      Like what if reading too many science books actually was illegal and you could go to jail for that?

      That’s an odd thing to compare to rape

      It would fucking suck if all you wanted was so easily reachable and achievable without harm to anyone but totally illegal.

      Do tell sir, how what this woman went through wasn’t ’harming anyone’.

      You want your wife to drug you and then let 50 men rape you?

      Well, if you consent to that, then nobody will go to jail and all will be well.

      Unless the drugs are illegal, I guess. Use legal drugs and write your consent. Have a lawyer look it over. Then, have fun!

      Well the main difference there would be between this case and sex between you and your wife I’d hope would be there was consent between you two.
