We're all agreed that the ardeur is essentially mystic date-rape, right? I mean, the men can't really consent to it and to make matters worse they can become addicted to it. But... I recently whilst watching Law and Order: SVU I wondered, what would actually happen if one of Anita's harem actually realised it was rape?
This is assuming, of course, they're not blindly in love with the Doom Crotch. Or even what would happen if someone grew a spine and actually pointed out that it was rape? I know that LKH wouldn't dare put Anita in a situation like that because she evidently doesn't think it's rape and besides, Anita's a blatent self-insert.
But supposing Anita's world was real or that LKH had half a brain, what would the consequences be for Anita if someone actually spoke up and said that she had raped them and how would she react? How would you deal with something like the ardeur in the real world?

It sounds to me like you're just "translating" the text to support the conclusions you already made- that it's all Jean-Claude's fault, and Micah is totally innocent. I'm not going to go point by point on how much you've assumed and bent to support your argument, so I'll just say that I don't agree and that doesn't make me a "bad feminist" or whatever it is you're trying to imply.
