Heartbreak & Heroines
Kynn created a RPG called Heartbreak & Heroines, and used Kickstarter to get $3000 in funding in 48 hours. Over on LJ, Jack posted his response to his ex's success, in two minds because he's glad someone he knows did something cool, Kynn raped him. A couple days later, alexandraerin posts as well, expressing dismay at Kynn's behavior.

Jack posts Tweets from Kynn and later, emails,. At some point, the Kickstart for the RPG is canceled.

Some responses are laudable. Others, not so much.

ETA: Kynn tried to get a new name on RPG post-ban.

ETA2: Elf has a post about it.

ETA3: Kynn denies the rape happened.

Amen to all of that. I'm glad I haven't personally encountered anyone outright saying "oh, if they were in a D/s relationship then it couldn't be rape" because then my brain would explode or something sticky like that. The whole breast-touching thing skeeved me out as much as the rape* because it all comes together in this whole ugly bundle of fuck-yer-boundaries that is so horrible IDEK what to do except go DO NOT WANT and scrub my brain out with fanfic and bleach in between attempts to engage.

*not saying their impact on Jack was equivalent, just that they carry close to the same weight for me in terms of hearing about boundary-abuse
