Sex Without Consent is Rape
No matter what a guy says, if the woman that he’s attempting to have sex with hasn’t said yes with full knowledge of what she’s doing, it’s rape. So many young people go out and have a night out on the town, fill themselves with drugs and alcohol, and then find themselves doing things that they would never do if they hadn’t got themselves so drunk or stoned.
There’s also the cases where her drink has been spiked, and now she’s groggy and incomprehensible due to the drugs in her system. She’s not aware of what’s going on around her, so she’s definitely not in a position to decide whether or not she wants to have sex with you. If you engage in sex with her during such a state of being almost passed out, then you’re raping her.
Taking Advantage of Her Feelings
Let’s look at another scenario. She’s liked you for ages and ages. Then she finally manages to get into a lip-locked kissing session with you, and suddenly you force yourself on her. She’s caught totally by surprise. Because she was only expecting to kiss you, she isn’t prepared for what happens next. She’s like a rabbit in the spotlight, caught off guard. She doesn’t say no, but she doesn’t encourage it either.
You finish, you get up and leave, and you have no intention of continuing to see her. It was just a conquest to you. What you’ve done is rape her, despite the fact that she wasn’t expecting what you did to happen and didn’t really object. You have taken advantage of her feelings for you, just to satisfy your own selfish needs. You’ll leave her with a sense of abandonment and guilt over what has just happened.
Plus, you more than likely know that what you did or are about to do was or is wrong. Shame on you. Don’t do it. Don’t take advantage of a woman’s love for you, when you have no intention of becoming involved with her. Especially if she didn’t try to seduce you. And doubly especially if you’re both only young and she’s your first experience with a guy. You’ll cause hurt that will become a blockage in her that gets in the way of her trusting the man who is right for her. Keep your selfish needs for those who willingly and knowingly consent to what you want to do.
