It is a crime to have sex with someone who does not consent to it. Simple, right?
Not so much.
Over the years - hell, over the past few months - nuts have tried to argue that everything but agreeing to have sex is agreeing to have sex.
Among them: she was dressing slutty, she worked a dirty job, she thought she had rights, she dared to leave her home at night.
Real rape victims are beaten to a bloody pulp. They were virgins. There were religious and oh-so-pure. The real crime is that they were tainted by sex, not that it was against their will.
And they certainly aren’t married, says Phyllis Schlafly:
By getting married, the woman has consented to sex, and I don’t think you can call it rape.
People - rape is rape. There isn’t one kind of victim, and there isn’t one kind of rapist.

It’s sad how many people try to justify this crime. No one asks, or deserves, to be raped period.
