Can anybody present a moral argument against being able to sexually assault people in video games that doesn't also apply to being able to murder people in video games?

I tend to agree with the TC that it feels arbitrary that depictions of murder and violence are accepted and sometimes glorified in the media while sexual assault is a much bigger taboo. I'm open to having my mind changed tho.

Im kinda here.

I mean, Rockstars Bully had a sexual harassment mechanic in that you can slap random girls asses. How was that received?

Like, the people have actually been raped is the best defense so far. Though I wager people have been violently assaulted or shot before too. And are still alive. Or people have been affected by murder, as its not just the victim that suffers a loss.
