EuroScorpio on January 31, 2012 at 09:56 AM said: Actually a question: Is it true that USA is second to worse in the world when it comes to number of molested women as I have heard somewhere...? If this has any connection with reality, then I can only say shame on USA and wish for movement in this awful matter, and that Diana will have the time and energy to multiply herself by initiating followers... Peace \o/ S

Elaine on January 11, 2012 at 06:04 PM said: Hello Diana, thank you for your work against porn and how it degrades women. Here is an unpleasant exchange I had with a man who claims to have done interviews for your book "The Politics of Rape" (Here is an excerpt from this thread) "I know a good deal about rape, having interviewed rapists for "The Politics of Rape," by Diana Russell, and having volunteered with Project Sanctuary and other groups." Occupy Mendocino General Assembly Meeting of January 7, 2012 On Jan 8, 2012, at 6:02 PM, John Fremont wrote : Facilitator, Rick; secretary, Linda; timer, Adrienne; stacker, Herb 1. Having been arrested for having child porn on his computer, Miles is in jail, and we wish the best for him. Bail was set at $60M and he has a Jan. 18 court appearance. The key to the Senior Center was passed on to Syd. If individuals want to send letters of support for Miles, they should do so personally, not as Occupy Mendocino. A resolution was passed that Occupy Mendocino will take no sides—positive or negative—on Miles’ arrest On 1/8/2012 6:21 PM, Elaine and Ed wrote: On Jan 8, 2012, at 6:02 PM, John Fremont wrote: "Having been arrested for having child porn on his computer, Miles is in jail, and we wish the best for him.

I DONT THINK SO!!!! Who is WE? What about the children used in the porn he got his ya ya's watching? Do "we wish the best for them? I wont be one of the "individuals sending letters of support" to anyone that uses child porn. How disgusting and supporting a user of child porn is even MORE disgusting. It will be a cold day in hell before I EVER go to one of your meetings. Elaine Charkowski On Jan 8, 2012, at 6:50 PM, John Fremont wrote: Elaine, he is innocent until proven guilty. He has done much good in the community, and I hope the charges are baseless. Child pornography is disgusting, but not nearly so much as rape and murder (except where condoned by generals or scripture). I will neither condemn nor support Miles without knowing the facts. I recommend that you withhold judgement as well. Forgive me for saying this Elaine, but there are better ways to voice opposition than anger and outrage. Finally, had you been at the general assembly, you would have had the opportunity to convince people to support a different approach. (Elaines response) On Jan 8, 2012, at 6:50 PM, John Fremont wrote: "Forgive me for saying this Elaine, but there are better ways to voice opposition than anger and outrage." Oh yeah! How else to react to adults who get their ya yas watching child porn? Dont give me instructions on how to react. Who do you think you are? Elaine On 1/8/2012 9:06 PM, Elaine and Ed wrote: On Jan 8, 2012, at 6:50 PM, John Fremont wrote: "Elaine, he is innocent until proven guilty." According to YOUR post "Having been arrested for having child porn on his computer, Miles is in jail" Doesn't sound too innocent to me. How did the child porn get on his computer? By accident? Also who are you to come up with arbitrary moral judgements such as "Child pornography is disgusting, but not nearly so much as rape. ". . What do you know about rape-or how a child feels to get fucked by an adult -which IS RAPE since a child can not consent to an adult act. Elaine Jan 9 John Fremont wrote: Elaine, many innocent people are arrested for various crimes. I do not know if Miles is guilty or innocent, but the computers containing the pornography were donated to the Democratic Club by a number of different people. ***Abhorrent as it is, child pornography does not necessarily involve forced entry, or rape. I know a good deal about rape, having interviewed rapists for "The Politics of Rape," by Diana Russell, and having volunteered with Project Sanctuary and other groups. Perhaps your anger results from having been raped as a child or adult. If so, I understand, and if you have not discussed your experience with a qualified therapist, I suggest you do so. Best wishes, John On Jan 9, John wrote "Abhorrent as it is, child pornography does not necessarily involve forced entry, or rape." So you approve of "just" molesting children as long as the guy doesn't stick his dick in them? Also spare me your sanctimonious, amateur psycho-babble and false concern ("I understand") by analyzing me. This tactic of attempted insult is as old as the hills and is often done by men trying to act superior to a woman. You need some new material. Also, YOU see a therapist if YOU think child molesting is OK as long as penetrating dicks arent involved. Elaine

lepa mladjenovic on January 9, 2012 at 05:31 PM said: dear beautifull Diana, again and again i read you, talk about you and follow your political fantastic work that has changed this world to be a more joyful place for women. I was in Belgium recently and feminists there still talk about Tribunal on crimes against women proudly, and me too as if i was there. Your talk on femicide on youtube is excellent, i pass it on.

Lisa on December 1, 2011 at 07:12 AM said: Diana, thank you for your dedication and your devotion to this work. I have had your book Against Pornography on my shelf for years, picking it up to read parts of it. It keeps me awake to the climate we live in when I start to 'fall asleep' again. I so want to be come more involved in raising consciousness about porn, but am so concerned I will be 'taken down' internally. I don't know how you have done it for 40 years. How do you remain sane? Truly, that is my question every time I pick up your work, read some, feel that need to do something with this, get involved with stopping this...I stop myself because I don't know if I can handle it. How have you handled all the darkness???
