57 percent of women admit (often ashamedly) that such a thought [rape fantasy] has arisen in their minds
- according to a meta-study at the University of North Texas
No woman wants to be pulled from the street and raped defenselessly on a grass or somewhere else filthy. However, that very idea could turn on women as much as it is supposed to scare them off. So what does this really mean?
Dissecting the Anatomy of Rape Fantasy
Domination
A lot of women prefer to be dominated in the bedroom. This is were rape fantasy grows, for one obvious thing about rape that could be turning on a woman is the fact that in this situation, she is controlled. She is told what to do and her body is obligated to submit in order to not be hurt or killed.
Desire to be Wanted so Badly
This is not supposed to justify rape, but there is something about it that translates to a man wanting a woman so badly that he would go as far as to perform that criminal act and hurt the woman just to be inside of her. Many women want to be feel and know that they are longed for--that their bodies are praised and craved for. Rape, in a different perspective, shows that.
Control over No Control
When women fantasize about rape, they are able to control a situation wherein they don't have any control at all by the way they imagine the whole rape situation. With the power to manage the whole situation in their imagination and maybe even upon the fulfillment of the fantasy (asking the guy to force his way into her in her sleep), she gives the demand to be dominated and given no control. She gives the initiative or the much needed consent.
Rough Sex
A lot of women like rough sex., and there is nothing rougher than a rape. Need I say more?
Clarification
Rape fantasies are to be fulfilled with consent between both parties or all parties. It is not to be fulfilled by actual rape nor used to justify the crime.
