more of a cultural/societal ill than a morality one

not comparable to the true predators

still morally problematic although i'm a firm believer in moral relativity

but it's akin to someone who was in an abusive relationship (as the abuser) who was never in another one after said relationship ended

yes, that person is still a woman beater but if it never becomes a pattern...it can almost be chalked up to environmental factors rather than internal predatory behaviors

i think there is a distinct difference there...society fails us all in a few ways and our behaviors will reflect it in some effed up ways but if you internalize those problems to a point...you become more than an environmental "product"

lack of a lasting pattern
and it being the 70s
