You suggested earlier that rape is always motivated by misogyny.

As a survivor you shouldn’t be trying to push legal precedents that would make rape cases even more difficult to successfully even take to trial, let alone win.

“Christ”

And my point remains that misogyny is not the only motivator of rape, and shouldn’t be used to say ALL rape is a legally defined hate crime.
