78. by definition the fantasies
Mon Dec 3, 2012, 07:50 AM
Dec 2012

and rape are not on equal ground, not even close. In the role playing scenerio, the woman chooses the partner.

I am willing to bet that there is also a safe word she can use If she feels the partner is going to far. Those things don't happen in rape. The rape victims that I know didn't have a choice at all on who, when or where the rapist raped her. The rapist didn't even listen to them at all when they begged him not to and screamed NO.

Nice try to for the OP minimizing rape into women fantasize about it, so some rapes are legit! NOT. I wish he would do the right thing and self-delete the OP. We'll see how sensitive he is towards women being brutalized. We'll see if he has an Aha moment and realizes that OP's like this one are not even helpful in a serious discussion of rape. We'll see if is sensitive enough to realize that there are women on this board that have been raped and this type of title and OP are incredibly hurtful. Or we'll see if he is just another rape apologist and jerk.

I suspect the latter, but I would like to be proven wrong.


Ooh! I bet if you try really really hard you could come up with another OP with rape in the title. Luminous Animal Dec 2012 #1

I am still at a lose to how this would minimize a actual rape BrentWil Dec 2012 #88
Probably some wierd reflection of the commonality of rape in general. AtheistCrusader Dec 2012 #2
The answer to that is pretty simple Spider Jerusalem Dec 2012 #3
I would agree with that.....somewhat BrentWil Dec 2012 #11

Duh, yeah, what the heck? Is it a bunch of tubes? Bonobo Dec 2012 #20
Oh, you're one of those people who likes to make up your own definitions and express hostility LeftyMom Dec 2012 #22
I rest my case. Bonobo Dec 2012 #28
The point of the term is that there's a tendency among many men to do that to women, often without LeftyMom Dec 2012 #32
Yeah I get that Bonobo Dec 2012 #37
Its an observable phenomenon that is entirely unidirectional. Men do it to women. Frequently. LeftyMom Dec 2012 #39
That is entirely a subjective opinion. Bonobo Dec 2012 #42
Sure it's subjective. But it's also based on observed phenomena, not just thin air. nomorenomore08 Dec 2012 #45
I alerted, 3-3 to let it stand. Luminous Animal Dec 2012 #8
What was the rational for the alert? nT BrentWil Dec 2012 #14

Why? jberryhill Dec 2012 #7
I do not believe fantasy is an "aspect" of reality. Your premise is false. Fail. WheelWalker Dec 2012 #9
What is my premise? BrentWil Dec 2012 #13
Your premise, as stated by you, is that a sexual fantasy is an aspect of rape. Oxymoron. WheelWalker Dec 2012 #35
This is really transparent and gross. LeftyMom Dec 2012 #18

The very element of fantasy means there is a high level of consensuality. Thats not rape. phleshdef Dec 2012 #34
Exactly. Well put. WheelWalker Dec 2012 #38
Best analysis ever! I wish you would consider fashioning this into an OP and coalition_unwilling Dec 2012 #43
I would never diminish the rape of someone BrentWil Dec 2012 #52
So the point is that there's true rape and other forms? Democracyinkind Dec 2012 #69
"true" rape? TorchTheWitch Dec 2012 #74
The OP is rather upsetting LiberalLoner Dec 2012 #46

Why share any knowledge? BrentWil Dec 2012 #56
Why piss on an open discussion? Democracyinkind Dec 2012 #60
How is this "pissing on the discussion" BrentWil Dec 2012 #65
you know the answer. Democracyinkind Dec 2012 #67
It's still beyond me how presenting something is "taking a piss" on something NT BrentWil Dec 2012 #71
Timing, context, sensitivity. Democracyinkind Dec 2012 #72
Lots of threads on rape BrentWil Dec 2012 #80
The OP is disgusting Democracyinkind Dec 2012 #47
that women secretly want to be actually raped is exactly the point TorchTheWitch Dec 2012 #50
No it isn't. The point is, some women(many) have sexual fantasies that involve rape.... BrentWil Dec 2012 #54
