    Often used to explain away violence in a relationship, defenses of “role playing” or “rough sex” have gained notoriety in recent decadeshttps://nyti.ms/2FXykER

        She liked it rough is a defense strategy that has been used for years. The normalization of this happened when the 50shades fantasy hit the screen. Women laughed and thought Grey was hot. No he was an abuser and took pleasure in that abuse. This is not sex its sadism.

        It is true that some women love rough sex i.e. S&M, Bondage, etc. It seems the women accusing Schneiderman may have conveniently forgotten they enjoyed it. The payoffs to drag him down? Just follow the money trail back to Trump. #politics

        Would the tone of your post and your favorable judgment be the same if this were news about Trump instead? Just curious.

        Shame on you Democrats. Here is example a man who clams he is defender of women who get got with his own violence. How about saying we need to clean our own house?

        “Toxic masculinity,” has been coined as the cause of all suffering, the ruination of all that is good in nature. Yet, we dream of, worship and are irresistibly drawn to fantasy/fairy tale/comic book HEROES in hopes they will erase all of our challenges, problems and ailments.

        It is troubling that these women chose this particular time to come forth with their allegations. Something doesn't smell right.

        It’s actually an old legal defense. Victorian rape cases defended it as a “consent to violence”. #sameasiteverwas #misogyny

        Its abundantly clear to civil moral peoples that this kind've role playing to begin with stems from a Underlying mental issue and if you cannot deduce this you have a Fallacy in your deliberations then to use it as a excuse for domestic violence shows a Sociopathic mindset
