Jake Baker, a quiet, bespectacled University of Michigan sophomore, has just learned that a little creative writing on the Internet can lead to jail -- at least, when it's a fantasy about raping, torturing and murdering a real person. Baker, 20, was arrested in Ann Arbor for having posted a lurid sex-murder fantasy on the Usenet newsgroup alt.sex.stories last November. "Torture is foreplay, rape is romance, snuff (killing) is climax," one of Baker's messages read. Ordinarily, the story might never drawn outside attention, but Baker got into trouble for giving his fictional victim the name of a real...
...sexual act is no typology of gender roles. A look at the sexual act can only show that McGuire's is a limited, particular and constructed understanding. For example, do we say that the penis breaks in while the vagina remains passive and receptive, a silent victim of rape? Gender roles simply do not partition as neatly as McGuire suggests...
Paglia sees a sexual wasteland populated by Sandra Dee girl-women who cry wolf at the first wolf whistle, and by clueless men emasculated by feminism's stern dictates. The longest new essay, ``No Law in the Arena,'' is a panorama of hot-button topics: rape, harassment, pornography, abortion.

There are also quieter pieces, notably a loving memoir of four homosexual friends who helped shape her sensibility. But it's silly to ask this brainy pipshriek to calm...
...campus every imaginable youthful type: a track star on an athletic scholarship (Omar Epps), who is convinced he is being exploited; his very smart, very pretty girlfriend (Tyra Banks), who is coolly intent on using the system to her advantage; a young white woman (Kristy Swanson), victimized by date rape, tempted by lesbianism, ultimately redeemed and betrayed by her idealistic political activism; a socially maladroit loner (Michael Rapaport), who finds a dank spiritual home with the local neo- Nazis. The rapper Ice Cube is on hand as a perpetual graduate student and guru to the black activists. Laurence Fishburne represents...
...jurors should not be told of a defendant's past behavior that is considered too inflammatory for a jury to handle. In all states past crimes are inadmissable as evidence to show that the defendant was predisposed to commit the crime. Thus the judge in William Kennedy Smith's rape trial refused to allow testimony from three young women who each claimed that Smith had assaulted them under similar circumstances. "We fear that the jury will not be as careful in sifting the evidence if they know that the accused has committed other crimes," says Professor Stephen Gillers...
