I pick around and skim some topics, so perhaps that is why I am questioning it and may not see her as a fully consenting partner.

And I did not mean to say she wasn't consenting...just bringing up the idea of some perhaps "consenting" not because they want to, but because they think it's something they should do. I do not mean to throw that on her totally, just responding to her post. Perhaps I should have been more objective. Sorry if it offended anyone.

I do not know her as well as you do, which is why I am questioning. Not just 'her,' I am questioning in general, because I truly do view that as abuse and wonder where the line is drawn, if not before that point.
