Some people in this newsgroup seem to have the idea that rapists are
crazy, insane, or overly violent in comparison to other men.  This
is not the case.  Psychological tests given to convicted rapists
(and since rape convictions are rare, the chance that a significant
number of these men were wrongly convicted is also rare) show that
they are not significantly different from ordinary men.  No crazier,
not insane, and no more violent.

I am neither making claims nor drawing conclusions from this fact.
At least not publically.
