- Hi Ron...
-
- I too have heard 100's of times that rape has nothing to
- do with sex.... it is all violence...
-
- And of course that kind of statement is a bunch of garbage
- (and reflects poorly on the thinking processes of those who
- make it). It is often stated by people who adopt opinions
- rather than forming them.
-
- We all have heard the statistics on date rape and how women
- across this country (not all) consider 'pressuring' a woman
- (notice, not men, only women) to have sex, is a form of rape.
-
- These instances have EVERYTHING to do with sex....
-
- Feminists often seen to want it both ways.... rape is pure
- violence.... and then on the other hand, damned near any
- sexual contact is considered rape.
-
- The fact is... rape can be violent... or it can be sexual
- or it can be both...
-
- Try to steer clear of those that would make absolute claims.
- They probably just have an agenda, and could care less about
- facts.
