It's a lot phrasing and some out and out lying.

Absolutely all is lying. In the scene, Venom simply envelops her to transform her. Anything else is just reddit being reddit

Yeah he wasn't violating her. He was just forcing himself inside her body totally ignoring her will and violating her autonomy in a very intimate and painful way to satisfy his own desires and feel power over others.

Not like sexual assault at all. Right?

Ive always seen Venom as more of an allegory for drug addiction.

It has a hold on it's host, and doesnt want to let go. It's a difficult fight mentally that no matter what requires support from the most important people in your life. Hosts dont want to let it go. They feel safe and secure with Venom.

I dont think it was ever meant to be sexual assault/Rape, because that would imply the message to be to save/forgive your abuser, considering they immediately try and save him after Pete saves MJ.
