yeah, we should all be free to define any old word any way we like. By the way, my previous sentence actually meant "football and chips are great instead of soap".

And yes of course it is as far as the 'rapist' is concerned, but again, the question was do women secretly enjoy rape - I took that to mean looking at it from the female perspective, being someone who doesn't see a bunch of words and make up my own meaning of them
