>>She left out "or beaten" part<<

Apparently there is a new version of reality out there, which is that men don't rape or beat women, it's all a sick twisted feminist plot to tear down men.

Tell it to the cops, the paramedics, the emergency room workers, and the women themselves.

How many minutes before somebody starts ranting about how women victimize men?

How many minutes before someone claims that women never lie about rape?

Men (as a group) don't rape or beat women (as a group).

Some (individual) men rape or beat some (individual) women.

The feminist shtick has been to portray all males as partially guilty of the despicable crimes of a few males.

Why this is considered enlightened when applies to males as a group, as opposed to blacks as a group, does not bear logical scrutiny.

Speaking as a male, I'd be quite happy to participate on the firing squad for any convicted male rapist. But I deeply resent that somehow my sex preconvicts me of criminality.

BTW, some women DO victimize some men: emotionally, sexually, financially, even physically. So what? I don't blame any individual woman for the horrible acts of others of their sex. Why do so many women want to lump all men together as oppressors?

Men do rape and beat women. Women rape and beat women. Women beat and hurt men. Men hurt and rape men. We are a fallen world.

I work where the rubber meets the road on these issues...the severely abused and tortured. I don't think that anyone is denying that there is rape of women by men. I think that the stats need to be looked at. There is plenty of unreported rape...and if you think women's rapes are underreported, wait until you see the estimates of male rapes versus reported status.

When a very inhuman and paradoxically very human issue like rape is politicized for the ends of people with overt and covert agendas, the human pain and guilt and innocence are sacrificed on the altar of power. This post addresses how the manipulation occurs.

She left out or beaten part

My sister was beaten. Badly. By me.

Checkers. She's not very good. Now, statistically, I defy anyone to say that my trouncing of my sister at a board game does not qualify as an additional "rape or beating" victim for the nazis.

These statistics are completely useless and collected simply to push a political agenda.
