning.

I realize now that I was mostly Regurgitating Incel propaganda that I heard when I was a teenager rather then thinking for myself.

No, I didn't try rape anyone, I just tried pickup lines and failed.

Until I was shamed I was fine masturbating until they told me it was pathetic.

Not sure why people are downvoting you. Rape is one of patriarchy's biggest safguards. If it's safe not to be a cis man, then there goes the "eat or be eaten" mentality and the requirement that you find safety in power over others, and patriarchy is obsolete. Pressure to "be a man" and have sex is definitely part of that

I don't really agree with you, when I made the post I basically just unthinkingly listened to the Incel posts online who make a disproportionately large amount of noise but most perpetuate rape the least.
