Are most Latin Americans basically rape prodcuts?

[Sky earth]

This is not a troll question but a serious question. Are most Latin Americans rape products between Spanish/Portuguese conquerers and Amerindian/Black woman? I mean I read that many Aztec woman were raped during the conquest of the Aztec empire. It also seems that most Latinos carry the Spanish haplogroup R1b and on their maternal side they are mainly Amerindians.

Sort of. I could guess we are about 20% descendants of rape, 40% descendants of unmarried couples and 40% of actual marriages. But that's a business of our ancestors, not ours. And what you say about the sex imballance on our genetic makeup is correct. We are mainly male-European and female-Indigenous, with another groups as well in minor scale.

How do you calculate such a thing.

It equalls as if I said a big percentage of the turks are the result of the Mongol raping their women....

Yes, I descend from a long line of uncontested rapists. My dad, Bardock the Rapist, my grandfather, Voltok the Rapist, my greatgrandfather, Pancho the Rapist, etc... Until eons far behind. We know no such thing as marriage here, unlike in Turkey (even if it means marrying off little kids). All we do is rape each other. How did you think I got that many girls?

[Ars Moriendi]

The prevalence of sexual violence in human groups has been so recurrent historically that it's hard for anyone to argue to not have an ancestor being product of rape.
Even offspring of whores is very important historically. Worth remembering while trying to assess any sort of assumed birthright or innate superiority.

Just a guess. I also have information of early colonial Chile, for example, like the wills, that shows many Spaniards marry native women, and gave them the goods when they died in battle. So, we know there were abuses but also marriages. We also know the Spanish settler usually have a formal wife (either native or European, but mostly native) but several lovers who were mainly native. That's why our genetic makeup show such imbalance. The genocide againt Indians was addressed mainly on males.

Actually, during the conquest, most European women in America were whores.

Same in Canada and Australia.
