And the grey area for me is, if the accepted sexual partners forces sex on the women, it is a crime of greed and disrespect. Whereas, if a man who is not assigned to be the sexual partner forces sex, that is a completely different violation of the lady's personal space and everything thereafter...during the sexual act.
For me, they are so very different.
Any women care to comment?
Sure, one is violence, the other is violence plus a breach of trust. If that's too glib, I'm sorry. But force is force. And violation is violation.
I do have some sympathy for the usual partner who misreads the signs. We do have a duty communicate our lack of interest.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
