Fair enough. But in this case I was responding to a post which stated flatly that Paglia had said rape was about sex, no further argument, so a flatly stated response seemed appropriate. If somebody wants to present Paglia's reasons for saying rape is about sex rather than power, I'd be happy to take a crack at refuting them. (Love your analogy.
