I HATE rape scenes so so much. I am lucky I have not ever been in that situation but my sister has and watching it, even fake, is genuinely terrible and traumatizing. I hate that there are people out there that do this and live with themselves.

You can imply it happened in a story without showing it

i think even with how gruesome it can be, as someone who has gone through this and knows many people who have, the recognition of it is good. it’s one thing to romanticize it, and it’s another to highlight. it should be mentioned first thing though in case anyone wants to avoid it

i agree but sometimes i wonder if it’s helpful as awful as it seems to show the violence and how horrific it is. so it’s not brushed off as a thing that happens but recognized for the evil it is that should be condemned (such as guys no longer being friends with rapists)
