Hi, I respect your point of view but I will have to disagree that it’s rape. Yes Yashiro made a comment to stop bc he feels like throwing up, but you fail to point out that in the following chapter he’s telling Doumeki to do it harder, to make it hurt. Doumeki tells Yashiro no he won’t do it ,and ask him to acknowledge that he’s still enjoying it, even without all that. What Yashiro is asking Doumeki to stop doing is being kind, to stop touching him in a tender way. Hes not used to having “nice” sex, or being touched with true passion or desire. The men he’s used to having sex w want to dominate him to make him submit to the pain they are giving him. The reason he felt “safe” with Doumeki’s impotence is bc then his come ons won’t work on him, no matter how “slutty” he acts, or how he provokes him, there’s no chance that he will reciprocate and treat him like a “human toilet”, bc to Yashiro there’s no other way to have sex. In other words, he doesn’t want “normal” or “ nice “ sex, bc he’s not used to it and doesn’t feel he deserves it, but he also doesn’t want Doumeki to become just another man to treat him like shit, bc he actually cares for him and what he thinks of him. That upsets him bc those thoughts never concerned him bf. The rough sex he’s used to is to cope like everyone is saying; think about it as him reclaiming his abuse. It’s as if he were saying ‘haha, you can’t hurt me, that’s the way I like it anyways’ and liking that nice sex with Doumeki shatters that defense, exposing his true feelings and pain.That he doesn’t like it, it hurts like hell, it always hurt him and what happened to him as a child beyond sucked(for lack of better words) and scarred him deeply. I hope to made sense and perhaps made you want to go back a re-read it and look at it from a different perspective. To just reduce it to “it’s rape”, you lose out on this great manga with complex and interesting characters. Just my two cents
