      “the body has a way of just shutting that down”

      Or some such nonsense from some senile US senator.

    Does enjoying something automatically mean one consented to it? I wonder what analogies one can think of for men to help them understand?

      Do you like steak? Most people do.

      Imagine someone strapping you down and force feeding you a steak. Under normal circumstances, where you have complete control of your body, you’d probably enjoy that steak very much. But, in a situation where someone else is controlling your body and forcing it on you, you wouldn’t enjoy eating that steak at all.

      Now imagine someone strapping you down and force feeding you literal shit. That’s what being raped is like.

      That is a two pain point issue, some of the people spouting this shit want that, they want control over the female and the grubs they made. The other just wanna force someone to take care of them not having to be there when they could be on a beach somewhere lurking on drunk ladies.

    And if you didn’t get pregnant, there’s no evidence, so I guess it didn’t happen. (Unless the ruling party doesn’t like that guy.)

    So, yeah. Someone friendly with the ruling party can pretty much rape with impunity, as long as there aren’t too many witnesses.
