I can agree with the idea that it was reckless of the American crew to let a pretty blond walk into a crowd like this without adequate protection. Not because the men are “sex-starved”, but because they belong to one of the cultures where respect for women is simply not a virtue.
If desperation for sex is the main cause of acts like this, then men from India and East Asia should be walking around gang-raping everything that moves, given that they are usually the least successful group with women, at least in North America. Yet they are actually the least represented among rapists.
There is a major difference between individual cases of rape and something like this where groups of men assault a woman in public. The former points to the presence of deviants and sociopaths that can be found in any society, but the latter indicates a cultural problem. In America, New York’s St.Patrick’s Day parade is famous for the free flowing alcohol and drunken behavior. But as far as crime goes, a few drunken fist fights is usually the most you have to worry about. By contrast, a few years back in the Puerto Rican Day parade in the same city under the same rules, scores of women were sexually assaulted in broad daylight. In some cases, men were held back and forced to watch as their wives and girlfriends were groped or raped in front of them. And I can assure you, Puerto Rican culture does not deprive men from sex!
At the end of the day, the variable is not the level of sex the men get, but the degree of respect they are taught to have for women.
