It's rarely just one or the other. Sex is involved in that sexual assaults usually involve the gender the attacker prefers, and usually involve the age range the attacker prefers. Power is involved in that these people actively prefer to commit assaults rather than finding a willing partner.

It's so disturbing. You try to figure it out, but there's not really a way to understand it I don't think. Unless you're broken like he is, it's just not going to make sense. For sure there's not a big separation between any other part of life and power, the difference is in what kind of power it is. I think for a normal person, er, assuming I have any idea what that might be, heh, it's a very powerful thing to have sex with a willing partner. Someone said it's the ultimate affirmation right? That's a feeling of power, but the power is in the willingness of the other person.

But it seems like for this guy, assuming that he did these things, he wanted power to control them, to take from them something that they might have even given willingly. Willing wasn't enough, he wanted to TAKE, which is actually violent really I think.

It's really hosed up. I can understand so many crimes. I can understand killing someone because you're angry, or because you're paranoid, or because their continued existence is intolerable to you. That's just straight up violent and I can completely understand it almost every time.

This kind of deviant violence, where some normal seeming drive or impulse is completely perverted and turned into something horrible and ugly, I just can't get a handle on. Then it's even more unbelievable because the guy is ON TELEVISION. I mean, you're not creeping off into the night, like appearing in a lovely sketch, they're just like 'yeah it was Darren Sharper'. So not only are you completely unhinged, you're also incredibly loving dumb.

Makes you think there must actually be a lot more of them. You don't just one day after retirement decide to start drugging and raping women. Unless you have....a worsening brain injury or something.

CTE is unambiguously linked with disinhibition with regard to aggression and violence. Now CTE doesn't make anyone do anything, and there's no indication that I know of that Sharper has it in the first place, but the bare possibility of some connection can't be dismissed out of hand.

Sure we can, but probably shouldn't because we are a bunch of losers on the interenet, speculate on whether or not CTE may have somehow contributed to him raping women. But this

seems to imply that Larch thinks the options are that Sharper has raped women before and just wasn't caught, or that the brain injury caused it. The latter seems pretty ridiculous to me, especially considering the former is almost positively true.

Unless Sharper does the needful within the short-term without damaging his head, the connection between his behavior and his brain is only fruitful for the worst sort of sensationalism.

That's true. Not a lot of point in speculating about it, since there's not much chance of getting actual data any time soon. In any case most people who do have CTE somehow manage not to commit violent felonies.

Disinhibition means doing and saying random poo poo that your internal filter would otherwise suppress. If the desire and execution to rape someone was a sign of CTE, this would be the first time it was reported and would completely change the thought process and research on the disease.


In other words, Darren Sharper is a rapist who may have CTE, but there is no way CTE contributed to his desire to rape women. In fact, he probably has always been involved in this type of behavior and only now just got caught. At least statistically that is the most likely outcome.


Not every weird or deplorable thing is associated with CTE people. Even in NFL ranks, CTE is more rare than we likely think it is.

I was talking with a friend regarding this story. We got onto the topic of reporting rape and my friend was trying to tell me that he thinks ~20% of rapes are faked. Also, it's the victim's fault for not reporting rape as soon as it occurs (or soon after) :negative:

I don't know about morphine's use in a case like this but as a football player with loads of typical injuries and pain I wouldn't be all that surprised if he simply has a pharmaceutical connection somewhere. I know you can get at least some basic forms of it with a prescription.

Not CTE in particular, in fact there are only a handful of authorities on it since its such a new thing. I do however consider myself an authority on head trauma based on my two years as a senior research associate in a major trauma center and the 24 publications on the subject.

Larch (although shame on me for giving him credibility) and a few others have been implying exactly as much in this thread.

quote:

By statistically I meant its far more likely that Sharper is just a plain old run of the mill rapist than a rapist that was created by head trauma, CTE or otherwise.

quote:

What's your source for this claim too

I have no source for this, because such a source does not exist. We do not know the rate of CTE in NFL players, nor do we have any reliable detection methods for it other than posthumous methods. However, almost anytime an NFL player or even ex-NFL player is involved in a crime, some type of violence, the media and even some TFF posters immediately jump to CTE as the cause of said events. Hell, the mods had to squash CTE talk after the Belcher incident because people were teeing off on it just like they did with "fencing response". Its going to be years until we are able to confirm our current suspicions about CTE, its pathophysiology, course, and treatment.

I took his post to mean that there's a chance he decided to do it because of brain trauma, not that it gave him the idea but that he decided to act on the idea. You know, the way CTE seems to have affected the behavior of several other athletes, made them moodier, angrier, more prone to violence and outbursts. John Mackey refused to brush his teeth until his wife faked a letter from Paul Tagliabue. Their actions kind of come out of nowhere and exaggerate their impulses.

OK, and what have those methods shown us? What's that percentage of brains studied that have shown CTE?
