The reverse sexism in evidence on this thread is astounding. Largely, the women have absolutely no empathy with this male victim of coerced sex, but if their bosses at the office hit them up this way, well, there would be hell to pay, lawyers to pay, and the justice system may even exact its pound of flesh too. What a sick, damned society we’ve become when the moral imagination is stunted this way. O.K., let me get this straight: only women can claim rape as a crime.

If I were not a happily married man, I think otherwise I’d want to be a monk, given the overall ethical I.Q. of so many women out there now.

What have we, the hated Caucasian males done that is so awful to reap this harvest of bitter fruit? Have we treated women so awfully that we deserve such scorn?

I have one thing to say to the women of our civilization: you think you’ve been wronged and that men deserve neither respect nor compassion? Try living in an Islamic culture for a few years with the kinds of male pigs from that culture. By the way, many years ago before I met my wife and before I had left the Jesuit seminary, my wife was nearly date-raped by a wealthy Saudi male in Washington, D.C. Fortunately, my wife was not drunk and she gave him a good, hard shove out her apartment door and then dead-bolted the door.

Ladies, grow up and expand your minds. Your Leftist, femminist, socialist profs in college poisoned your minds. Men can indeed be made victims of sexual power plays and even coerced sex. Bah, I don’t even know why I waste bandwidth arguing this point…
