Bonus 10- It's Not Okay ~~Dianesa Sanon

I've written and rewritten this response but I think i've settled with this as an answer: why is r*** inserted into the story? How in depth is it is it described and how long does it run in the story? I was getting ready to say that writing in rape into stories is wrong no matter the premise but I think of the book The Lovely Bones and think that without it it wouldn't be as powerful as it was without, God forgive me, the r**ing of the little girl. In that book it creates a monster image for her killer and we loathe him. The book makes you want the pig to be found out and locked away. You get the chance to sympathize with the little girl. On the other hand, r***, more likely than not, doesn't need to be given a stage. I remember watching a movie on Netflix and the main lead was handcuffed to bed in a cabin far from any nearby town while her husband was dead on the floor after suffering a viagra induced heartattack (no, I will not be explaining further). The women crashes into a nervous breakdown after a hungry dog starts eating her late husband and the serial killer stalks the outside window and because that wasn't fucked up enough the writer includes a r*** that she was supressing from her childhood and hinted at it right before the husband died via attempted marital r***. I was super uncomfotable watching it. It wasn't needed. The story was messed up beyond all hell and the addition of r*** in the mix felt as though the author just wanted it to write it in just because. Yes, r*** is a big part of history but its something that shouldn't have to be relived constantly. People don't constantly write about mass genocides. If anything, writing about r*** is done because the author knows that there is always going to be a large majority of, mostly men, who want to see a woman struggle and taken against her will. Hardly ever will you see a screenplay of a grown man r**ing a child because thats a taboo line to cross. R*** is written in for the pleasure of the people who enjoy that kind of twisted thing and to simply put it: as long as there are consumers there are producers.
