I don't want a row with an angry person... I want to discuss, and understand. So no, it's not good enough.
I'm not committing the crime, I want to form a realistic opinion of a heinous crime...
Maybe I'm confused about something or missing something important. I'm not an angry person. I am curious though, do you honestly think a woman who has been raped is going to explain to you (a stranger) how it feels to be raped on a public thread over the internet? Or am I confused? I get confused sometimes.

Betrayal is not scary though ... you can be betrayed in business or in sport.. that doesn't contribute much at all to rape does it?

I don't accept that, sorry!
Are you saying you refuse to accept people's boundaries on this forum?

The boundary, lag, is where one party refuses consent. You're not asking about the grey area of what might constitute consent, you're asking about scenarios where consent is clearly not given. Hence my criticism.

It can be and it does very much.

Now you're putting words in my mouth... I don't see why pushing peoples' understanding or thoughts is wrong... I'm asking questions, not stating an outlandish stance !

Your stance does seem outlandish

You're asking for opinions on how it feels to be raped and asking for them to be from women only....if you're not requesting an actual answer from someone who has been raped, then how can you say "awful" isn't a good enough answer?

I apologize. I was only asking is that what you are saying, or if not then will you please explain what you meant.

Of course betrayal is scary. When someone you trust or depend upon suddenly turns the table and becomes an enemy, it's scary.
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.
