Audrey: Have you noticed that anyone answered the questions: 1- What would you do if your mother, daughter, sister, niece, girlfriend were rape? 2 - Is there anyone on this forum who has raped someone?</P> And yet the thread about sex offenders carries on!. But all that is pure mental gimnasticks as there has not been any answer first to any of this questions. Only ED said something even when he was joking about it. Whatever is said is as pure talking in the coffe bar. Including mine of course!. Mayka

No culture is immune to the phenomenon of rape - so is EVERY culture rape culture? I never got that one. :/ I do not believe rapists should be forced to be castrated - but I would definitely support those who decided, for the public good (because they might rape again, and wish not to harm anyone else) to do so voluntarily. I apologize deeply for opening this can of worms. You may not believe me, but I was a bit surprised that it has garnered so much attention so far. I don't wish to alienate anyone on this list. And ED, I really do want to say "Thank you" for sharing the article and your thoughts on the subject. It really gives me something to think about. I am delighted that this forum encourages free exchange of ideas. ~Audrey --- In [email protected], "ED" <seacrofter001@...> wrote: > > > > Audrey, > > Which sentiment(s) of Maria do you agree with? > > ~ED
