Couldn't agree more, Rhiannon!

It's disgusting that so many people can still think its a woman's fault if she gets raped. Would it be my fault, then, if I was robbed because I was carrying a wallet?

"The number of recorded rapes of women in 2004/5 was 12,867 - up 4% on the year before - although police estimate that just 15% of rapes come to their attention. Only 6% of reported rapes result in a conviction."

It's mayhem here at work at the mo as we have a film crew from Central News South coming to interview my colleague Antonia who has been asked to respond to this issue for the evening bulletin. Film crew expected in 45 minutes. God, I love working for a women's organisation.
