Oh, I don't think she thought she wrote a rape scene at all. Just a 'strong men being all manly and overcoming a woman's resistance, when the man KNOWS she wants it, is smexy' AND then got blow back from her publishers when they go blow back from the book buying public, and hurried to make it (only slightly) less rapey. (I'm sure she still thought all the complainers were prudes, since the following books have been filled with non-consensual sex in mass quantity.) :-\
And yes I also don't want to draw parallels between her writing and her real life, in that direction there be monsters!
