I really got under a couple coworkers' skin by making that comparison.
I was asked if I'd gotten jabbed yet, I said I didn't condone rape. The room went dead quiet for a second and the coworker who'd asked said she hadn't said anything about rape. I replied "You did, though. That's what this is. I've asserted again and again that I don't consent and I don't want them to insert something into my body just because it would make them feel good, and I'm being told at every turn that I need to just shut up and let it happen. Explain to me how that is not rape?"
They started blustering that those two things aren't comparable at all, sat there for a second, and then got up and left. The other followed in short order. Hope it stuck in their craw for awhile.
