I am the one who decided to start this forum after the long lasting RavishU forum finally went down. I was a moderator there in its final days hoping to make some changes to the place. Now I am trying to implement the ideas I had for RavishU (and more) here. I hope to build a community here that does not only consume rape fantasies, but discusses and talks about them. I want to be able to share my stories with others and I hope to have real conversations about them that go beyond "I liked it." I want to be able to ask my readers questions about what they think about certain aspects of a story and get a bunch of answers from different people within a few days. That is what the Ravishment Academy is for.
I chose the name Claire when I first entered the rape fantasy community because I needed a name for my account and Claire was the name of the protagonist of Record Chaser, the first story I ever started to write that I hope to bring to a conclusion here. Not very creative, I know. I am mostly interested in reading and writing stories, but @Vela Nanashi encourages me to give role playing a chance too.

And when it comes to the question what the appeal of rape fantasy is to me... It's neither imagining myself as the victim nor indulging in the power fantasy of being the rapist which I assume to be the two main reasons why people enjoy rape fantasies. I like to read stories that feel real to me, that make me feel deeply for the victim. When a story makes me think "That poor girl, this is so fucked up..." but at the same time I can't help but think "But it is kind of hot...", then I end up "enjoying" it the most. Enduring that tension between "Reading this feels wrong" and "I can't stop reading" is what draws me to rape fantasy. And that tension is what I try to induce in others as an author. So if you ever find yourself reading one of my stories and afterwards that meme "Not my proudest fap..." goes through your mind, I have achieved my goal and it would be the biggest compliment for me if you let me know.
