ORIGINAL: tazzygirl Maybe some high powered congressmen need to be raped... just so they know the utter humiliation of having to go through the reporting process, the rape kits, the giving testimony, the cross examinations, the digging into backgrounds, the finger pointing and snickering. But this is fundamentally the problem in almost any society with the issue of rape, but also other issues relating to women. Most men (and men dominate political decision making), unless they have been sexually assaulted themselves, cannot truly put themselves in the shoes of a woman in that situation. It is fundamentally why male politicians will always trivialize the experience of not only rape, but pregnancy and labor. Not having to actually experience these things makes it oh so very easy for them to be dismissive of these things. Women, on average, are more understanding of the issues that other women face, and understand why both protections, and freedoms are required, but even in the U.S. we are not as influential politically. And the scariest persons of all - conservative women. I was going to say something nasty. Bite my tongue....[>:]
