Interesting responses. It seems that most of us are on the same page; I would be interested to see if anyone has written a scene with sexual violence and why they did it. I do think that, whilst haunting and unpleasant, it can add if handled well; I thought the way it was done in the English version of Girl with the Dragon Tattoo did add to the story for me moreso than if it had just been stated.
Personally though, I could never bring myself to write something like that. It would be so immensely difficult to handle properly, and I do think that only very certain storylines would ever require a mention of it let alone trying to do something more graphic. I have never even written a sex scene so I would not even try this.
