> looking at sex is morally equivalent to engaging in sex
Ok sounds g-
>Therefore porn is ok
??????
If y'all were having as much sex as you watched, you'd be addicted to sex, you'd be messed in the head. If you had the same KIND of sex that you watched, you'd be in prison.
Let's try again since radfems are stupid.
There is nothing about *looking* at sex that is any morally different to engaging in sex. Adding a camera does not affect morality either. It will not rot your brain or make you an addict or force you to change your views on sex or mess with your brain chemicals and bonds with people or any other bullshit that people come out with. Sex is ok to look at.

What the Bible says about rape
The misconception: "The Bible says that if a man rapes a woman, then she has to marry him." The reference: "If a man entices a virgin who is not betrothed, and lies with her, he shall surely pay the bride-price for her to be his wife." — Exodus 22:16
What it actually means: If a man seduces a woman, and they hook up— As in, two consenting adults having sex— then he is responsible for sullying her honor. Therefore, he must marry her to uphold said honor. Of course, he also has to get permission from the father. The father will obviously talk to his daughter about it, and then the man. If the father sees that the man is a literal garbage human being, then the father won't allow the man to marry his daughter. But even in that case, the man who seduced the woman still has to pay money to help support her for the rest of her life.
It's not talking about rape.
The actual Bible verse on rape: “But if in the open country a man meets a young woman who is betrothed, and the man seizes her and lies with her, then only the man who lay with her shall die. But you shall do nothing to the young woman; she has committed no offense punishable by death. For this case is like that of a man attacking and murdering his neighbor, because he met her in the open country, and though the betrothed young woman cried for help there was no one to rescue her." — Deuteronomy 22:25-27
What it means: If a man forces himself on a woman, kill him.
Obviously there's more to both of these verses like context, and what was happening in the culture around the time it was written. That and these are national laws for Israel. But at the end of the day, we see how God feels about rape, and how valuable the honor of a woman truly is.
Deuteronomy 22:28-29 are a repeat of Exodus 22:16-17. Same scenario. Also not about rape.

I know I'm not allowed to feed the wildlife but it feels like I might as well because this squirrel comes all the way up to my feet and stands on his hind legs with his paws folded to beg anyway

GRRM may write more women than Tolkien, but as a woman I would feel much safer in Tolkien's world, and around the author himself
