Julian Assange Captured by World's Dating Police |
2010-12-08 |
The Sisters are not too impressed with Naomi When a Feminist Trivializes Rape Dear Interpol: As a longtime feminist activist, I have been overjoyed to discover your new commitment to engaging in global manhunts to arrest and prosecute men who behave like narcissistic jerks to women they are dating. I see that Julian Assange is accused of having consensual sex with two women, in one case using a condom that broke. I understand, from the alleged victims' complaints to the media, that Assange is also accused of texting and tweeting in the taxi on the way to one of the women's apartments while on a date, and, disgustingly enough, 'reading stories about himself online' in the cab. Both alleged victims are also upset that he began dating a second woman while still being in a relationship with the first. (Of course, as a feminist, I am also pleased that the alleged victims are using feminist-inspired rhetoric and law to assuage what appears to be personal injured feelings. That's what our brave suffragette foremothers intended!). Thank you again, Interpol. I know you will now prioritize the global manhunt for 1.3 million guys I have heard similar complaints about personally in the US alone -- there is an entire fraternity at the University of Texas you need to arrest immediately. I also have firsthand information that John Smith in Providence, Rhode Island, went to a stag party -- with strippers! -- that his girlfriend wanted him to skip, and that Mark Levinson in Corvallis, Oregon, did not notice that his girlfriend got a really cute new haircut -- even though it was THREE INCHES SHORTER. Terrorists. Go get 'em, Interpol! Yours gratefully, Naomi Wolf |

#6 I assume that the Progressive evaluation of accusations of rape against one of their own is -- "They should have been asking for it." |

#3 Funny how the shoe would be precisely on the other foot had Assange been an enemy of the left. His rape would have been him living out his imperialist tendencies, and the governments of the world were right to bring him in on whatever charges would stick, blah blah blah. Like Al Capone went to prison for tax evasion. |
