When women are revelling in their promiscuity, the question of whether or not the virtue actually deserves to be protected is quite salient. The Romans believed prostitutes could not be raped, only stolen from. I agree.

Rape is the theft of womanly virtue and it's repugnant for that reason. Women who have no virtue cannot be raped, only assaulted.

  • Lord Wilcox

It's a good point: if women are openly promiscuous, rape is theft of services, not really any different from their normal sexual activity except for the lack of consent.

Food for thought.
