Does the person who wrote this think old women generally don’t get raped?
Or that the rape of an old woman is somehow worse than that of a young one?
“Russian troops raped women while their families were forced to listen” gets the same story across, sensationalising victims’ details for clicks is gross.
It reinforces that the rapes are done for the terror factor of victims beyond those that are raped and not because the soldiers are horny or whatever other stupid excuse.
I think almost any crime against the elderly or children is generally viewed as worse, with good reason. They’re generally more helpless and less able to fight back/run away.
I also find that odd. It makes it almost seem as if raping elderly women is something that requires extra mention. So that nobody assumes that we are talking about the “normal”, “understandable” rape of younger women. It’s seriously fucked up.
How the fuck is their age relevant?
