Further evidence for women to be adapted to rape is their much less specific genital arousal in response to visual stimuli. While men primarily only exhibit penile arousal in response to [[neoteny|neotenous]], post-pubertal females,<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#It_is_normal_for_healthy_men_to_find_pubescent_.26_prepubescent_females_sexually_arousing</ref>, women's vaginal arousal can even be elicited by the sight of animal sex. This unspecific sensitivity might protect them from skin tears and infection during rape.<ref>https://doi.org/10.1007/s10508-008-9339-8</ref> | Further evidence for women to be adapted to rape is their much less specific genital arousal in response to visual stimuli.

Rape should be distinguished from coercion which has a related, but distinct biological purpose. While rape is predominantly a fast [[life history]] strategy that involves very little investment into the offspring, coercion can be even regarded as a slow life history trait. For example, provided women lose their sex drive much sooner in a [[relationship]],<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Women_rapidly_lose_interest_in_sex_once_in_a_stable_relationship_or_living_with_a_man</ref> by forcing women do remain in a marriage, the offspring is better cared for than it being raised by [[single mom]]s. Due to women's [[sex drive|coyness]], lower [[sex drive]] and unwillingness to initiate sexual acts, some amount of coercion may often be necessary for relationships, sex and reproduction to take place at all, even in a slow life history setting.<ref name="smuts1992"></ref> | Rape should be distinguished from ''sexual coercion'' which has a related, but distinct biological purpose.
