Truly. I read only a couple of the samples in the article and he’s more prankster than a foam-at-the-mouth troll.

No one misunderstood and your attempts at disquising are obvious to us all. Take your fantasy fodder to a board dedicated to such things.

So, you’re not trolling, and not an attention seeker. You’re just “interested in” a hypothetical scenario. Can you explain your motivation?

Well…I’m hoping to get into writing a novel and learning a bit about ‘controversial things’. Very open minded to many things (apparently also to bad things as some close to me have said).

Things like terrorism, mass murder, violence, etc…interest me. Don’t really have a taste for gore as some on this board might imagine but I’m just a very open

As you know, I’m very unjudgmenetal at some things that people would find repulsing (illegal porn, serial killers, terrorists) because I’d like to get to know more sides to the story.

The internet truly is the only place I can discuss these things. I tried during my high school days which weirded everyone out and a couple of times got me reported to my principal and vice principal.

And that clue-by-four didn’t leave enough of an impression on you?

So “how would you react to being raped- ladies only!” has no inherent sexual connotations?

Here’s what you said your motives are for asking:

> [@](#):

First of all, no one else in that thread had said anything about rape being “interesting”. Second, if you’d had an intellectual interest, you would’ve said so in the thread. But you “didn’t know”. Given your posting history, you know. We ALL know.

Rape is horrifying and given your nonchalant, creepy “interest” I didn’t overreact. If anything I underreacted.

One in 10 rape victims are male according to RAINN, and I’d guess that number is higher due to underreporting. Yet **FemmeJean** had no “interest” in male rape.

**fj** needs to learn how to coherence before thinking about writing a novel.

I mean, as in assembling thoughts together using appropriate syntax in a way that is parsable and not to difficult to make sense of.

Indeed.  
Seems obvious to me this person really likes two things:

1. Grossing people out, making them uncomfortable, or otherwise upset/disturbed.
2. Being on the receiving end of the predictable response #1 elicits​.
