I don't think people should be allowed to write about people having sex in scifi or fantasy unless they get 10 other people to review what they've written and confirmed that it is in fact consensual sex and that no one is being drugged into it with SciFi™ or Magical™ means that the original author just thinks is hot without considering that it's literally fucking rape because one or more parties is literally not consenting.
This applies to many things. Off the top of my head, The Dragonriders of Pern, Doctor Who/Torchwood, Harry Potter...and so many fucking more.
If one or more parties would literally not be participating if not for the use of dragon/alien pheromones, a love potion, or mind control, guess what, that's not sex, that's fucking rape! You've invented SciFi or Fantasy fucking roofies!! Congratulations, your prize is everyone hating you when you portray this as romantic and sexy and totally normal and fine!!!!
Learn what consent is, motherfuckers! Or all your favorite characters you want the audience to like will literally canonically be rapists!
