Interesting that now “rape” is being defined as “not sexual” and “does not include sex”.
This certainly broadens the definition for the leftists to apply that term without limits to anything that offends them.
JMHO
I have always rejected the leftist mantra (now almost universally touted by so-called conservatives) that rape is about violence, not sex. It is a Marxist ploy to separate people fron reality, as a political weapon. (They want all other sexual acts separated from morality, so they divorce this specific immoral act from sex.)
How many aggressive, ruthless males in history “raped” (took by force: the true meaning of the word) women just to make them clean the dishes or wash the laundry?
The term, raoe - not inherently sexual - came to be specifically associated with sex precisely because a male rapes a woman for evil sexual purposes, not for evil non-sexual purposes.
