Rape Victim: Hilary put me through Hell

He explained that essay. It was a critique of gender roles and he admits it was horribly written. When you take the quote out of context, it looks bad but the statement itself was not bad. You are comparing apples and oranges. Hillary destroyed that little girl. Make of it what you will but she is no feminist.

She had to defend her client but she did not have to smear a little girl who got raped. That is really ugly.

When the little girl's testimony is crucial, not attacking her credibility would make it hard if not impossible to win the case.

Feminism has changed a lot since 1975.

Sorry but in my world there is no excuse for a so-called "feminist" to destroy a 12 year old child who has been raped.

There are no gray areas here. A 12 year-old rape victim is not fair game for any decent human being.

What essay? Please post a link.

You can find it. His campaign dismisses it as a hippie-era relic aimed at changing sex roles.

Our view of rape, and rape laws, have also changed a lot since 1975.

I would not say they dismiss it. I saw an interview with him about it and he was apologetic and said that it was horrible writing and pretty embarrassing. It was also written 40 years ago.

You think this was "traditional gender roles"?

"A man goes home and masturbates his typical fantasy. A woman on her knees, a woman tied up, a woman abused."

"A woman enjoys intercourse with her man — as she fantasizes being raped by 3 men simultaneously."

"Have you ever looked at the Stag, Man, Hero, Tough magazines on the shelf of your local bookstore? Do you know why the newspaper with the articles like “Girl 12 raped by 14 men” sell so well? To what in us are they appealing?"

Feminists were already trying to fight those horrific smear tactics that were used in court to destroy and discredit rape victims. I am sorry but Hillary Clinton is not a good person. Regardless of the law at the time, she did not behave like a human being with a heart.

And Hillary Clinton defended this person 40 years ago, correct?

Saying it it was an attempt at a Fifty Shades of Grey thing is pretty dismissive.

+1000. People on here seem to have a gross misunderstanding of what criminal defense attorneys do. Even if Clinton actually knew her client was guilty, she still had a duty to zealously represent him.

Oh, dear Lord.
If the thought of protecting a 12-year-old who was brutally raped has changed since 1975, then we must have been a terribly callous nation in ’75.
I was a young adult then. It has NOT changed that dramatically.
In 1975, the rape of a 12-year-old was outrageous and unacceptable. Period.

He was critiquing those roles, NOT supporting them. And he did it poorly and admitted it.
