****

[Ronin]

This reminds me, was there much **** going on when the Americans occupied Iraq? Any stats on the subject? **** has always been a part of war as someone said before, so I'm curious.

Isolated in the actual invasion.

The occupation is a different story.
Case example:
Prostitution is illegal in Iraq. If someone gets picked up as a prostitute on the streets, she will find herself in abu graib.
There won't be any reports and the woman will be back on the street within 12 hours. The rest is left to your imagination.

Sorry, what if he brushes his ding dong against the woman's hoohah without hitting a home run.

Do you feel better now?

I came. :3

Keep the comments relatively respectful, people.

Keep on topic.

Nobody said it wasn't about sex; it is. But it's more complicated than that.

Psychologists, criminologists (and other -ologists ) generally agree that there are a variety of motivations for ****. Based on empirical studies (and contrary to common sense), sexual gratification is generally regarded as the least common motivator. Power and anger are generally cited as the most common motivators for ****.

That begs the whole question of, what is ****? Of course forced intercourse is, but if a man rips a woman's clothes off and then stops, is that ****? What if he brushes his penis against the woman's vagina without inserting it? This is a question that courts continue to struggle with.

It's forced intercourse, and even then, **** is a massively tricky thing to deal with.

Sad as it is, women have lied about ****; women do lie about **** and women will lie about ****.

Then you have the matter of confusion. I have had a female friend come to me and say she was *****, then when I asked her about it the following morning she said she was just drunk (She didn't report it because even while drunk, she had doubts as to what happened).

Also, it's FORCED intercourse, right? On that note, you have to look at initiation.

If a woman is forced to the ground and forced into sex, is it **** even if she doesn't try to stop the guy? Arguable, but I'd say yes, because he forced her down.

If you and a girl are getting hot and heavy, you decide you wanna take it further and she doesn't stop you; it isn't ****. She could be laying there hating it in that instance, but if she doesn't express that or try to stop you, I'd say it's not ****. Some girls have tried to use that argument: "I was too scared to say anything.". It shouldn't be accepted. You should know you did all you could.

This is, of course, speaking about adults or young people old enough to know what **** is. Not children of drastically young age.

Additionally, you have to bring into question just how far you go with consent. I always found it absolutely ludicrous that a girl can give a guy consent, but a court can come in and say: "She was too young/underaged, she didn't know what she was doing.". All despite her knowing what sex is and what **** is.

Whether or not a woman is scared, she should always bear in mind that not speaking up just makes things harder and makes it more difficult to prosecute the scumbag. If you are being forced, you should always do everything you can to stop it. Never give consent if you don't want to, either. Although, women can lie about giving consent and men can lie about receiving it.

It's a very difficult crime to deal with.
