That is the story but when he told it to me it started with him seeing VH open for Nugent and ended with "Diamond" David Lee Roth making up all the stats for that night's concert at the art gallery.

It is obvious that the two offenders saw the victim as some one that could be treated as a thing. This is not about sex, it is about power and control. I guess that is what I am getting at. Sex was probably not the hardest thing for the two to get, so that wasn’t the objective. When you hear the jokes being made during the crime, it is the purest contempt.
So, how do you fix that? I’m just shooting rubber bands at the night sky but here are a few ideas: Put women’s studies in high school the curriculum from war heroes to politicians, writers, speakers, activists, revolutionaries and let young people understand that women have been kicking ass in high threat conditions for ages and they are worthy of respect.
Total sex ed in school. Learn how it all works. Learn what the definition of statutory rape is and that it is rape, that date rape is rape, that rape is rape.

I also hate the DC hardcore scene in general (Bad Brains excluded).

I think to a great degree, we humans still divide ourselves into two species, even though we are monotypic. There are males and females. We see them as different and not equal. Things get better when women get more equality. That is a bit obvious, but I think it leads to better results up the road. If it's a man's world, as they say, then men, your world is a poorly run carnage fest.

One of the stranger things in the straightedge scene is the aversion to sex. They think it makes them morally superior, just like everything else they do. That's not to say that straightedge kids don't fuck. This is only a small subgroup.

Nice. I'm actually surprised to hear him talk like that because these days he seems really into all these liberal causes like gay rights and stuff. I wouldn't be surprised if he's now a male feminist too since virtually all militant pro-gay people are feminists as well.

I know Henry Rollins is admired by many here. He's known to be quite liberal on social issues and there have been questions about whether he's a male feminist. His reaction to the Steubenville rape case shows that he is without doubt a feminist.

Also, this guy was raised by his mom. Doesn't it seem like people raised by moms (no dads present) are more empirical?
