In this one I STRONGLY agree with dlish
I do not care if the person forced enjoyed it, if they lubricated or orgasmed - the fact is that the act itself was FORCED
If it was consensual sex then it is not forced.
Yes, it is confusing for a victim to enjoy rape and if you do then that adds a whole new level of guilt on top of what I talked about earlier. I was lucky enough not to have to deal with that hence why I didn't discuss it in my last post.
I don't however think that the attacker cares if the victim enjoys it or not - to me rape is about power, not sex, and therefore making your victim orgasm just gives the rapist more power leading to more enjoyment for them. To me that article sounds like it is trying to justify a rapists enjoyment of the power he / she holds over the victim by saying that they think their victim is receiving pleasure. Like as long as they get an orgasm out of the other person it's consensual.
Then again I also acknowledge that in regards to this I am probably a bit unreasonable, heck in regards to this I am probably a bit homicidal.
To follow on from MSD rape trials are awful, I didn't have to deal with alot of it due to the severity of my injuries but sitting in that court room, just being in the same room as those people was enough to have me shaking and on top of that was their lawyer trying to make out that I was drunk or high and didn't understand what was going on properly. He even insisted I have a blood test taken to check for drugs, yet another invasion of my person then. I think I hate the man defending them almost as much as I hate the people who hurt me.
