I can't give you an answer as to how to combat the supposed consensual aspect...it really is B.S. <br /><br />I know that after my rape/marital rapes...I swore that no man was ever going to do that to me again. Protect myself...you betcha...and I'd do what I had to! 8 )Deb Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03088053403304682239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503866255319422123.post-22080842483615187862011-10-23T07:57:05.916-04:002011-10-23T07:57:05.916-04:00I never reported any of my sexual assaults either ...I never reported any of my sexual assaults either - "date rape" they call them now. One assault was by a friend of my boyfriend who thought he had a right to any female, including his own daughter I found out. He definitely should have been reported. Unfortunately, it IS true that quite often these creeps beat the system & the court lets them go. It's a matter of "he said, she said", & "he" always says "she wanted it. It was consensual." How do you fight against that when the cards have always been stacked against women in this male dominated world? Maybe women need to get tough & start having the mindset of protecting themselves - with a weapon that puts the rape issue to rest for all time with their attacker. Be ready to fight at all times, with weapon on hand if possible!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
