Why is talking about rape disturbing? The Israelis have been raping Palestinians for a long time.
Note: This isn't the first time someone brought sexual abuse or sexual activity into a discussion that you reacted like that. I recall a comment of mine in the election thread wherein you'd spoken of racist laws prohibiting inter-racial marriages, and I had mentioned that in many of those same places, anal sex was also illegal even with one's spouse, and you'd had a similar reaction. If something it disturbing to you as a matter of discussion of very real aspects of life, I'd recommend looking at your reactions to common discussions of those realities, and why you have those reactions. They are, indeed, parts of our realities, even if unpleasant in some cases and/or for some people.
Rape in itself is disturbing. You don't think so?
Replying to someone's comment and suggesting that they let someone rape them in the ass is a lame response to anything. I've never felt the need to engage anyone with that type of a response. But obviously others do. And some normalize it when it's anything but normal.
And just how did I react? My post wasn't much of a reaction. It's actually pretty mild. No rage, not emotional, just to the point. A couple questions and then my take on the comment. Where is this reaction you speak of? Inquiring minds...
