Once Enkidu sleeps with the whore he loses his inner light. All his purety is gone. He has been defiled by lustful touch. Before, the animals came seeking his companionship. They played together, drank from the same streams. He was one with nature. But the whore, by taking his innocence, seized also his child-like joy. Enkidu truly becomes a man, and man is a corrupt thing. There is a true lesson here. Today, you are very horny, you pursue girl, you sleep with girl. After you ejaculate, it all comes to you suddenly, like it came to Enkidu. "What have I done?" The stags flee from you. You forget the hills. Girl wants to cuddle. You feel disgusted.
Now you're a man. Pandora's box has been opened. There comes a desire to expand. Avarice. "I need this." This is why Gilgamesh starts raping the women. It's not even about sex, it's about exerting your power upon nature. Most importantly, herein lies a lesson about civilization. Because in rape civilization is born. Because civilization is exerting your power upon nature. Zeus rapes Europa, from which Minos is born; Minoan Civilization. Zeus rapes Ledo, Helen is born; Trojan War. You need to see this from Greek eyes. The Greeks were experts in reading these things. What did Romulus do after founding Rome? Lead his people in a mass-raping of their female neighbors. In medieval Japan they also had similar tradition: boy would sneak into girl's room and have nonconsensual sex with her. Just another example. All civilizations are born through rape.
Directly after copulation, the devil's laughter is heard
