Well, Fiona, I deduced it from your previous statement:

>> >> >> We live in a unjust world and if either of the two parties come off badly then
>> >> >> they helped to bring the situation on themselves.

'helped to bring the situation on the themselves'? Sounds like the blame game to me.

>> No woman ever deserves to be raped

Really? Tell me: are there any men who deserved to be raped? Or does the absolution only apply to women?

>> And that if you do and you really are raped juries will still see being drunk
>> in many cases as a contributory factor whether they admit it or not.

But Fiona, you yourself have stated that it is a contributory factor. What does 'helped to bring the situation on themselves' mean if not that they contributed to their own rape. You did say 'either of the two parties', so I am presuming that you judge women here as well as men?

>> My morality is not odd ..

>> And also that lovemaking with someone who cares about you is infinitely >> preferable to a drunken fumble with a man who, (possibly), couldn't wait to get >> rid of you the next day.

It's not clear why this is a statement of morality as opposed to personal preference. There are some women who prefer non-committal sex, just as some men prefer non-committal sex. Are you suggesting that such women are 'immoral'? What gives you the right to dictate your morality to these women?

>> My morailty is that my daughters are the most precious things in the world to
>> me and I teach them, as my mother taught me,to put value on themselves and how
>> they are treated.

But sons who risk going to prison after being falsely accused of rape don't factor into this? Doesn't sound very 'moral' to me.
