Last week, after a debate on amending the Tennessee constitution to say that it doesn’t guarantee the right to abortion, state Sen. Doug Henry (D) stood up and reflected on how rape has changed:
Rape, ladies and gentlemen, is not today what rape was. Rape, when I was learning these things, was the violation of a chaste woman, against her will, by some party not her spouse. Today it’s simply, “Let’s don’t go forward with this act.“

One nasty old man's opinion...
Interesting as Henry was born in 1926 and is now 81 years old. He just hasn't caught up yet or he might be to late. What's sad is the people that he represents have a man who thinks this is the 40's next he'll say woman should only be in the kitchen and the bed room and not allowed to own property or vote. Talk about bringing back the past this guy is living in the past. He should talk to some of this fellow Republicans who are hiring prostitutes, molesting kids and many have raped woman without being punished. Even our President well before he became President raped a woman and when she went to file a complaint she was killed because yes George was going to run for President. Now I guess that's now legal as far as Doug Henry is concerned because the crime was committed by the now President.
