I wonder why lesbians aren't beaten up like gay men are. I think it is awful, but I am just curious.

Because women aren't afraid of lesbians?

<<I wonder why lesbians aren't beaten up like gay men are.>>

They come on to women who can just say no. There isn't the need to beat the crap of or kill to prove you're hetero.

I keep thinking back to something that happened 10 years ago. A Vietnamese war bride left her husband in S. Carolina and tried to get home. She still spoke very little English and was wearing only panties and a shirt when she got here. 4 rich college kids offered her a ride, took her to their apartment and raped her. The wealthiest killed her with a knife. Then they stuck her in two garbage bags and dumped her.

3 of the sickies got 5 years and the killer 20 years. This has in a way haunted me. Why are any of them alive? Money talks. But when a person is in trouble the natural reaction is to help. Any normal person, guess no normal people came by, would have called the police and had her taken to a shelter or done that themselves.
