This whole thing is in dealing with a gray area. I don't want to speak in absolutes when we're not talking about absolutes.

While you have nothing to prove to me, I'm just curious to know where your information comes from. It helps me frame my discussion a little better.

Well it is common knowledge that women can become aroused while being raped. It's documented. It's established. I'm sure if one googles it, once through the loads of innapropriate links, one can find plenty.
Some of it is from schooling. In getting my degree in psychology some of my time was in dealing with human sexuality and some of it was spent on rape.
A better way to establish this would be to talk to a rape counselor. I strongly suspect they could address this better than I. I don't know if a majority of women become aroused when raped. Frankly, I don't feel particularly comfortable thinking about it.
Maybe we should use facts:
Fact #1: Men can become hard without wanting to.
Fact #2: No WMDs were found in Iraq (this finds it s way onto all my fact lists out of habit)
Fact #3: Women can have very strong sexual feelings about a man. Many do.
Based on #1 and 3, it's not outside the realm of possibility that a woman can make a man have sex with her without his consent.
