[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]what sort of rape is "good"? somebody explain to me please?

he is not talking about degrees of rape.  He is actually referring to women LYING about being raped in order to get an abortion.  "legitimate" rape means a rape that actually occurred, and was "forcible".

So he's not saying rape is good, he is saying women cry rape and are liars.  [/quote]

No, you are wrong.  He and several Republicans are trying very hard to differentiate "date rape" or "domestic rape" (e.g. spouse on spouse or significant other on significant other) from other rape.  This is what they mean by forcible (e.g. a husband cannot forcibly rape a wife or a date cannot forcibly rape their companion of the night).

Yes, they are trying to split hairs.  Rape is wrong and there should be no attempt to try to qualify rape.  A sexual act where one party is not voluntarily participating is rape and it is wrong.

And I'm a man, one that's disgusted by this type of posturing.[/quote]
