In a parallel example, would you go so far as to say that Nordic peoples shouldn’t get Valknut tattoos because that symbol also happens to be utilized by a large number of white supremist groups?
Uh, yes. Every reasonable person here in :sweden: is extremely careful about getting any norse symbols as tattoos given how so many have been co-opted by nazis.

People have the idea that Slaanesh is about rape because they wouldn't willingly gently caress / get hosed by hermaphrodite lobster daemons and bondage cows.

It's not.

It's about being a cosmic sensation sexstronaut, so far gone past moral concepts of pleasure that you're soul-loving the universe, injecting the distilled liquor of reality into your eyeballs. But you're doing it because you want to.

Rape isn't on Slaanesh's menu. She feeds on your consent. She wants your enthusiastic consent. She needs your frenetic, insatiably thirsty consent before her greater lobster claw gazelle-daddy daemon can make you feel better than you ever imagined.

She's all about tempting people to give into her progressively outrageous and exotic pleasures, not inflicting them on non-consenting bystanders. Weird sex isn't what makes Slaanesh tick - it's giving in to the temptation to gently caress her abominations instead of destroying them.

My understanding is that it's more than sex or even sensation, but excess itself. So that can be food, money, sex, hubris, w/e. I vaguely recall one of Slaneesh's realms is guarded by a bunch of Se7en/Dante's Inferno style challenges and one of them is that it's the best food ever but it's also the remains of the other people who stopped to eat.

The ultimate pursuit of excess is also cool because of how that ties into Slaneesh's relationship with eldar. IDK I think the fluff there is p cool.

Still don't want to collect the army though because yeah I don't need sex-lobster-bull models.

Yeah she's definitely defined by excess and desire, not just of sex but all forms of indulgence

The titty-snakes and bikini bulls are probably the easiest way to shorthand that roundabout concept into miniatures form, and it was visionary that early GW didn't just make it a conventional succubus faction from the start.

It's a fluffy modelling choice. There are a couple of knives in the regular Tactical Marine kit.

Same reason you can give Guardsmen guns with bayonets even though it has no practical application in the rules.

The part of me that wants all my models to be WYSIWYG will probably prevent me from using the knives.

Concerning WYSIWYG: A local neckbeard told me on my 2nd ever game of 40k: “You should only field visually accurate armies or people will think you’re trying to cheat”. He then proceeded to throw a minor tantrum every time I rolled well, and the local store manager kept saying: “It’s just a game Phil, calm down”. It was a 30 power game with hardly any units and it still felt like it took hours. Awful. Do other people take WYSIWYG really seriously? I can understand it in tournaments, but are people gonna get on my case because I’m asking them to pretend that my predator has all lascannons rather than heavy bolters?

HORSE'S ASS

Most normal people will not give a poo poo about that kind of thing and Phil sounds like an arse. If you never have the right model for anything and it's an unpainted mass of grey that's a 'that guy' red flag, but as a newbie who wants to try out different stuff before buying it, don't worry.

IIRC Space Marine standard equipment includes a combat knife. It's theoretically what they hit people with in melee if you don't have a dedicated CCW on them.
