So how rape happy was good ol' Temüjin?
There's plenty of stories of his soldiers committing war rape. But hardly anything on Mr. Khan having rapey hands (at least so few that I can find). I know that when they conquered a village or tribe, he would have most (if not all) the men killed, leaving him to be virtually the only partner available for sexy-times. Obviously they submitted willingly because of this. Yet I keep wondering if he ever forced himself onto some of the women. I'm not finding much to suggest whether this happened or not. But it does certainly fit with his character. And the idea that not one of them put up a fight seems implausible.

There's some circumstantial evidence that even his sons weren't actually his. It's possible that "something" might have happen to him while he was captured.

Everyone raped the losers wifes, that was the main part of fighting a war, why risk your life and fighting in the mud against people with pointy sticks with your own pointy stick and possibly die a slow and painfull death if you can't fuck the losers wife and daughter if you win?
I don't think rape existed as a concept back then as it does today.

he brutally murdered the families of thousands of women and proceeded to take them as wives
how many women do you know that would willingly fuck the murderer of their sons/husbands
