I cannot believe this conversation. Are we seriously going to equate a hot night of sex with a beautiful woman (even if it was a witch in disguise) with a violent rape? Even if it was "rape by deception" it is in no way close to the trauma and pain that comes with a violent sexual assault that is entirely non-consensual.

Let's say someone had some technology to turn themselves into the most attractive actress or actor to you, say, Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie, just for one night. You think you've had an amazing night with Brad Pitt. It turns out later it wasn't actually Brad Pitt, but some other dude, who is still actually somewhat attractive if just a bad person.

OK, you might be creeped out, and ticked off, but you have in no way been violated or hurt in the same way as someone who was *forced* to have sex with some horrible, gross, smelly, scary person.

And if you try to equate the two and make them equal, I daresay you are being a drama queen at best, and a narcissistic at worst. You are minimizing the violence of the non-consensual rape. You are insulting real rape victims here.

I can imagine that many people would gladly choose to have the night of hot sex with the illusion of Brad Pitt even if it they know it wasn't him. Or, even if they didn't know and were POed afterwards when they were told the truth, would in the end be glad for the experience...(as long as it was safe sex.)

Don't *ever* try to compare that to a real rape!

People who are violently raped are often beaten and hurt...some literally have their insides torn to pieces, and some end up in comas, literally. Little children are raped in Africa to cure AIDs and end up with a disease as well as fistulas (look that up).

This same "rape" crap was put out on the Internet with the TV show Grimm, when the main guy had sex with a hot witch disguised as his wife...and a baby ensued. Some people freaked out about it, of course. Probably the same people who think words are literal violence, and freak out if someone says something unkind...equating it to the equivalent of literal torture.

Either you haven't actually experienced real horror or pain in your life if you think Hook was really "raped" - or, you are so focused on your past trauma you project it onto *every* situation, even if it doesn't even come barely close.

Sorry for the rant...but I was so annoyed reading this I literally created an account to comment. I actually find it offensive to victims of violent rape to even make the comparison to rape here.
