Abuse, Rape and Peer Pressure are two interactive cycles. Both normally begin with the person having gone through very difficult lives and have been abused, neglected or pressured themselves. And after a while they feel the subconscious instinct to take back what was taken from them, gain control over others and themselves, or are just wanting to be accepted (depending on the situation). The victim becomes the purpotrater if this cycle is not interrupted.
one important thing to remember is that these things actually happen more often for men than women, but is less reported. and even more than that, is that the victims and purpotraters are of the same sex. keep this in mind.
