        Rape has very little to do with sex and everything to do with power. I don't know what has happened to Germaine Greer, but the world has moved on without her.

        I’d never heard of her. Now I wish I hadn’t. Supremely ridiculous and hurtful to those who have suffered.

        Being controversial to try and be relevant again. She's had nothing worthwhile to contribute for years.

        She’s never had much worthwhile to say. She accidentally stumbled on Feminism when she plagiarised Betty Friedan just to be controversial. Time to stop giving oxygen to her rants.

        It’s actually considered a crime against humanity by the International Criminal Court. Rape is rarely ever about the sexual act but control. Rape is an act of violence. Sex is consensual.

        Thank you Germaine for some realism. I have to smh at all the wealthy, glamorous "victims" who suddenly, after decades, recognise their victimhood after it becomes fashionable. In fact, sweethearts, if you haven't been subject to Weinstein's nastiness you obviously ain't that hot

        If that's your opinion about me fine. Interested to know your opinion of the crowds that stone and burn a woman to death for attending a Christian service. Is that ok then? Or are they and me travellers in the same boat. Or are you just a simpleton
