The severity with which rape is socially ostracized is thus likely disproportional to the overall harm caused by rape, especially since rape is rare and is committed by a [[apex fallacy|tiny subset of men]], and thus it is mostly a moral panic. All of this is complicated by the fact that most women have [[#Rape_fantasies|rape fantasies]] and appear to sometimes provoke it. The push to pathologize hebephilia, in particular, has been suggested to be driven by a "punitive era of moral panic", as claimed by forensic psychologist Karen Franklin, "a textbook example of subjective values masquerading as science" (though referring to the sexual interest, not rape).<ref>https://www.ipce.info/library/journal-article/public-policy-implications-hebephilia-response-blanchard-et-al-2008</ref> | The severity with which rape is socially ostracized is thus likely disproportional to the overall harm caused by rape, especially since rape is rare and is committed by a [[apex fallacy|tiny subset of men]], and thus it is mostly a moral panic.
