[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder what they do with the infamous rape/nonconsensual scene. [/quote]

That’s not rape. I read the Vox article, and I found it troubling to equate the scene with rape.

And, the whole storyline is irrational.

“I love you so deeply, but I won’t sleep with you anymore.” Riiiiiiiight.[/quote]

What rape scene?  There wasn’t one in the book.[/quote]

It might be over the top to call it rape but people are referring to the scene where Daphne gets Simon to finish inside of her when she suspects he doesn’t want to. [/quote]

I don’t get the rape reference either. They were having consensual sex...she made him finish in her instead of on the bed. It’s definitely deceptive but not rape.

Concent can be withdrawn at any point during an encounter. He said stopped, she forced him. It is definitely portraying a violation of consent, whether you want to call it rape or not. [/quote]

+1 hands down its a lack of consent. If the genders were reversed we would definitely said it was rape. If a couple was having sex and a man finished in a woman without a condom against her consent it becomes rape.[/quote]

I would agree with you if he said stop but he never did. . Finishing in  woman without a condom is a shitty think to do, if beforehand she said not to, but it’s not rape.[/quote]

So many of you have a very tenuous understanding of consent and it's a bit scary...

Finishing inside a woman who believes you are wearing a condom is a violation of the consent she has given you. She did NOT consent to that, and therefore it is akin to rape.

Daphne asked her maid to explain conception to her in the prior scene. She knew very well what she was doing. However, she believed it to be an answer to HIS consent violation in lying to her about the nature of sex and his ability to conceive. It's problematic is multiple ways. But what she did to him was not consensual, and I find it really concerning the number of people posting here that can't see that. [/quote]

BS. Daphne did not rape him. She got on top and he was clearly into it. If he didn't want to finish he could've very easily thrown her off. Getting someone so excited that they can't control their own orgasm is not rape.[/quote]
