Why do feminists think that Warren Ferrell advocates date rape?

When it is clear that most normal people don't consider a situation like that to be rape?

"Was I raped?"

https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20151...

Update:

Would any feminists care to join in here??

Update 3:

The deleted question was a girl asking if she was raped. She had a couple beers at a party. A guy was flirting with her. They went somewhere private to make out. She was turned on and said she didn't want to have sex, but proceeded to make out with him and did not stop him from undressing her. They had sex even though it went against her morals and voiced that to him. Not one person answering considered that to be rape. She was seduced and did something she didn't want to do

Update 4:

But she did it, nonetheless.

Update 5:

The full quote in question from W.F. in context can be read here: https://m.reddit.com/r/MensRights/comments/13e97m/...

    His speech at Toronto in no way advocated rape. Feminists rely heavily on censorship and misinformation which is also why they reported that question.

    Warren Farrell used to be a feminist until his feminist wife broke up with him and then he became a a hater of feminists - likely because of her. Not only did he talk about date rape and how exciting it was but he even wrote that incest was not so bad. This guy is NO friend of women but he has some really screwed up ideas I think even you would not agree with.

    Here is a quote about incest:

    "When I get my most glowing positive cases, 6 out of 200,” says Farrell, “the incest is part of the family’s open, sensual style of life, wherein sex is an outgrowth of warmth and affection. It is more likely that the father has good sex with his wife, and his wife is likely to know and approve — and in one or two cases to join in."

    Are you seriously OK with father and mother having sex with their child? Seriously?

    Warren Farrell is someone who broke away from the social conditioning and propaganda of feminism. Of course they are going to call him every vile thing in the book. He is a threat to their group cohesion and public appearance cause if feminism is this supposedly all around good thing then why would anyone break away from it?

    If he broke away from feminism and is allowed to be considered a stand up person then the average person is going to start having doubts about feminism and that poses a threat towards feminism's financial capital and continued existence.

    The question was deleted. Can you provide a link that includes the quotes that have been alleged to refer to rape or date rape, in full context, not cherry picked, and preferably from a source that at least pretends or tries to keep blatant bias out of it?

    They're feminists. They make up their own facts.
