Dear Mr. Van Lente,
Coercing someone into having sex with you by pretending to be someone else is rape—ethically and legally.
Coercing someone into making out with you by pretending to be someone else is also sexual assault—again, ethically and legally—although it’s not technically rape.
Neither is funny.
Sincerely,
Rachel Edidin
