Tenured University of Toronto professor Jordan Peterson seems to be suggesting that sexual assault is ok if you’re married or that its not sexual assault if you rape your wife because ‘traditional christian values’. And if he going with the traditional marriage instills morals, that still doesn’t stop sexual predators from existing, because many of them are married.
What a mess.
“A disturbing fact continues to surface in sex abuse research. The first best predictor of abuse is alcohol or drug addiction in the father. But the second best predictor is conservative religiosity, accompanied by parental belief in traditional male-female roles. This means that if you want to know which children are most likely to be sexually abused by their father, the second most significant clue is whether or not the parents belong to a conservative religious group with traditional role beliefs and rigid sexual attitudes.” – (Brown and Bohn, 1989; Finkelhor, 1986; Fortune, 1983; Goldstein et al, 1973; Van Leeuwen, 1990), in “Sexual Abuse in Christian Homes and Churches”, by Carolyn Holderread Heggen, Herald Press, Scotdale, PA, 1993 p. 73
