i acknowledge that some women have rape fantasies but i think that’s less of a “kink” and more of a very sad kind of internalised sexism
I also still contend that most women are not actually having fantasies about being raped but rather fantasies about rough sex or surprise sex. I find it very difficult to believe that women are actually fantasizing about having their bodies violently violated.
There’s also something to be said for the theory that “rape” fantasies are prevalent because the imagined situation absolves the fantasizer of want/initiation and thus absolves them of the dreaded sexual agency in a patriarchal society. Basically it’s a way to fantasize about sex without “wanting” to have sex.
