I wish someone would fuck me like that… 😮💨
Things that are common among rape survivors as coping mechanisms:
-Dark humor about rape
-Fantasizing about sex that looks like rape as a way to reestablish a feeling of control
These are not universal experiences - everyone processes differently - but they are common. Feeling shame about them is also common, or being told that they invalidate victimhood.
I believe you’re trying to help, so I’m not mad at you. But you aren’t helping.
Hmm… How would those survivors feel reading others joking about rape though? Without knowing what place it comes from?
I don’t think we would want to normalize “joking about rape” on the Internet as “okay”.
And where is the context stating this art is explicitly about rape? I just see a spooky black creature stretching out a lady’s body like some Cronenberg body horror.
I thought it was about depression or other mental struggles before seeing the comments explicitly saying otherwise. I don’t think your comment was out of line given that you didn’t know the author was depicting rape.
Bad jokes about rape are not cool, but if it’s a funny joke…
