This is something that's been on my mental list of articles to write.
Someday... "Rape in the U.S. Military"

showed nothing as well.
Put a note on feminist wikiproject (i'm flustered dealing with crashing
computer, new one in mail, and occupying DC, or a day or two anyway,
just long enough to convince them --
well, let's not talk politics... but I do have some sexist pig peace
activists I'll probably be running into... one of whom has a vanity
article on wikipedia... don't get me started...
