  I hope my fellow feminists will not be too hard on me, but isn't this business of accepting a "settlement" tantamount to prostitution?
    Women who accept "settlements" prostitute their cherished feminist beliefs. By submitting to sex they prostitute themselves. Then by taking the money and carrying on, they essentially become prostitutes.
  
    It's certainly understandable sexually liberated actresses would not want to jeopardize their glamorous, lucrative careers by making a big deal about one or two or three sexual occasions. The work ethic is surely very powerful. But if folks have no higher ethic than the work ethic, aren't they no better than wage slaves and, in these cases, sex slaves?
  
    Further, Tarantino's fantasy the sexual abuse of his girlfriend was merely something that only happened in the 1950's is delusion and hypocrisy. See the swamp?
