Re: Trigger warning: This is what rape committed by women really is

I should clarify, cause that was long winded: Ayrt was bringing real world shit into an argument about fantasy. Party foul. Your response seemed to me to edge slightly on the "But its sort of the same thing" side which would be the exact same party foul. We are engaged in a purely fictional discussion, let's not forget that that line is there, yeah?

Nayrt
Eh. I understand what you're getting at but at some point, relating a fictional thing to its real life definitions is necessary because real life situations and morals is what people measure fictional situations and morals against.

I dunno, I think you can use real life situations and morals to measure fictional situations and morals, but I don't in think its necessary. I sure as hell wouldn't like my fictional actions in a video game for example to be measured by real life morals.

I think I mainly don't get your point here. Of course rape (or murder in video games) isnt real life rape or murder. But it's still depicted as rape or murder in the medium of choice that portrays it. Saying "There are real life rapes and murders" doesn't change that, it's actually pretty non sequitur in this context.

I'm trying to phrase right and obviously failing.

I mean that we, in the real world do not need to judge that stuff that happens in fiction the same way we would IRL. Like if someone, for example defends a murdered or a rapist in fiction that is separate from defending real life rape. Like saying "Regina is not a rapist" would be acceptable to me - Something I'd argue, sure but perfectly OK - its just not the same as saying "Roman Polanski is not a rapist". I kinda feel like people are judging the real world defence of fictional rapists with the same measure as you would a real wold situation? You know?

Like what I'm getting at is that there's a greater value difference between supporting slavery IRL, and selling fenris is DA 2 than just 'well fenris isn't part of o world but is still slaver' You know?

FWIW, I think what you're saying makes sense.

Oh, Good.

I'm sometimes shitty at making myself clear. Prolly why I do so much wall of text comments.
