"I think that the enormous emphasis on violence and sex, and in particular violent sex, may not make rapists of us all, but it predisposes us to accept a kind of world in which these things happen"

About this Quote

Alexander Walker's quote suggests that the frequency of violence and sexual violence in media and popular culture can have an unfavorable effect on society. He thinks that while it may not turn everyone into rapists, it can create an environment in which these acts are most likely to happen. He is recommending that by normalizing violence and sexual violence in our culture, we are creating an environment in which these acts are more likely to be accepted and even encouraged. This can cause a society in which these acts are more common and more accepted, which can lead to a boost in the number of people committing these acts. Walker's quote is a caution that we must understand the prospective repercussions of our culture's emphasis on violence and sex, which we need to take actions to guarantee that these acts are not stabilized.
