Feminists are right when they say that all sex is rape if you think about it logically
The state ideology in feminist countries is that if you coerce or manipulate a woman into having sex with you then she didn’t really consent and it’s considered rape. Now consider the fact that it’s transparently obvious to everybody that all men drastically change their behavior and personality...

This is often brought up as a silly thing feminists say. But do you understand where this phrase comes from and what is precisely meant by it? Allow me to explain.
Andrea Dworkin
In her lifetime, Andrea Dworkin remained a controversial feminist figure due to her views which were sometimes regarded as ‘sex-negative’. However, regardless of whether you agree with her overall conclusions, many of her critiques concerning the problematic aspects of society prove to be quite valuable. Her most prominent text, Intercourse, is notable for its coarse and direct language, as well as the liberal use of literature to illustrate certain points.

Heterosexual Intercourse as Rape
According to Dworkin, popular conceptions of heterosexual intercourse often normalize forms of hostile sexism that subordinate women and remove their agency. Typically, women are viewed as sexual prey that is to be conquered by the dominant male who, in doing so, achieves possession of the woman. Dworkin expresses this slightly more crudely when she writes that intercourse is commonly conceptualized as:
Dworkin adds that often the act is “taken to be an act of invasion and ownership undertaken in a mode of predation” (79-80).“a form of possession or an act of possession in which, during which, because of which, a man inhabits a woman, physically covering her and overwhelming her and at the same time penetrating her; and this physical relation to her—over her and inside her—is his possession of her. He has her, or, when he is done, he has had her. By thrusting into her, he takes her over. His thrusting into her is taken to be her capitulation to him as a conqueror; it is a physical surrender of herself to him; he occupies and rules her, expresses his elemental dominance over her, by his possession of her in the” (79) act.
What Is Andrea Dworkin Saying?
Heterosexual intercourse as an enduring institution positions men as the "fucker" and women as the "fucked". There can be no true consent in a society where women are always subordinated to men, thus all heterosexual intercourse is performed under coercion.
Does Andrea Dworkin Believe That All Heterosexual Sex Is Rape?
Well, no. The phrase is often miscredit to her, though her theory ultimately points to that conclusion. Under patriarchy, there can be no consensual heterosexual sex. Whether Dworkin's theory holds true or not depends on whether you believe there exists a patriarchy oppressing women.
