90. "equating rape with sex"
To equate rape with sex is unfounded.

To assert that rape has nothing to do with sex may be unfounded as well. I haven't seen any evidence to support that extreme claim.

There's some undue conflation and confusion about the "sexiness" of a rape victim, the motivation of a rapist, and the definition of sex. Wouldn't discussion be better served by acknowledging that those are 3 distinct issues?
