11. Have you ever raped anyone in real life?
-No. And tbh, I find it very problematic to include a question like this. It almost makes it sound as if we found real-life rape acceptable.
Thanks, Thomas, and others who've recently answered the survey.

Thomas, I wanted to respond to your comment, above, regarding question 11.

You may notice that virtually no one has responded with a "yes" to question 11. Perhaps THAT is the point of the question in the survey! While many people might believe that those of us who fantasize about rape are, in fact, rapists... this survey strongly suggests otherwise. I understand, certainly, that a cynic might say that perhaps some people just are not answering that question honestly. Of course that is a possibility, but one that is very difficult to avoid. I think we'll see that there is a lot of valuable information contained in the collection of data here. And I suspect that the data is largely accurate, that most of us have NOT, and would not, commit rape in real life.

I hope this helps you understand why I included the question.
