Are you saying that should be the case, or that might be the case in those countries?

I think Egypt is more modernized than a good deal of the ME though.

And, if she was Muslim under Sharia, she'd be punished for being the victim of rape. By the way, no need to apologize for the behavior of primitive, backward-assed societies.

Re: CBS reporter beaten and sexually assaulted
Women were legal chattels of a sort until the early 1970's in Texas. I think it's safe to say Texans still joke about women being responsible for rape.

Did anyone say that reported that got shot in the war a couple years back wasn't culpable at some point?

Re: CBS reporter beaten and sexually assaulted
Yeah, if she wasn't wearing a burqa then that's a bit negligent on her part. And I'm just commenting on her not wearing the burqa here. I've seen many news stories and documentaries where the woman reporter is always wearing one.

Oh what horrible hypocrites we are for not continuing to whine about Michael Ware getting shot undeservedly in the head in a war zone and surviving.
Journalists are targets in a war zone. Women, everywhere.

No, I do not think it should be that way. No fucking way.
All I was saying is that it is that way in some Middle Eastern countries.

...and I know that, but theyre still not Western by any stretch of the imagination.
They are still very much a traditionally Muslim country that has women as a second class citizen required to be dressed in a certain manner. I fully realize they are not a country that would punish a woman for being raped (like Afghanistan, for example).
But I would assume they are a typical ME country in that a rapist of a woman in a state of "undress" (by their standards) in public (ie not wearing a burqa) would not be punished very harshly (by our standards). To be more clear and to even possibly crumble my whole argument, the offender may serve some short jailtime and probation.
Thats just the way it is in the ME and only a very small example of some the insurmountable cultural differences between us and them.
Egypt is a culturally advanced country...only when compared to other ME countries. Which, IMO, isnt saying much.

I check the club daily, but seldom delve in depth. I'm slightly familiar with Trainwreck.

That's contrary to the reports posted here so far. What's your source on that?

This is what I meant when I posted that "sexual assault" has a broad definition. It could have been a dude sticking his pee pee out, guys slapping her ass, kissing her...not neccessarily rape (not that it's not still disgusting, but CBS is feeding into people's imaginations with their story of the events - which is why I think they're up to something). Thanks for the link!

Re: CBS reporter beaten and sexually assaulted
Ms. Logan was released from the hospital today -- five days after the "not a rape" attack on her.
