Husband comes home from work to find that his wife has not prepared dinner, leading him to abuse her (domestic violence). Power rape: exert control over women and men, less violence used, e. g. Having sex with someone to get a hired. Sadistic rape: abusive and degrading, involves ritual and torture, e. g. Two women raped a man and then degraded him once he could no longer be stimulated. Gang rape: peer pressure, ring leaders usually encourage the members of the gang to have sex with someone. The logic behind this is that if everyone does it, they cannot all be charged since it will be the word of one person (the victim) against the word of multiple people (the gang). Stranger rape: more violent, more predominant in official statistics, more likely to involve weapons.
