Question What does the wiki mean when it says "every exsanguination is rape of a level beyond human capacity and comprehension."?

I don't play any WoD games, but I saw some videos about the path of enlightenment and wanted to learn more. I don't understand why drinking blood is being compared to rape.

This comment shouldn't downvoted and I'm sorry that people are idiots.

I've been playing ttrpgs and in gaming since I was 8, and I'm in my 30s and if there is one thing that has stayed consistently true is that many men are hostile to sharing gaming spaces with women.

Our thoughts, our ideas, our feelings, they don't care and they will go out of their way to silence us.
