Uh... making plans to fulfill a stranger's or a friend's or an ex's rape/abduction/bondage fantasies? Like I told this guy, you might want to have some proof that the encounter was consensual in case things go south.

A jury must decide whether it believes a woman who says she was viciously assaulted for five hours, or the accused, who says he offered his former co-worker a fantasy.

David Michael Gendreau, 41, has pleaded not guilty to charges of sexual assault and unlawful confinement.... [Prosecutor Tracy Davis said] Gendreau made sexual advances to the 39-year-old woman, whom he had once dated. When those advances were rejected, he handcuffed her behind her back, duct taped her ankles and raped her three times over five hours, court heard. The prosecutor said Gendreau also threatened to kill her if she tried to escape or told anyone. It was only after the assailant fell asleep that the victim—still wearing handcuffs behind her back and naked from the waist down—was able to escape and run to a neighbour's home for help in -30Cweather....

Defence lawyer Jack Kelly said it was the woman who made up a story about sexual assault for revenge when she was told by Gendreau he had a girlfriend who had slept with him in the same bed the previous night.

For the record: I'm not buying Gendreau's account of what happened. A true gentleman would naturally inform his violent-NSA-fantasy-sex partner that he has got a girlfriend, of course, but a gentleman would do so before (most gentlemanly) or after (less gentlemanly) their violent-NSA-fantasy-sex-fulfillment session, not during (ungentlemanly). And while I'm in favor of like-minded kinksters getting together to fulfill each other's fantasies—violent or otherwise—the onus is on doers-of-consensual-violence to obtain unambiguous consent from their willing "victims" and, if they're smart, document proof of consent before breaking out the handcuffs and duct tape. The alternative is having guys running around raping people and then getting off by claiming, hey, I offered her a fantasy and she accepted!

And we can't have that. Lock Gendreau up, please.
