It’s been a while since I did a giant block of text answer to an Ask Onii-chan so let’s do that. NO PICTURES, MOTHERFUCKERS!

Hey there Onii-chan.

What’s the deal with all the rape? Hopefully you read that in a Jerry Seinfeld voice. But yeah, why is rape such a popular trope in hentai? Wouldn’t it be more appealing to people that their narrative proxy not be a rapist? Of course, after one round of rape the women seem okay with it I guess, but still what the hell? For that matter, why are the dudes in hentai ugly bastards when they are bothering to show them at all? Not all are of course, but there seems to be a certain predilection to this being the case. Maybe I’m just perusing the kinds of hentai that gravitate towards this trope? I’ve also noticed this in japanese porn vs every other kind of porn too. The chicks will say “no” and “don’t.” But every other kind of chick will say “yes” and “more.” I don’t get it.

Hope all is well,

While certainly people have become more willing to fuck than a few decades ago, there’s also a large chunk of extremely detached youths in the current generation who end up as virgins until higher ages. The virgins are a bit of a different problem in Japanese culture and one that’s bleeding into the west more and more, where the value of a relationship doesn’t end up above the desire to have one.
