I’ve never understood how a man could
rape a woman.
I’ve never understood how a man could
violate a woman despite her protests,
pleadings, cries and screams.
You have to be a soulless fucking monster,
evil and heartless as a goddamned demon
to attack and harm a woman like that,
to inflict emotional scars on her that I
imagine last for her entire life.
In my opinion, a rape is in a way worse than
a murder.
When murdered, you don’t have to live
with the anguish for the rest of your life.
And were I able to change the laws, I’d
make the penalty for rape as severe as
that of murder.
