Message-ID: <165@hocse.UUCP> Date: Fri, 7-Sep-84 01:14:46 EDT Article-I.D.: hocse.165 Posted: Fri Sep 7 01:14:46 1984 Date-Received: Sun, 16-Sep-84 11:51:27 EDT Organization: AT&T Information Systems Labs, Holmdel NJ Lines: 19 If I had a nickel for every person in this discussion group that asserts "rape is not a sex crime, it is a crime of violence," I'd be rich. Is this intended to imply that since violence is common during bank robberies that bank robberies have nothing to do with money? The sort of articles that have been posted to the net of the "rape is not sex" variety involve a rather superficial analysis of rape. Rape is 100% involved with sex, and preventing rape seems impossible without a clear understanding of its motives and nature.
