Why is rape a crime?

I thought women wanted to be equal to men in every conceivable way, i.e. the sharing of a front lines bunker in combat and equal pay etc. Women who complain that they've been raped are in essence telling society that they do not enjoy the sex act nearly as much as men, and are in fact unable to enjoy an orgasm. Look, I agree with women that they should seek social justice in any way they can, so it might behoove women who might have been a little shy and insecure about their sexual encounters of the past, to let go of those inhibitions to the point of enjoying the excitement of being raped by a complete stranger. I'm talking about the single women out there that may be unhappy with the sex of their current partner, who would have nothing to lose by wearing a short mini skirt out on the town at night--prowling for that one-night-encounter for raw sex from a virtual unknown sex fiend. Women telling us that the rape act was a horrible experience makes we men think that we're merely being taken advantage of for our handi-man skills and for our money--none of which pertains to the lovely sex act which should be paramount in any man/woman relationship.

 

Rape? Is this just insane or what....

Plus I always enjoyed the wooing and challenge. Fun games when in my twenties. Ladies have wonderful secrets given the mood.

No sense in rape unless you are into role playing.

 

Funny that you stereotype a woman walking around late at night in a mini skirt and being sexually assaulted by some unknown assailant. Most women are raped by someone they actually know and it has nothing to do with how they are dressed.

Just curious but do you say the same thing to little girls who have been raped by a family member or other unknown assailant?

"Sorry sweetie but that's just the equality that you're mother and her foremothers wanted!"

 

If that is the case that most rapes are from men the woman knows--then what is the problem? Are you saying that these raped women should be discriminate in who they have sex with? Wouldn't or shouldn't there be more excitement for the woman to get sexually MAN-handled by a complete stranger? I could only be so lucky to have had a strange woman rape me when I was least expecting it, but I would have a problem if said woman was a Hillary look-alike or weighed a half ton.

No, if you were to refer back to the OP, I said single mothers.

What are you talking about here? What equality?

 

What the (*)(*)(*)(*) is this bull(*)(*)(*)(*)? Please tell me this is some kind of sick joke thread.

I consider sex and rape completely different. When one is forced weither you are a guy or girl (and there has been in the news of a woman who raped a guy)

I agree some women show no moral with wearing mini skirts and not covering up some but that dosnt mean they are asking to be raped nor is it a "Come and get me" for a guy to attack.

 

Rape is sex that is unwanted and forced upon a person, I'm actually very surprised you don't know this. Nobody wants to be raped. (And do not confuse real rape with fantasy/role play rape).

First sentence of your thread.

 

Stop feeding the troll.

 

I'm well aware of the definition of rape, but you have missed the point here. Whether the sex act was forced or not on the woman is besides the point; my attempt here is to show how single women or feminazis if you will can live up to their equal rights aspirations by not only taking the rape act as a pleasurable act of human nature between a man and a woman, but to relax and accept the physical portion of the act as a remedy for all that pent up anger and emotional baggage that is bound to engulf single women in this fast and furious society.

 

Libhater, what a gem!

So your saying you have no problem being raped, that you would find another man or a woman violating you to be pleasurable?

 

It's been obvious for quite a while that some of you hardcore Reps despise women for some reason, but this takes it to a new level.

 

Not quite. Since this is a womens' rights section, I was addressing their rights by referring to single women getting some sex that otherwise could have been sorely missing in their stress filled lives. Personally, I would prefer for a woman to 'rape' me, however, I can understand how a liberal man might find enjoyment in getting raped by another man. You might say...to each his own. So again, if a woman gets to share her equal rights with a man who has sex with her, and at the same time gets to release any and all pent up anger and stress in the process, how can that possibly be a crime? I would think that single women should be advocates for the rape act.

 

So no qualms about Janet Reno or Rosie O'Donnell violating any of your orifices? You are a man amongst men in that dept., I doubt most would be able to console themselves after such an encounter.

Such a gentlemen with your concerns for women. Missing out on getting raped, which I guess is what you call your sexual encounters, ehh I think most of us will take a pass on that one without regrets.

 

Serious question. Do you know that "rape" and "consensual sexual intercourse" aren't the same thing?

 

I don't do well with technicalities, so I'll avoid answering your question by giving you my thoughts on the sex act. There are many couples that join 'swingers' clubs where the wives or girlfriends inter-change partners with complete strangers in order to engage in the big nasty sex act, where chances are the sex could get rather rough, and in fact many of these women insist on it being rough. Then there is a whole nuther faction of sex perverts (if you will, not me of course) who engage in bondage and sex torture in order to get their jollies. Even these so-called normal looking couples on the outside--could very well be wild sex maniacs behind closed doors---you just don't know for sure, now do you. So what I'm saying here is that there are probably a higher percentage of women who enjoy the rough and exciting sex between their partners and or with strangers then are of the virtuous celibate types who undoubtedly wear veils to cover their face.

So the word 'rape' means absolutely nothing to me. To me, rapists and racists have no meaning...its all subjective.

