Remember, we are having a discussion here that is not allowed in most places. The PC laws forbid an open and frank discussion on the subject of power in sexuality in polite company,
No, you are wrong. The subject of rape is discussed quite openly all the time. Of course, most normal, rational people, do not view rape as "power in sexuality"--they see it as a heinous criminal assault. But, as you've made quite clear,
you find rape laws a threat to
your need for "sexual power".
Let me repeat what I said before...
Rape is a criminal act, as defined in the statutes of all 50 states. Those sexual assault laws provide a common frame of reference when discussing the crime of rape and ensure that we are all discussing the same action. Without that specific common definition, provided in a state statute, the discussion becomes incoherent because it no longer has a common focus. And that has certainly been true of your overly nebulous ramblings that demonstrate your lack of familiarity with the specific state laws, and your confusion about what they actually contain.
You confuse rape shield laws, which are part of the rules of evidence in criminal trials, with the actual criminal sexual assault laws of a state. You refer to "levels of consent" in sexual assault laws, when no such levels exist, and when, in fact, the definition of rape in the 3rd degree in your state, Washington, hinges on a lack of consent. And you cannot state a valid reason you disagree with the actual sexual assault laws of your state--despite 376 pages of carping about them--that actually refers to the specific wording of those laws.
So, what you have effectively demonstrated is your ignorance and inability to deal with reality. The reality of those sexual assault laws resides in their exact wording--that is what defines the crime of a rape in a particular state. That is the crime we have been discussing--not what you think rape is, or should be, it is the actual, real life, current crime of rape. What you would be arrested and tried for, if you were charged with a crime of rape.
You attempt to varnish over your ignorance with your continued diatribes about bogeymen "feminists", in such an obsessive manner, that it truly suggests you have psychiatric problems. You have even repeatedly referred to me as "a feminist", despite my having said I do not consider myself a member of such a group, I am not conversant with their literature, and have posted no feminist position opinions in this thread. Again, that shows your inability to function within the bounds of reality. Your obsessions dictate that reality must bend to accommodate them, and, hence, your thinking reflects the distortions found in those with significant psychiatric problems. The only thing you have convinced me of in this thread is that you are paranoid, feel quite inadequate as a man, are overly concerned with power issues, need increasingly deviant sexual outlets to obtain sexual satisfaction, and try to blame all the sources of your misery on an ill-defined scapegoat you call "feminists" or "rape feminists" who you accuse of all sorts of covert actions which you claim are unbeknown to the rest of the public. You are a classic paranoid with somewhat diffuse delusions.
You lament that your views are rejected at A2k because they are "unpopular". That is a rather simplistic conclusion on your part, probably because you fail to appreciate how your posts sound to more rational readers. You have repeatedly been labeled as "sick" by many here at A2k, and not without reason. That you are unable to consider such feedback, and instead respond with renewed grandiosity, shows just how out of touch you are with what people are actually responding to in your statements. Your typical response to such comments is generally a rather juvenile insult--you attack the "masculinity" of male posters, accuse the females of being "man-hating" or "lesbians" and, of course, "feminists", and you call people "liars" when their remarks indicate no attempts at deceit. You display your anger, but absolutely no insight into yourself or how you impress others. They are all wrong, but you know you're right. You're the lone voice of "truth" crying into the wilderness. Sure, Hawkeye, sure. See yourself as some sort of martyr, rather than a nut, or a crackpot, or a narcissist concerned only with his own self interest and self gratification, or an inadequate male who is lost in a world where women have gained increasing power.
You have used a thread about rape to pump up your fragile sense of your own "masculity" by displays of sexism, misogyny, and attacks of all sorts on women and women's issues, along with your half-baked pseudo-sociological analyses of alleged gender power struggles and your view of rape as being "part of the sexual dance" or an aspect of "intimate relationships". You are a rape denier and a rape apologist, and you have told us you would ignore the rape laws if they got in the way of your own satisfaction. That you compared such an unabashedly selfish violation of criminal law to the selfless acts of civil disobedience by the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., shows just how distorted your thinking is.
So, by all means, Hawkeye, continue to post in this thread. Continue to display your ignorance and your pathology. Continue to exchange sexist and misogynist comments with your dimwitted sidekick, BillRM. Continue to ramble about irrelevancies, and your various "theories", and your obsession with "feminists".
You need this sort of platform, in the safe anonymous darkness of cyber-space, because, without it, I suspect you have very little going for you...
