Rape has to do with violence and power. There's no point in arguing about it. You are simply wrong.

Anyway, I have very little interest in discussing rape. I was only pointing out that your little nickname for Slave applies to you as well.

I truly don't know what it means and am curious. Is it an address? Is that a military tag?

My response was making reference to, and light of, my exchange with PP earlier today.

As for the location thing, because of the timing, I thought it perhaps had something to do with barely's purportedly poorly calibrated gaydar.

The they reunited for two concert tours in the late 1990's (sans the original bassist), and are now making the first new music since 1991 (again, sans the original bassist, which is why I say that I hope it doesn't suck). And, like SD, I can't wait. I just hope that Dave Navarro doesn't insist on doing any vocals.

Were you absent from crim law or just sleeping the day they taught you the elements of the crime or rape? The issue is consent. End of story.

All the talk about power, violence and any other factor you think is the motivation for a rape is psycho-socio-pathology. But it has nothing to do with the crime. I don't agree that it is about power. It is about violence and consent.

The interplay between sex and power has nothing to do with rape if there is consent. It is that simple. Go dust off your Emmanuel's and brush up on your Crim Law, 'kay?

I am not optimistic. I don't think a clean-and-sober (and older) Janes can ever come close to the fucked-up brilliance of Nothing's Shocking. I saw them in Seattle on that tour. Dropped acid on the way there. During the opening act (some nondescript skate punk act), I was beginning to think that was a mistake. Cramped seats, too many people, slightly negative vibe. Then Jane's came on and fucking blew my mind. Perry actually got in trouble with the FBI that night. It was early into the Bush I regime, and Perry said to the crowd, "Who's going to be the first one to shoot President Bush? I guess I'll have to do it." Followed, of course, by an incindiary "Pigs in Zen."

Paigow - sorry I high-jacked your board today. I am sure that tomorrow the politics board will liven up, then I will give you your board back, 'kay? Don't pout sweety, it makes your ass look bigger.

I thought that point was established when JFF said that women don't notice that their nipples are erect when they are talking to men because they are concentrating on what they are saying. I always know when my high beams are on.

Or Barbi Benton.

Well, in Barbi Benton's case, she might very well not notice that her own nipples are erect, for more than one reason.

Interesting theory . . .

This fact pattern, while loathsome and probably worthy of an EEO investigation or employment discrimination suit, is probably would not be enough for a sexual assault charge. Sexual harrassment, yes, sexual assault, no. Back her into a corner and don't let her leave the office until she's made you happy, then the senario has changed with regard to her ability to consent.

You are wrong that power has nothing to do with rape, and that's that.

Not my point. Power does NOT equal true consent. There were two sides to her (JFF's) equation - I was having fun with the second one.

I don't know, I saw them both times they came through here, and they kicked ass both time (though they did let Navarro do a couple of songs off his solo records, which I am not that fond of).

They can still put on an amazing show. Even if they never put out another new song, their discography speaks for itself, and you hear Janes in just about everything that came after them.

I ask because you certainly talk out your ass a lot.

Touchy about the topic of good sex are you, seb? I noticed that you post excessively about all your fantasies about other women's bodies, women other than your wife, that is. Could it be that you are starting to rethink the marriage decision?

Don't fret, sebby. With enough plastic surgery, they can make her look completely different. It will give you the feeling you're having sex with someone else and you'll be fine.