 

Seriously only women can be raped? Dont take your personal sexual frustrations out on the internet!

 

Where was it even hinted that only women can get raped? C-mon pal, get with the program. The only people I see being sexually frustrated are those who complain about it, i.e. the women who got raped.

 

He's just having a rapist's wet dream.....


(funny, OP is talking about OTHER people's sexual frustrations!!! LOLOLOL....

 

Funny you mentioned 'wet dream'. There was this guy out in the St Louis area who broke into some 17 single women's homes and did what you guys would call...'rape' these women, but he didn't 'rape' them in the conventional manner. What he did was to be as kind and courteous to these women as was humanly possible while he gave them all an oral wet treat. Now I don't know for sure, but I'll take a guess that most of these women hadn't received such a sexual treat as what this guy so willingly offered to those lonely and frustrated women. Other than the crime of breaking and entering, can you honestly say this guy was guilty of anything else? I also can't be sure, but again, I 'm guessing that most of these women had a smile on their faces while they were being 'raped'.

 

Yeah, he's guilty of molesting them without their consent. He put his hands, fingers, tongue and other parts of himself on them and it was unwanted and a violation of their right to bodily integrity. HE broke into their homes and destroyed any sense of security and safety they might have had the moment he laid his hands on them and forced parts of himself upon their bodies, upon their most personal and private of parts.

What if a woman related to you, your daughter, your mother, your aunt, your sister, your niece, any of these people had been molested by this man? Would you still be singing the same tune here? Saying that it was A-Ok just because they were single? Do you even understand the emotional trauma being violated like this by someone does to a person? It's sick and wrong and the fact that you are arguing that it should be seen as ok is extremely disturbing.

Do you care that these women are religious, maybe a virgin and don't want to have sex until they are married? Do you care that they have moral standards and don't want to sleep with anyone they are not yet in a real relationship with? Do you care that they are already in a relationship or married when they are raped? Do you care about their age? (My mother was raped at 14 and was a virgin). Do you care they screamed "NO! GET THE (*)(*)(*)(*) OFF OF ME!" while they were being raped? Do these things matter to you or do you just care that men and even some women should have the right to lay their hands on other people and penetrate their orifices without their permission?

 

At first glance I thought your signature said..'I am a Librarian' which would have given me a clearer insight to where you're coming from.

Lets get back to the original question....why is rape a crime? I saw an episode on Forensic Files or Cold Case Files where that man who gave oral pleasure to 17 women received a life sentence in prison. I've already said that he should be tried for unlawful breaking and entering, but that he shouldn't be tried for forcible rape or for any kind of rape for that matter.

Bill Clinton didn't receive one day in jail for taking advantage of a dim-witted female by having her give him blowjobs. Now keeping just the sex act in mind---do you think that the guy who gave pleasurable oral sex to 17 women should get life behind bars? Granted, the convicted oralist should have called each woman beforehand and told them to unlock their doors, to set their alarm clocks for 3am in the morning, freshen up a bit, and be prepared to have the most pleasurable oral sex of their lives. I doubt that if he did call them first that there would be any willing takers. Remember, this guy got a life sentence and he didn't threaten any of these women. Yes, in the technical sense of the law---this guy was wrong, but doing life for having oral sex seems a bit much to me, would you agree? His act wasn't even considered to be intercourse, so no chance of the woman becoming pregnant or having some medical issue from a forced rape.

 

rape noun
Definition of RAPE

1
: an act or instance of robbing or despoiling or carrying away a person by force
2
: unlawful sexual activity and usually sexual intercourse carried out forcibly or under threat of injury against the will usually of a female or with a person who is beneath a certain age or incapable of valid consent — compare sexual assault, statutory rape

That is why it is illegal, because it is done without the other person's consent.

Yes he should as he forced parts of his body onto other people's bodies when they did not want it. They may have even told him no and to stop and he did not.

You are obviously having a hard time seeing the difference between consensual sex and non consensual sex (aka rape).

Absolutely.

It doesn't matter, he violated their bodies without their permission and when a stranger touches you in such a personal way like that, trust me, it is not pleasurable.

 

The only problem with rape laws is that in most states the law is not gender neutral. If a man is raped in prison either by inmates or prison guards he cannot sue for being raped. The crime goes unpunished. Similarly, all too often we see cases of female teachers sexually abusing young boys and only being charged with simple assault rather than rape which would get her a much longer prison sentence.

Crime is crime and needs to be punished on a uniform basis. This is the best deterrent there is.

 

You never did give full details on this criminal and this case. Why not post a link to an article about it or a name so that I may research further into it?

Nobody ever said rape was not hard to prove and yes it does often come down to a he said she said case.

I dunno, did they consent to the sex or did they claim rape afterwards and was there a trial involved? You keep bringing up Bill Clinton and his hanky panky but as far as I understand it everything he did with those women was consensual from both parties involved.

Did he? I don't know anything about the case. Can you link it for me?

Again I don't know the full details about the cases. You continue to mention them but refuse to post any articles or other facts about them.
