    It’s more blunt, but people who have been raped would point out that there’s a big difference between the sexual nature of consensual non consent, and the objectively violent nature of rape.

    It’s less that it’s less honest than that it’s more clear about what it is, and what it isn’t. It’s about what people think rape is about, and not what it actually is: angry, hateful and violent.

      But consensual non consent as well as rape can be soft

      Eg free use -> CNC

      Or use of power, like financial dependency -> rape

        That’s fair, and a good example on the first one.

        I don’t really care to quibble on the details too much, but I believe a lot of definitions would distinguish the coercive from the forcible.

        In either case, it speaks to the cnc phrase being more apt than otherwise.
