    But... don't people say that "rape isn't about sex, it's about power" as well? Hmm...
    Yes they do. That does not mean a Dom is a rapist.
    People who think a movie about plastic dolls is trying to turn their kids gay or trans are now officially known as

    Barbie Q’s

    I never said they were "new", I said that the commercialization and commodification of human sexuality is unnatural.

    People have been being deviant for most of human history, that's nothing new. Slavery is ancient as well.

    It means it's a potential legal outlet for people who have the same psychological desires as a rapist but don't want to run afoul of the law.

    Those are just nifty legal neologisms which distract from the simple truth.

    The simple truth is that attempts to commercialize and commodify human sexuality are deviant by nature and are born from the same mindset as that which rationalizes rape.

    No, they aren't. Consent, maybe, but control and power? That's about psychology.

    No, it doesn't mean that to anyone except amateur armchair shrinks.

    Correct, so if the psychology behind that type of "relationship" is solely about power, then that's something they have in common with a rapist.

    If anything, addressing cultural corruption is much more rebellious.
    Since when has protecting the mainstream ever been more rebellious than not protecting it?
