one woman stood up and said, gosh, you know, why would a community overwhelmingly made up of women be attracted to a fantasy where one bout of good sex would cause you to just magically get over your trauma from being raped? It's a mystery!

this feels all kinds of attention-seeking, but I'm having a Spot of Bother atm (ASIDE from the fact that, well, you can safely assume that if one is a member of Central Canadian Fandom one knows Walling and is currently thinking out some really tricky social and ethical questions wrt to one's own behavIour, which can be summarised as 'so, what *else* is he not welcome at until he cleans up his mess some?' with a side of 'how the fuck I missed that for *mumbelty* years?' ) going forward) so I'm just going to go ahead and say: I am very very glad I risked Synchronised Side-eye and went ahead and said that, then. Cause it was Useful, Yay.
