Such a phrase which can rightly be read by anyone as a claim that the reader, himself, is a potential rapist is intentionally offensive and meant to incite a response.

This is obvious by the audience it is said to. If, as you claim, it is meant to be aimed at women in order to protect them from danger, it would be said only to women.

The fact is that such a warning is obvious and doesn't need to be said. I think all women know already that such potential for danger exists.

No, the point of the statement is to incite, to create flame so that it can be opposed and thus magnify the voices of one side --aka to create an opposing force where none really exists so that it can be used as a launching pad to speak more loudly.

I am sorry that you do not see the point of the OP, but I think I have explained it well enough.

Again, I am not saying that the content of that example is so wrong, but that the delivery is intended to produce a reaction which then is used as fuel to feed one side and create an enemy where none exists. One can oppose such inflammatory rhetoric and still not be "the opposition".
