But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.
Full of the heavens and time.

Aroused? That's pretty hard to define. Erection doesn't automatically equal arousal. A good case in point is men who are raped by other men and then think that they are gay, or that it wasn't rape and that they enjoyed it, because they got an erection during the violation. However, the erection is caused by the stimulation of the thousands of nerve endings in the groin region, not by any real sense of enjoyment.finn wrote:I think you'll find that a man can rape a woman but a woman cannot rape a man. The legalities are I believe, tied up in the act itself, if a man is capable and aroused for the act, it is deemed that he is an 'active' party and in effect consenting.
That being said, I would say that cases of women raping men are very rare.
You do not hear, and so you cannot be redeemed.
In the name of their ancient pride and humiliation, they had made commitments with no possible outcome except bereavement.
He knew only that they had never striven to reject the boundaries of themselves.

Not to derail this any further, but I gotta agree with Variol Son here. In fact, in SA, the law makes provision for the rape of men by women. There's actually been a recent court-case on this very subject.
(And let's not forget, all other things aside, that there is a now common and easily available pharmaceutical that can...command...a males response.)
Now back to the scheduled topic.

I don't know if I will ever post that particular theory about Esmer (mainly because there is one small piece of evidence that seems to kill it for good beyond the scope of sensible rationalizations) but the theory was not a Demondim in disguise. It was something altogether more radical and a thing nobody even once suspected the Mahdoubt would be, seriously or not (and a theory which incidentally involved a woman sort of raping a man ). I'll continue looking into Esmer however.

That's rather... anile. Poor guy. I wonder if he's going to learn that factoid later in the series as there are timetravellers/the Dead/Lord Foul/the Ravers at least who could tell him.
