I will add that I received a really disturbing bit of pro-rape (seriously!?) email from a Mr. John Napolitano in response to this cartoon this morning. An excerpt (warning--this is really horrible, so please don't read if it will upset you... it certainly upset me):
But do you understand that the rapist could be another (male) earthquake victim. pushed over the edge from being denied the aid they need?No comment. That really soured my morning.But most women's advocacy is full of this sort of narrow short sightedness, which does nothing but make another part of the people feel less than equal. I sometimes wonder if this isn't the real aim.
The end result is the furthering of the "Women's Agenda at the expense of Humanity.....
