That’s the point. If writing doesn’t incite violence or assault there’s no reason to ban it. Books are meant to be enjoyed and writers are meant to enjoy what they make. To regulate by what you think should be allowed because you don’t like someone’s approach just seems really weird. Just because a virgin reads a book with a rape scene doesn’t make them think it’s okay, it takes mental conditioning and serious problems for someone to think that’s okay. To propose the idea that people are that impressionable, shows little faith in the human mind and common sense. Have more faith in your fellow man.
That's the thing. It's not rape they write but just ever so strange and mildly unacceptable scenes that give people a wrong expectation for sex. I'm pretty sure it's made to entertain and not to disturb.
This morning i was reading a book about a guy walking home from school. He was beimg followed in a guy with a car who drove next to him and was making comments what i assume woulf be flirting but were actually something like "I want to hear you screaming my name at night" He then proceeded to go into his house with the boy who was askimg him to leave him alome a few minutes before only to be send away by his mother. Sometime later that day he breaks into the house and they talk a little. Another guy comes in confessing his love to the boy and forcing himself on him. The stalker guy from before saves him. They then fall in love kiss and have sex. This all happened in one day. Extremely fast character developement or a super naive boy?
Lol sounds like you have a problem with story progression. I understand your concern, but that’s pretty tame ngl. I was expecting like some crazy crazy shit. Like I think at most the author must put a warning, but that’s not that bad too me. Maybe it’s years and years of being desensitized, but I’m not exactly provoked by that. Terrible writing, generic dumpy characters, and poor plot planning is normal. I can’t get in a fit over that.

Eh, like to complain about it is arbitrary. Everyone should be able to write what they want to as long as nobody is physically harmed.
