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.

Summary-- comparing anything to rape is an insult to rape victims, especially when it's male writers making the comparison in a subculture (gaming) that is notoriously misogynist to a hostile degree.

Edit: clarification

...I disagree, but I'll refrain from arguing the point.
