Reddit currently has a thread asking for stories from people who have sexually assaulted someone and how they feel about it now and what they think was going on in their heads at the time.. it is fascinating, though as you can imagine there are quite a number of problem comments, some vile stories, and all in all, it could be seriously upsetting for readers.

Oh, my God! I haven’t clicked over there (yet?), but tell me there’s a trigger warning on that kind of a thing.
Most of my “encounters” with people who have done that sort of thing (re: both my assualts and others’) aren’t aware that what they’ve done “counts” as molestation. To read a collection of people aware must be both horrific and fascinating.
Should be a trigger warning. I guess it goes without saying. I read two of the stories, which were only second-hand, and that was enough. I’ve been lucky enough to escape any sort of assault so far in my life, but I still can’t tolerate hearing about that kind of stuff.

Renee – Done. It’s really bothering me that rapists feel they can confess to rape in a public forum without any apparent fear of negative consequences.
Although, having dipped into the thread, it’s not as quite horrific as I expected. There are a fair few stories along the lines of ‘I almost did something awful, then I realised what I was doing, and now I always ask for consent’.
Oh god. I can’t stop looking. My story is not there though close. I now have lots to share with my therapist, maybe one day ill share it with the people who have assaulted me. thanks for sharing.
