...knew full well what was wrong with this woman, and I could treat her, probably as well as anyone. But treating her condition, which was chronic patellofemoral pain, would test the mettle of patient and surgeon. What we have doesn't work very well nor very quickly. The swelling takes months to go down, the muscles take even longer to strengthen. Good patients often complain, "It was better before we started," in desperation or anger, before they see improvement. But with plenty of therapy, braces, exercises and one or two operations, this knee does improve. It's often tough going...

There isn't enough evidence yet to determine the long-term effects of artificially delayed puberty, but the FDA has noted no serious side effects in the nearly 20 years hormone blockers have been used in the U.S. to treat early-onset puberty in the short term. Although some U.S. studies show that interrupting puberty can weaken bone density, preliminary findings by the medical center of the Free University in Amsterdam, which has prescribed hormone blockers for about 80 children since 1987, don't suggest any such problems.

MacKinnon’s interconnected and empirically well-documented points about violence, male dominance, and social construction of sexuality led her to explain that women’s unequal place in a male-dominated society means that we can’t just treat “consent” as black and white. This argument has the nuance the Crimson lacks. Take the case of MacKinnon’s former client, Linda Boreman (better known as Linda Lovelace), of “Deep Throat” fame. Here is a woman who was beaten, raped, and prostituted...
