The idea that genocide could be accomplished by the mass rape of the women of the enemy’s ethnic group derives from a patriarchal definition of ethnicity.

A patriarchal definition of ethnicity results in the idea that raping women and making them pregnant will contribute to the genocide of the conquered people.

A patriarchal definition of ethnicity results in the idea that raping women and making them pregnant will contribute to the genocide of the conquered people (Turpin 326).

The rape of women in wartime, apart from the obvious desire for sex and power on the part of the conquering soldiers, may also, consciously or unconsciously, serve as a means of disrupting the society of the conquered people. Turpin argues that a “patriarchal definition of ethnicity” in which a child seen to inherit his ethnicity from his father, results in the notion that a woman becoming pregnant from a rape will give birth to a child that belongs to the new regime (326).
