Oops, I didn't want to give the impression that not wanting to sleep with someone hot was a hypocrisy. I'm struggling to put into words how to explain it - Anita flashes between being picky and taking anyone in the vicinity. After she bonked Requiem and Byron just because they were there and apparently willing, and London even though he wasn't until she addicted him, it's odd to see her suddenly get choosy about who to sleep with. It seems to me that she picks certain sex partners (JC, Richard, Micah) because she likes them and wants to, some (Asher, Nathaniel) because they are a compromise or she has been badgered into doing it and some (Requiem, Byron, Rafael, London etc) because they were just there.
There's also an element of some of her sex partners (e.g. London, Byron, Requiem) being picked for emergency sex or otherwise because up until that point they didn't see her as a sex object. Graham, who has looked at her that way all along, is. It's immensely confusing.
LKH claims to be a Wiccan. The Pagan community is a large percentage GLBT, and polyamory etc are well enough known to be discussed happily on Pagan hubs like Witchvox. Wicca preaches tolerance & acceptance of all lifestyles. As a Pagan myself, LKH's squicking baffles me. Why even write about it?
I LOATHE the idea that a man cannot be raped. It is even enshrined in law; that it's only rape if penetration of a woman occurs. Even if the man has an erection, he can refuse to consent, he can be raped. He can't control having an erection or not. His body might say yes, but if his mind says no, that is rape, and the mind (and voice) saying no is what law distinguishes as nonconsensual.
