So many times women get
Fri, 10/24/2008 - 08:51 — Anonymous (not verified)So many times women get assaulted and just try to put it behind them. If a woman acts in a non-puritan way, she must be guilty. As a young woman growing up, my father explained to me that even if all parties are naked, a woman has the right to change her mind and the man must respect it. Do we live in a civilized society? Women need protection from men who don't know how to respect a woman's right to say no. Now Ms. Mangum gets all of the intellectuals to chastize her, how can she possibly defend herself. Should we be like Jordan? Should she now commit suicide?
Don't support liars

Let's stop looking at trainwreck lives and do something positive.
Don't go here. A message of silent dismissal is what this deserves.
