None of what i said implies any of what you just said it would imply, and i can't even understand how you would get the idea that it does. And neither did i ever change a definition. I was very consistent in what i was saying, you just didn't understand what i was saying and thus claim that it changed. Your argument does not have anything to do with what i am saying, and yet you claim it does. I am done. | ||

What i am saying is the following: If you consent, it is no longer rape. No matter what is happening, it is not rape, because you are consenting is an argument from ignorance and if i were to ask you to describe such a scenario you'll see that differences in definitions or discrepancies in consent will appear on your side. | ||

How does one consent to rape exactly? When rape is the sexual act against someone without consent, how does rape with consent look like? And how is consenting, and then not being able to call it rape an argument of ignorance? Sure you may want to retract your consent during the act, but it's better to see consent as a continuous gradient parameter than a discrete one in that case. Literally the first sentence on the wiki regarding rape: Rape is a type of sexual assault usually involving sexual intercourse or other forms of sexual penetration perpetrated against a person without that person's consent. | ||

(you can't un-kill yourself and you can't un-rape yourself by changing consent mid way; the option is no longer there). rape is an action in time, you either consent to all or to none. if you stop it mid way by changing your consent, it is no longer rape. i see Simbertos argument as allowing a constant consent state from beginning to the end. theoretical example: he agrees to be raped by me. the first thing i do is drug him. he will then argue that he is no longer able to give consent and everything ends; he doesn't get raped because he withdraws his consent but i wouldn't care(for argument's sake obviously). | ||

Consent is not a 'no way back' commitment and can be withdrawn at any time during the act, making further action illegal. Your basic premise is already false | ||

Your basic premise is already false you people fail to see that the definition of rape is made in hindsight(it needs to happen, the whole of it) and as such, fail to properly apply it in foresight(and that is what i call you changing the definition of the word). | ||

I don't care about your opinion or whatever fantasy construct you use to explain your opinion. The legal definition of consent is quite clear and not what you are using. | ||

i'd like to note though that some/most(?) philosophers think that an authentic self which is needed for consent doesn't even exist. | ||

How can you agree to rape? Rape is intrinsically an action you don't agree with. So how does your example even make any sense? | ||

I'm glad we finally got to the point where you admit to discussing an idea using your own definition of words and then being surprised when everyone else who uses the normal definition of those words disagrees with you. I think we're done here. ps. I have assigned custom definitions to every word in this post. It now means whatever I think it should mean at the time. | ||

So how does your example even make any sense? you can only consent in hindsight(as per a preread definition or your own expectations of something) but not in foresight(as per your rapist definition of it because that will always be uncertain to you). | ||

The stupid rape discussion only started yesterday, so if you truly hadn't checked the thread in days, you wouldn't even have known it had ever started. What you meant is that you hadn't checked the thread in hours. Much self-control!  | ||
