So what you are saying is that rape is rape. Meaning that there is no difference between when your husband is in the mood and you’re not and being violently attacked in some dark alley by a stranger.

I think women are doing a great disservice to themselves by insisting on the same term for something that is extremely terrifying and dangerous and something that is simply unwanted.
