Rape today seems to have meanings it lacked 50, even 25, years ago. Sometimes it’s semi-consensual (”date rape” covers everything from forced or violent to “hey, I’m not in the mood”). But if rape is violent or forced, the chances of its resulting in pregnancy are practically nonexistent. That’s no old wives’ tale. Of course, making that fact public is the last thing NARAL will allow. In attempting to reduce the number of abortions, Conservatives have compromised on rape and incest when at least in the case of the former no compromise was necessary.
As a 25 yr military man...and a 20 year minister of the Gospel...there are a LOT of things that are different from 50 or even 25 years ago. A lot of them are bad...but the definitions of "rape" isn't one of them buddy. My mom was date raped at a teen party back in the 60's. Your kind of stinking thinking wasn't called rape back then...it was called the girl playing hard to get...because you didn't get her drunk enough. Her story to me is why I am a victim advocate with military rape victims. It happens....yet people such as yourself (and I meet them all the time) want to call it something besides what it is.
I've got a daughter. She's 4. Me and my hunting buddies (her two brothers) would call that rape today. No...not everything is as great as it was in the good old days. I'm glad my black friends can drink at the same fountain as me here in Texas...and I'm glad some perv would go to jail today for raping my mom...instead of being the BMOC.
“Sometimes it’s semi-consensual”
I’m sure that’s how Clinton regarded every one of his.
I always hate it when we always bury our own while the body is still warm. Meanwhile, it’s ok when the cold-blooded ex-senator from Illinois votes to allow babies surviving abortions to die without medical intervention.
I don’t know anything about this Aiken guy, but if he withdraws, I’d go down shouting about the creepy amoral president’s abortion record.
