I believe if you read what I had written correctly you would see that I said Human Being have a proclivity towards rape and I suggested that Neanderthals could also (but there was no certainty). The fact that most female Neanderthals were as strong as Human males is not an argument in and of itself in any given population you have extremes of physicality from People built like Line backer to people built like Hobbits. The same is true of Neanderthals they just scale to a generally larger frame.

Yes, and my post above outlined the sequence of events that would need fall into place in order for Neanderthal genes to persist into modern human populations. That is, after all, the question at hand. While it may be intriguing to speculate on whether Cro-Magnon and Neanderthal had sex that did not result in progeny, that question is of no more practical significance than the question of whether humans and cats had sex 35,000 years ago. Whether with cats or Neanderthals, if perpetuating lineages aren't involved then you can irrefutably imagine whatever kinkiness makes you happy..
