War is to a degree more consensual. BDSM scores very highly in taboo surveys. I don't think the author would say all men love executing POWs or anything like that.
Also, not to support that view, but the amount of sexual violence that has historically accompanied war is startling. There's obviously something to it.

- w_t_payne 8y agoI don't know about consent -- I don't see much consent going on in conflict ... but there is definitely a lot of truth in the link between sexual violence and conflict. Rape has been used as an instrument of war for all of recorded history - as a demonstration of domination; as a means of punishment and repression - and also - just because the men can. Combating the use of rape and sexual violence in conflict is something that we are trying very hard to make progress on ... but it is a very difficult (maybe even impossible) task; human nature being what it is.
