Maybe someone should introduce you to [rotten.com](http://rotten.com) or the “faces of death” movies. Those (Or at least most of them) are far more real than any rape-porn you’ll find. Hell, you can see real people dying every now and then watching one of those police-chase shows, the news, etc.

That’s right, go out and find the people in those pictures and the people who made them, and get sworn testimony from them the photos are faked. Oh, what’s that? You can’t, you say? Unrealistic, you say? Gee, I guess you can’t prove it’s fake at all, can you? So for all we know, that’s real rape we’re looking at. That’s real blood, those are real burns, those are real screams of pain.

Oh. My. Gawd. That’s just the best.

Regardless of how flawed that argument is, agree to at least look at it this:

Which is more likely:

(a) A woman is kidnapped, brought into a basement where lights and cameras are waiting, she’s bound and gagged, beaten and whipped, done up the ass, multiple cum shots etc… and all this time genuinely screaming for her life. These men in the meantime actually _document_ themselves commiting a felony.

**OR**

(b) She’s acting. He’s acting. They’re trying to make a buck or two (regardless of ethics involved).

Occams Razor.

I’m fully aware of that. The same goes here. And the same misconception too, that every individual has a right to get their voices heard. Maybe I was a bit unclear in my use of pronouns. But, being a journalist myself, I stand firmly béhind the idea that Larry Flynt is a price worth paying, to avoid cencorship.  
It only gives them the right to buy their own printing press and start chunking out rants against… rape porn.

You people are sick.

I love you all.

And I respect the apparently infinite patience of those who are trying to get **Lizard** and **Space Vampire** (“coast to coast!”) to see past their own preconceptions and recognize that they cannot apply their personal moralities to everybody else. My wife and I share a happy and fulfilling sex life that goes into some of these “icky” fantasy areas, and we’re none the worse for wear. I had considered weighing in a couple of pages ago, but I recognize that jumping up and down and screaming would make me look just as silly as those I’d be trying to convince. So I’ve stayed out.

Keep it up, y’all. You’re doin’ the Lord’s work here. 😉

I think we won this one, guys and gals. It appears that Lizard and Space Vampie ain’t hanging around no more. Perhaps they will be by later to comment on the error of their ways?

Check any of my last three posts. I already said several times that what people do to themselves in private or think in their own head is of no consequence.

And no, I’m not done. Not by a long shot. Some people here have proven to be very resistant to my main arguments, since red herrings are STILL falling like rain. Very well. As soon as I have time to type it, I will prepare the Mother of All Anti-Rape Porn Arguments.

I can’t believe you are even pretending to be serious with this.

Actually, I’m bored with this argument, but since everyone’s celebrating victory I’ll just pop and and say: what-the-fuck-ever. You all are either defending things sight-unseen that you wouldn’t if you had a better idea of what I’m talking about, or are utterly depraved sub-humans who should be summarily executed. I will be charitable and assume the former; that some bondage-freaks might be offended that others look down on their preference I can understand, but that an overwhelming majority of the people on this board can truly look at the stuff I’m talking about and honestly call it okay is a prospect so horrible it makes me wonder if [VHEMT.org](http://VHEMT.org) might be the way to go. So for the sake of whatever faith in humanity I have left, I will assume most of you are either unclear on what material I’m talking about or are playing devil’s advocate.

Also, this debate actually makes me regret the ban on pornographic links. It would definitely help if we were all talking about the same stuff, which I suspect we’re not. Not that I intend to do a lot of digging, but just the stuff that shows up in my spam folder is pretty awful.

Prove your innocence! Prove their innocence!

Tell you what…YOU hunt 'em down and prove their GUILT. That makes just a tiny smidgen more sense to me.

Or do we save that kind of thing for the trial?

Sheesh.

I don’t care what evidence Lizard and Space Vampire come up with, unless it’s a set of court documents detailing the successful prosecution of producers of REAL RAPE PORN.

Sheeit, I saw a VERY realistic looking pornographic execution of a woman. It was realistic enough that it genuinely disturbed me. I really thought this woman had been shot and that the .mpg of it was floating around the internet.

Then I discovered it had been faked.

Didn’t make it any less disturbing, but knowing it was faked made me a lot more comfortable about the fact that it was being distributed on the internet. What I’m getting from the anti-rape-porn people in here is that even if there **was** proof that it was faked, they’d think it was awful and want it gone because it LOOKS too real and SOMEONE might get IDEAS.

You wanna see realistic looking rape? Want me to come up with a list of movies that include realistic rape scenes? **Mainstream** movies? If someone rents “The Accused,” not to see the intense trial, but to masturbate to the rape scene, should we take the movie off the market because “SOME sick fuck is getting OFF on that!!!”?? If not…why? It’s still someone getting off to a realistic representation of rape…

I just don’t understand, I guess. And since **Lizard** never answered my twice-posted question yesterday (and yes, **RTFirefly** , I think he’s posted enough times since then and I’ve waited long enough that it can be safely assumed that he ignored it), I have to assume that even if the videos were advertised as “Simulated depictions of rape” he’d object. So I’m trying to figure out when rape scenes become okay, or if they’re NEVER okay, and if they’re NEVER okay, why he hasn’t campained to ban “The Accused,” “The Highlander,” “The Usual Suspects”…

I was raped while unconscious.

Before that and after I still have rape fantasies. They aren’t connected. I would never want to be raped again for real.
