Rape scenes in movies

The mudge boy. It was always confusing to me I felt like if he asked he would have let him.

I guess I can see how some guys not myself if it were a guy they liked that just took it and didn't ask and gave it you good with zero romance aspect to it just pound it out sex then I guess I see how you can be cool with it. That's what it seemed like in the movie initially he was hurt but all in all its what he wanted so he accepted it I guess. Idk. Some things are just too complex for my mind lol.

I get that, but I suppose I have too much interest in self-preservation and too much empathy for people being brutalized for my arousal to follow that far. The scene from Mysterious Skin is a perfect example. If the predator hadn't simply been a thug but instead lusty and seductive and had pinned JGL down and had his way with him and then letting him go relatively unharmed (or at least minimally so), that probably would have been great for me. But... as it was there was no passion to the scene; the thug was cold, animalistic, quite brutal, and sociopathic really, and JGL ended up knocked unconscious and bleeding all over the floor. Nothing sexy about that to me.

The depiction of violent fucking combined with the other brutality definitely aroused me more than a technical consent violation would have done. On the other hand, I did find it less exciting and more disturbing in the context of the rest of the film than when I watched the scene in isolation.
