I am calm. The only way I'm not calm is in how worrying your attitude is.
No it wouldn't be, lol. Are you serious?
You're not understanding me. I understand what the questions were trying to get the men to "admit", I understand their agenda.
But the language used was misleading, intentionally designed to misdirect via not accounting for such consensual practices.

I don't see how. Both questions clearly stress that its against the persons wishes 'if they do not cooperate', 'even if they don't want to.' Its about as explicit as you can get without actually saying 'rape'.
For the sake of argument, let's assume that you're completely right. The common definition of coerce is basically to threaten someone into doing something that they don't want to do. The first question is specifically not taking into account things like BDSM.
The fact that two people just spent a page arguing otherwise is proof that the questions are not infallibly clear.
If I had taken this survey, I would have answered yes because I have never heard the worse "coerce" be used in the context of "threaten". I've always used it and heard it be used as basically a way to say "persuasion", and I'm an English major who got scored a 98/100 on the English portion of my entrance exam.
Does that make me a rapist? Or does that mean that I misunderstood the question?

My hope that not everyones as thick as him?Also, the examples they use 'twisting their arm, holding them down' don't seem to have much to do with BDSM as much as, well rape or rape-play. I just don't see how someone can be asked that and think 'oh, BDSM! Of course!'
What you and I think doesn't matter a whole lot though, does it? I mean, there's a difference between what "is" and what "should be".
There's generally a reason why surveys directly advertise whatever topic they're inquiring about. "Have you contracted AIDS from having sex?" is more likely to give you an accurate representation of how many people have gotten AIDS from having sex, then "have you ever gotten anything from having sex".
Oh Jesus, he said 'rape culture'. 😐
Rape, especially against women, is only considered to be one of the vilest crimes that can be committed. Rape culture comes from the same school of thought that produced such gems as the idea that everytime a man has sex with a woman it is rape because men have power over women.
