Thoughts About Rape In Fiction

Fiction, non-fiction doesn't matter. It's a vile act. Portraying romanticized rape in fiction is unnecessary, manipulative, and even harmful—especially when it feeds into real-life misconceptions about sexual assault that are often used to deprive rape survivors of legitimacy or justice.

Anyone can write stories about rape but should they when they know nothing about it?
It's just lazy writing.

There are stories about rape that are worth telling. But without extensive research into the problems, stereotypes, and struggles that rape survivors face—including what makes rape different from other forms of violence—it's too easy for fictional depictions to contribute to those issues rather than combat them. With so many other narrative tools out there, using rape is almost always unnecessary. There are better ways to tell nearly any story, so why use the one that tends to be both the laziest and the most harmful?

The "rape fantasy" that some of you have would be consensual. I don't think you would want to be raped by some unknown man in his late 50 or whatever.
The turn-on may be the idea of being forced to have sex for many individuals, but they do not actually want to be raped.
