From his short story Three Worlds Collide:

*When our children legalized rape, we thought that the Future had gone wrong."

Akon's mouth hung open. "You were that prude?"

The Confessor shook his head. "There aren't any words," the Confessor said, "there aren't any words at all, by which I ever could explain to you. No, it wasn't prudery. It was a memory of disaster."

"Um," Akon said. He was trying not to smile. "I'm trying to visualize what sort of disaster could have been caused by too much nonconsensual sex -"

"Give it up, my lord," the Confessor said. He was finally laughing, but there was an undertone of pain to it.

Fucking rationalists, man.

    daily reminder that you don't actually have to include rape in your fantasy stories even if "rape was everpresent during war" or some shit

    like, it's your choice what is it that you're showcasing
