"If you believe that what people call normal sex is an act of dominance, where a man desires a woman so much that he will use force against her to express his desire, if you believe that’s romantic, that’s the truth about sexual desire, then if someone denounces force in sex it sounds like they’re denouncing sex. If conquest is your mode of understanding sexuality, and the man is supposed to be a predator, and then feminists come along and say, no, sorry, that’s using force, that’s rape - a lot of male writers have drawn the conclusion that I’m saying all sex is rape."

— Andrea Dworkin in an interview in 1997, discussing the accusations directed at her claiming she believed that  ”all sex is rape” (this, of course, being completely inaccurate and a complete misrepresentation of Andrea’s work)
