I think rape is not really the appropriate word here, but I do think this story raises some really important points. We don't generally hear these kinds of stories because of what the writer points out--that the guy would most likely be made fun of. Sad, but true. Why is it like that? Secret Writer....I'm glad you were able to share your story here and get it off your chest. I hope that you can indeed share it with your girlfriend and work through it emotionally with her.

Agreed. The R word is a legal accusation of assault. Seduction, Pressure, Even prostitution though unsavory and perhaps worthy of shunning and shaming, cannot be grounds for throwing someone in a cage against their will.
Thanks @corinnestokes!
I think I agree "rape" isn't really the right word, and sorry if that was confusing in my story, I guess I feel taken advantage of, but I know it wasn't rape in a legal sense or anything like that.
I've thought about that sometimes. Do you think it's possible that guys don't want to feel vulnerable? There is so much "bravado" and manly man stuff, like maybe guys don't want to even think about the possibility of getting taken advantage of by a girl? I dunno.
Kind of ironic cause I think if we talked about it more we'd actually be less vulnerable lol.
