re: #337 LudwigVanQuixote
If words like ravage or ravish drive away the bad connotations associated with other words that could equally be used in describing a sexual power exchange, then great! So be it and enjoy.
My point on that part is that pretty much everyone has a power exchange dynamic (to a greater or lesser extent) in their sexual expressions and whatever you call it, it is all just different shades of the same sort of thing.
I don’t disagree with anything you’ve said on the subject.
But getting back to Rand (and I know we’ve all pretty much moved on anyway!) seems to me that if she thought that raping women was a natural and honest expression of a man’s sexuality, I would then assume that this is how she would enjoy sex and even demand it, hence the comment way up there that she had rape fantasies.
A rational, healthy minded person may scream, “Take me you hunk of burnin love!” during a hot session, but it wouldn’t mean the same thing. And I think you agree :)
And yes, that’s exactly how I speak to Mr. Moon.
