[] I just realized something. There have been several women on the network who have revealed that they were raped, and so there are probably quite a few more who were raped but didn't want to talk about it in this kind of a forum. It seems to me that this makes it pretty likely that there are several men on the network who have raped women. I don't know what the moral of this is. I was just reading net.women when this occured to me, disturbing me enough to write this.

Moreover, it is a statistical near certainty that a woman *you* know (that is, a friend of yours) has been raped. This bothered me a lot when I first learned about it and I think it still does. I don't knoww hwat the comparable statistics are for men (rapists). Norman
