Like I said, for me, there was no eroticism in those scenes whatsoever.
Perhaps the eroticism in those scenes for other readers stems from something psychological (and no I am not making any sorts of judgements about peoples psychological status). Read the links below...

Twain's use of "nigger" was mordant and satirical. Martin's use of rape verges on erotic at times, and that is what so many people have a problem with--not that there is rape, but that it's treated as entertainment more than it is a horrific physical and psychological assault.
Death to the Regressives of the GOP and the TeaParty. No mercy for Conservatives. Burn them all at the stake for the hateful satanists they are.

How is that a violent rape? At worst it would be statutory rape.

The wedding night is statutory. I would describe the later rapes as fairly violent.

"Looks like" is this case meaning "explicitly stated to be that way"?
