Is it true that most male rapists were themselves raped at a young age and most of the perpetrators were mothers? Can someone send the source if it is?

Yeah. It is important, however, to realize that not a lot of CSA victims will become rapists whilst many rapists will have been CSA victims.

This meta-analysis, for example, found adult sex offenders to be more than 3 times as likely to have been victims of CSA:

We compared rates of sexual and other forms of abuse reported in 17 studies, involving 1,037 sex offenders and 1,762 non-sex offenders. We also examined the prevalence of different forms of abuse in 15 studies that compared adult sex offenders against adults (n = 962) and against children (n = 1,334), to determine if the sexually abused–sexual abuser association is even more specific to individuals who sexually offend against children. We observed a higher prevalence of sexual abuse history among adult sex offenders than among non-sex offenders (Odds Ratio = 3.36, 95% confidence intervals of 2.23–4.82). The two groups did not significantly differ with regard to physical abuse history (OR = 1.50, 95% CI = 0.88–2.56). There was a significantly lower prevalence of sexual abuse history among sex offenders against adults compared to sex offenders against children (OR = 0.51, 95% CI = 0.35–0.74), whereas the opposite was found for physical abuse (OR = 1.43, 95% CI = 1.02–2.02).

This study found incarcerated men in general to show high rates of CSA victimization of more than 1 in 2 and 90% of perps were female:

The current study examined the prevalence and characteristics of childhood sexual abuse in a jailed-based population. A retrospective, self-reported survey was administered over an 8-week period to a random sample of 100 men who were incarcerated in a county jail in Southeastern Texas. The survey included questions about childhood sexual experiences before and after puberty, drug history and use, and sexual risk-taking behaviors. Of the 100 male inmates who participated in this study, 59% reported experiencing some form of sexual abuse before puberty, and all such instances occurred before or at the age of 13 years. The first episode of childhood sexual abuse began at an average age of 9.6 years (SD = 2.4), and ended at an average age of 13.0 years (SD = 2.3). Kissing and touching without intercourse (64%) was the common pattern of sexual abuse experience reported. The total number of perpetrators was 165, with 10% male and 90% female. Friends (n = 72) and family (n = 56) were the most frequent perpetrators.

And another one:

This study explored the prevalence of childhood trauma in a sample of male sexual offenders (N = 679) using the Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE) scale. Compared with males in the general population, sex offenders had more than 3 times the odds of child sexual abuse (CSA), nearly twice the odds of physical abuse, 13 times the odds of verbal abuse, and more than 4 times the odds of emotional neglect and coming from a broken home. Less than 16% endorsed zero ACEs and nearly half endorsed four or more. Multiple maltreatments often co-occurred with other types of household dysfunction, suggesting that many sex offenders were raised within a disordered social environment.

A very high percentage of men who rape women were themselves sexually abused by adult women as children.

Many studies put this over 50%, making it "most".

I have never seen any kind of a link to their abusers being their own mothers though.

There are some sources here:

I don't think anyone cares enough about child sex abuse by women to bother to find out how common it is, let alone how much it might correlate with other things.

This is standard for people who are abusive or violent.

I mean, the columbine shooters were the victims of bullying, and Ed Kemper was verbally abused by his mother all his life and he murdered her and a bunch of teen girls.

Interesting. The feminists always tell us that men create men's problems. I wonder what happens if you show them this.

I've heard that multiple times. Same with paedophilia. I'm sure smart people of this subreddit can confirm or deny my statement.

Rapers are Rapers. Don't try to justify it. I vouch for my rights but I will never support what this post suggests.

cristoZz_ · 2021-08-06T18:37:56+00:00

I think it depends... Rape is a crime, you can't justify it.

_limitless_ · 2021-08-06T19:09:01+00:00

no, this is stupid. some were. and some kids who were molested don't become rapists.

there's probably a correlation between experiencing sexual trauma and causing sexual trauma, but there are way more rapists than kiddy diddlers in prison, even though we try harder to lock up kiddy diddlers than rapists.

So now we’re blaming women for when men rape women?
