Can't we all just get along?

I bowed out of the thread and return only to add that I'm reading the book by Helena Kennedy which Francesca R mentioned.
In chapter 8 "The Alchemy of Sex and Violence", Kennedy covers much of the same ground as this thread , ending with this paragraph:-

"I do think that securing justice for women in rape cases will continue to be fraught with difficulties because of the singular nature of the crime and because attitudes in society about sexuality have changed insufficiently. We keep looking for the magic law reform which will fix what may be resistant to change until social attitudes move on."
(From "Just Law" by Baroness Helena Kennedy, Vintage Books, 2004).

Interesting read on this and many other topics. Thanks, Fran.

She.
I am a woman.

1) I am a man, the post where I claimed I were a girl was obviously ironic (you can read my name, right?)

Obviously. It was so obvious, no one saw it as such.

No one saw it as such because it was not as such. His claim was a lie and so is his claim to irony, imvho

Yes, thanks for explaining my response for the class.
