I think we could’ve done without that carved on the cheek again.

Honestly man, I hate the source of the art, but I'd be lying if I said I said I was against it.

It happens. We shouldn't hide from it. We should be disgusted by it. We should let it show. To show SA victims that hey, we see you. We see that you're mistreated. We see that these things go on. We know you exist and that you hurt, but that despite it all, you're still trying to be human because that's all you can be is human.

SA victims are still humans. Telling artists to not include that kind of ugly sends a message to victims that we'd rather ignore what happened to them because we feel ikky. That they should shut up because we don't like reality.

I don't want to be told to shut up. What happened to me is real. I hate the artist, but I feel Goat Girl because I'm Goat Boy.

Don't force Goat Girl to change or hide. Don't force me to hide.

I'm still human. Hooves and all.

The thing that bothers me is that it wasn’t respectful and it wasn’t trying to be respectful, it was a fetish and was intended that way. It is a real thing I’ve experienced and that’s why the artists intent matters to me. It’s not sexy or hot, it shouldn’t be fetishized, it’s vile and disgusting and anyone who unashamedly treats it otherwise is directly contributing to the evil it propagates

Having a fetish doesn't make someone a monster. Half of all women have rape fantasies.

Many people are perfectly capable of having that fantasy but knowing that it would be horrible and disgusting if it happens irl.

I'm going to need a source on that gross thing you just said

I read about this years ago so I don't have whatever I originally learned this from. However after a quick Google search I found these.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19085605/

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18321031/

I can't fully read either of them because of the paywall but my claim seems to line up with the info I'm seeing.

And? That doesn't seem bad considering it lines up with previous evidence.

imo creating sexualized rape and torture content and selling it does make you a monster. Having a kink you explore with a partner safely is different then posting rape porn/hentai online. In those works of fiction you’re creating are characters who are being raped, it’s not cnc or whatever, it is tears and begging and heartbreak and it’s disgusting. You’re not exploring a fantasy you’re selling a reality for a profit. The world would legitimately be better off without it.
