@hawkeye10,
You are now engaging in out and out lying.
You have said the age of consent should be lowered to 12--and not 15. You supported Roman Polanski for raping that 13 year old--you didn't think he had done anything wrong. You've said that 12 and 13 year olds are being deprived of
their sexual freedom by not being "allowed" to legally consent to sex. That's why other A2K members began calling you "shorteyes".
You want rape laws to go back to requiring extreme force and resistance? Why so more women can be beaten black and blue and more of them killed? How much resistance do you want women in their 80's and 90's to put up? Elderly women typically offer no resistance because they are afraid of being killed. How about 12 year olds who are raped by their fathers? How much resistance do they have to put up?
Obviously, some force would be used in all rapes, since the female is non consenting, unless she's so incapacitated or impaired she can't physically respond--if no force at all was used, the female would just get up and leave and there would be no rape. The only change has been that the laws no longer require extreme force or extreme threat in all rape situations, and a simple, "No" constitutes non consent.
In situations in which there is "confused consent"--meaning the consent is unclear to the male--it should be clarified
before the sex act takes place--otherwise the sex act should not take place. If the female really wants to engage in sex, and you stop, she'll let you know that she wants to continue and that she's giving consent
Rape is not about the "erotic"--that's your fantasy about raping women--it's apparently erotic for
you to imagine raping someone, or actually raping someone (and you said you've committed rape). Even the study you posted in this thread showed that victims of both acknowledged and unacknowledged rapes suffer extremely negative and long lasting consequences as a result of the rape--and that included date rapes.
You have advocated the legalization of child pornography--child pornography depicts sex acts. There is another thread on the subject of child pornography and you were a prime contributor, arguing it should be legalized because you see possession and viewing of it as a victimless crime.
You seem to be trying to rehabilitate your "image" by suddenly trying to tone down your views. But you've voiced them so often everyone already knows how you think. So knock off the BS.
