I've never taken 'Rape Me' to be a literal song about rape. Especially considering the sarcastic/dark sense of humor and use of metaphor that goes through most of his songs. And I've always found it funny when they do happy sad songs or sad happy songs also... oh well, whatever, nevermind.
It's a shame that Nirvana is 'to blame' for lame false-depressed emo bands and Nickelbacks out there... the ones who likes all the pretty songs, and they like to sing along, like to shoot their guns. But they know not what it means.
