If it is any consolation those politicians did bring awareness and education about rape into focus. I bet Henry Aldridge now knows a woman can get pregnant from being raped.Savvyworkinggalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08159197609419858161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34866775.post-91246049899799751212013-05-05T11:37:17.446-05:002013-05-05T11:37:17.446-05:00Catherine,

I too have experienced a couple of uncomfortable situations in my own back yard that men can't understand. Both my husband and I love the outdoors, but there are many things he has done by himself that I could never do because I feared for my safety.Savvyworkinggalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08159197609419858161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34866775.post-20233428345648405902013-05-05T11:21:53.677-05:002013-05-05T11:21:53.677-05:00Darlene,

She could hear his friends laughing in the background. She pressed charges against him, but the case didn't go anywhere because his friends testified she was promiscuous. That happened over 30 years ago and I am sure she still carries the scars. FYI – she ended up moving out of our state and is now a successful divorce lawyer. <br />Savvyworkinggalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08159197609419858161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34866775.post-70305294673566247332013-05-05T11:11:17.474-05:002013-05-05T11:11:17.474-05:00Thanks Webb, your support is appreciated.Thanks Webb, your support is appreciated.Savvyworkinggalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08159197609419858161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34866775.post-3478425646555068082013-05-05T11:08:44.558-05:002013-05-05T11:08:44.558-05:00Kita,

During April, we focus heavily on Denim day. We always bring a pair of jeans to our events and stuff the pockets with donations. As well as tell the story of why there has to be a denim day. Thank you for putting this out there in the universe.

I have a son and know he will be raised correctly, he will be raised to be a real man. <br /><br />it's really sad when we have policitican who tell woman what to do with their bodies and say some women wanted it. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34866775.post-7727098381384831412013-04-25T13:13:36.874-05:002013-04-25T13:13:36.874-05:00I wrote this post last night on my blog http://cat...I wrote this post last night on my blog http://catherinegacad.com/2013/04/24/why-sons-are-superior/ and was encouraged to see your post honoring rape victims today.

The statistics are staggering and I am sure not many people are aware of those numbers.<br /><br />I think the punishment for rape is not nearly severe enough.
