Sexual abuse of *any* kind is more about power and force than it is about sex.
Whether it's in the context of domestic violence, street violence, or mind
control, it's all about power. The perpetrators often (usually) have deep
feelings of either insecurity or overblown self-worth, and use sex as a weapon
to assert their superiority. As women move more and more into traditional
"male" roles in society, we can expect increasing reports of men being
sexually harrassed by women. The case June cites is probably not really an
instance of a woman raping a man, however, because I suspect that the male
"accomplice" was the instigator and had actually forced the woman to seduce
her victims. I'm not challenging the overall theme of June's post, of
course--far from it; I agree thoroughly with her comments.
