Thank you for your kindness and thoughtful words, and no, I didn't take offense. I just wanted to underscore the necessity of clear communication, even if it's not verbal. The few times I've organized a men's group, one of the clear rules I've laid out in advance and enforced is the No means No.@RobLivesInTexas
I was going to send this to you in a private message but honestly it deserves to be seen by all, and especially those who have been sexually abused in the past like you have.
Regarding that, I never once gave it a thought that people who have endured what you have; and thus might have taken offense to my statements. I never meant any disrespect to ANYONE who endured that despicable violation. I even have ideas on how that forever should be dealt with that cannot be typed out here but let's just say it has to do with brutal vigilante justice.
I am fortunate/misfortunate myself that I have never been subjected to that but was subjected to severe physical child abuse. Having said that, being in foster care for much of my childhood I know many of my foster-siblings had to deal with such nonsense, and I am sorry an adult felt they had a right to do that to you, and others. Obvious they DON'T!
I certainly should have reconsidered the affect my wording might have on those subjected to abuse. I do apologize for my poor choice of words. Please forgive me for that blatant oversight and be assured I will keep it in mind for further replies.
Again, my apologies.
As I explained above, consent isn't always necessarily verbal. But a decent person will always take the stance of, if in doubt, don't do it. Otherwise, you're on the edge of becoming a monster like those who took advantage of me.
There is also the consideration of relative power and vulnerability. Someone mentioned above that true rape isn't about sex. It's about asserting power through sex. I wonder if people's "rape fantasies" may sometimes be more about submission to power more that hot sex.
My going along with a hot masseur who was making my naked body feel awfully good as he pushed beyond the professional boundaries, that was me getting horny and giving in to my last, not to his domination. I could have stopped it at any moment, although I would have had major blue balls. But I read about in some other folks' rape fantasies horrify me if they had any possibility of becoming true.
