blondychik1, I believe it's how it was supposed to feel...cause that's what it was. Serial killers get their real/best/genuine sexual-type release from killing. It's the most intimate interaction they have probably. And kudos to the show's creators (cast, crew, writers, etc) for giving that an accurate portrayal! (Even if the image of pale Foyet all hovering over Hotch whilst slowing sliding his knife in and out of the beloved agent will forever creep me out, lol!)
...As for what happened between Foyet and Hotch...hmm...I'm not completely sure. Either Foyet raping Hotch or stabbing him in the genitals works to make his point about "he stabs because he's impotent" being false really. If he stabs, thus (presumably) leaving Hotch impotent than it's a way of taunting..."Will you stab others as a substitute for sex now that you can't get it up? ...No? Well neither do I and so I've proved you wrong!" If it's a rape Foyet's sadistically proven Hotch wrong by completing a sex act. Either would qualify as a sexual assault and, if the show does what it should, we'll see whatever happened start to back-up on Hotch. (Much like the Henkel case did with Reid - flashbacks, etc.)
My guess is it was a stabbing in the genitals...after all Foyet slid the knife into Hotch right after the statement in an area that seems rather below the belt (though not inner thigh, the femoral artery's there and it'd be too risky a stab). If there were a rape you'd expect to hear an unbuckling of a belt or some slightly clearer indication that Foyet took that extra sexually sadistic step. Though, honestly, I rather hope the show goes all out, is really brave, and does go with Hotch having been raped. Not that I want that to happen - I love Hotch and the poor guy's been through more than enough - but I'd be really impressed with the creators' willingness to go there.
