I'm sorry, I detected a harshness in your response that I didn't think was fair.
Thank you, it's okay. It's not my intention to flame or be rude, thanks for letting me know, I'll keep that in mind while writing my replies.
Before I give my thoughts, I wanted to say, Think Kink, I thought it was really sweet of you to make a comment when you saw a response to someone else that could be percieved as unfair. And its great that Nala and you both had the maturity to resolve the miscommunication constructively, and that Nala never intended to flame! I do find a lot of the comments on lpsg to be meanspirited so its pleasing to see such maturity from you both.
My thoughts are like this: there are two aspects to rape scenario:
1. The man feels overwhelming lust to "take" the woman
2. The woman does not consent to this act
I suspect that a lot of women find the first component a turn-on. They like the idea that a man is so overwhelmed by lust for them that he can't hold himself back. They also like the idea of a man having his way with them.
However, virtually all women find the second component distressing.
Hence, the appeal of the "rape fantasy" is that it allows them to entertain the first component while the second component becomes irrelvant.
p.s. I think there may be an exception if women feel that consenting to sex is "wrong", in which case even the second component is appealing because it gives them an excuse to enjoy sex.
Just my thoughts - Feedback welcome - Anyone agree or disagree?
