What about the man juice part of RAPE? Todd Akin

 WE'RE WATCHING YOUR VOTE. LOVE YOURSELF.

RAPE is considered to be such an ugly subject until we allow it to live and thrive because we don't want to be exposed to ugly? RAPE is now part of the 2012 political race.

    I wrote a poem that placed in a national poetry contest: "Every Three Minutes" which dealt with the subject of rape. Now, it seems we must be informed as women what the word RAPE means. Todd Akin has brought to our vocabulary the words 'Legitimate Rape' and 'False Rape' and a little-known fact that a woman can 'shut down a pregnancy' resulting from rape. Even the rapist is laughing. But the Christians are standing with Akins. I say, "Someone needs to walk a mile in someone else's shoes." Evangelism is DEAD and was murdered by the GOP in 2012.

    Will women be silent and stand by for the sake of Party loyalty and let a man tell her WHEN she is raped. I'm sorry to say this and I know it may be offensive; but a woman's vote for this man is an assault on women by women. SHAME!!

    This is a subject women should take the lid off of and empower themselves and their daughters to guard against as they live and grow. Understanding the beast is the first step and that those targeted are not to blame. Know the truth, know the myth. Teach the truth and teach the myth.

Myths: Rape is sex, Women incite men to rape, there is a "right way" to respond to a rape situation, etc. Here is a site where you can separate fact from myth: http://www.d.umn.edu/cla/faculty/jhamlin/3925/myths.html

I encourage every woman, every friend of a woman, and mothers to download this page to keep and refer to at least once a year to remind yourself that rape is real and still happens. To be informed is just another part of loving yourself.

    To hear someone, say that a woman's body makes some kind of JUICES to prevent pregnancy during a rape is the height of ignorance and a sick depraved mind. What JUICE power does a woman have and can activate while someone is entering her private parts against her will. If any juice can be activated, it should be LYE to burn the hell out of the man's penis.

    MUSCULAR CHRISTIANITY I hate this phrase every time I hear it on the intro to a Christian broadcast. Why are all of these muscular men blaming women for everything. Don't the rapist have JUICES!!! Oh, this is one case where men will say women are stronger than them. Women JUICES can trump men Juices. How sickening!!!!

    Has Obama made the men on the Right feel so impotent until they have to beat up on women to feel like men again? There is a WAR ON WOMEN. The emasculated man is kicking the dog when he gets home and yes, it is women. This would be domestic violence since definitions are so important.

As with all of the evils in the world, be wary of how this subject is approached so you will not instill anxiety and paranoia in our young girls. Awareness is a key weapon in the battle against rape.
