...Holly Idelson tried to be fair in allowing Timothy Keating to defend the recent Pi Eta newsletter. Mr. Keating's apology of the infamous letter is, however, totally inadequate. First of all, saying that this was a private publication does not excuse the fact that it had plenty of rapist remarks...
...otherwise laudatory article criticizing the Pi Eta Club Newsletter which began "Before we get in any discussion about the amazing rounding of private parts some poor suspecting fat load is going to take this Saturday night by your huge and erect penis..." This is not simply sexist. This is "rapist," or "pro-rape" (I note that Ms. Idelson did make a passing reference to rape imagery). The link between violence and male sexuality, which is precisely the operative factor in rape, is sickeningly, terrifyingly obvious here.

One newly popular approach, sometimes dubbed chemical castration, uses a drug called Depo-Provera,* which sharply diminishes sex drive in men by reducing their production of testosterone. The drug gained national attention last summer when a Texas jury sentenced Rapist Joseph Frank Smith to ten years' probation instead of prison after he volunteered to undergo Depo-Provera therapy. Smith entered the nation's largest program at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. The program has 150 patients, 80% of them on parole and probation; nearly half are taking Depo-Provera...
