I just can’t fathom how a woman can overpower a man in that manner. Even if a woman is physically stronger than the man. If a man really doesn’t want to, how could she even make him erect by force, let alone force it inside her?
I feel like I’m too ignorant on the subject. So please, anyone, enlighten me.
p.s. Statutory rape I do see how that would happen.
Rape does not always involve physically overpowering someone. Someone may coerce someone else into sex with blackmail, lies, threats, or abuse of a position of power.
Erections are controlled by a person’s autonomic nervous system. A man can get hard even when he is not turned on or consenting to what is happening.
Not all rape involves a penis. A woman who sticks an object into a man without his consent is committing rape. Rape is about power and control over another person, and the rapist need not be directly stimulated for rape to occur.
Number 3 in many states is legally not rape. In many states rape is legally defined as someone inserting a penis into a vagina. As fucked as that is, often people suggesting changes to the laws to make them more accurate to reality, end up getting vilified as some sort of apologist or predator themselves.
UK too https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2003/42/part/1/crossheading/rape
So I guess Mark was not raped.
Which US states?
This answer is from Kagi’s search summary: I don’t know how accurate it may or may not be:
As of 2024, the specific U.S. states that only define rape as requiring penis insertion are:
These states have not updated their legal definitions of rape to include other forms of sexual penetration or oral sex, which can lead to underreporting and inadequate prosecution of sexual assault cases. It is important to note that federal law and many other states have broader definitions of rape that encompass various forms of non-consensual sexual contact.
Overwhelmingly southern states. 🙄
Idaho is southern even though geographically it’s not
color me f*ing surprised.
The “abuse of a position of power” is what companies do nowadays… “either you click on agree to these new TOS or you can’t use Disney+ anymore, we don’t care if you paid until October”
