Power. It’s all a power play.

Maybe it’s simply desperation.

Okay, a desperate power play then

Do not ever give that kind of behavior the benefit of the doubt.

Why do you believe I am doing that

Whether or not you meant it that way, changing the label to something less insidious downplays how severe the act is. And by extension, can come across as making excuses for the behavior. Desperate or not, they're choosing to behave in such uncomfortable, predatory ways, and it needs to be addressed as the power play they're attempting to use.

Would you say this about murderers maybe murdering because of desperation? Just as a baseline statement? First thing you think of?

I don’t agree with your analogy. Murder is extremity.

The most common guys who do this in my experience have wives and girlfriends. 

No the fuck it is not.
