(for example whining when your friend doesn’t want to go out to Karaoke a little bit is usually not going to result in trauma) but what I want to understand is what the mechanism of this difference is? Is it a social thing about the value/intimacy/etc of sex? Is it hardwired human nature? Is it not actually and we’re just excessively blasé about violations of consent in other areas? Why is having sex you’re not particularly into so much more harmful than going for burgers to keep the peace when you really wanted pizza?
I’m not trying to be flip. As most of you know, I’m a survivor myself, I’m just trying to understand what makes it different?
