A Natural History of Rape
''A Natural History of Rape: Biological Bases of Sexual Coercion'' is a 2000 book about rape by biologist Randy Thornhill and anthropologist Craig T. Palmer. Thornhill and Palmer propose that rape should be understood through evolutionary psychology,〔 and criticize the argument, popularized by Susan Brownmiller in ''Against Our Will'', that rape is not sexually motivated.〔Thornhill, Randy & Palmer, Craig T. ''A Natural History of Rape: Biological Bases of Sexual Coercion''. The MIT Press, 2000, pp. 126, 133-135, 138-139.〕 They argue that the capacity for rape is either an adaptation or a byproduct of adaptative traits such as sexual desire and aggressiveness.
==Summary==
Thornhill and Palmer suggest that theory and research in evolutionary biology and evolutionary psychology can help to elucidate the ultimate (evolutionary) causes (as opposed to primarily proximate causes) of rape by males in different species, including humans.〔 They argue that the capacity for rape is either an adaptation, or, a byproduct of adaptative traits such as sexual desire and aggressiveness that have evolved for reasons that have no direct connection with the benefits or costs of rape.〔
The authors criticize Susan Brownmiller's book ''Against Our Will'', which popularized the view that rape is an expression of male domination that is not sexually motivated. They criticize arguments that rape is not sexually motivated on several grounds.〔 In their view, concluding that rape must be motivated by the desire to commit acts of violence is as illogical as concluding that men who pay prostitutes for sex are motivated by charity.〔
