Re: How do I tell the Difference?
Nah, bro that's still rape as far as I and the law are concerned. "Surprise sex" is still rape, regardless of if the rapee enjoys it. The fact of the matter is that no consent was given, and there's still the matter of the perpetrator not knowing if the rapee would like it or not. See, this is where intent comes into it.
Rape, as I have been told, is about power and taking pleasure. Not giving it. The perpetrator is still a rapist, one who most likely doesn't care if their rape is enjoyed. So, they're a bad person and should be locked up. Which is my opinion, that I hold very strongly.
Mental aberration just means they are wired differently not that they are not thinking rationally, ADHD is a mental aberration. Either way the point I was making was not that they are acting rationally, but that their morality is different than yours or mine. Not less valid, just different. Potentially different in such a manner that rape is not a bad thing to them. Basically I posit that their morality is as real to them as yours is to you, and both are equally non-objective. Therefore equally valid opinions.
Now, I would like to wash my hands of this whole thing. Researching this has probably put me on some sort of watch list already.
