The MANN ACT was imposed on FLW ("white slavery")
Unfortunately, that cliche grilled cheese sandwich can be arrested
and indicted
He and mistress (a writer and early feminist herself) travelled fom
Wisconsin to Minnesota
The charges were subsequently dropped, while that's apparently where
the "rape " stuff came from
Did FLW make the un p.c. comment ? Fucke if i know
i suppose Sigmund Freud himself ("what do women really want?") would
concede
there indeed are ambivalent-ambiguous human sexual urges (including
"rape")
Rand is mining it to be candidly outrageous and/or to sell books
I've read or heard Ayn herself was sort of forward & horny
There are "dark ages" of all kinds of stuff that ain't p.c. by the
changed, enlightened standards of now
Beth Truman, a first lady of u.s., reportedly didn't allow Jews into
her Missouri home
nevermind Truman's haberdashy partner Jacobs, recognition of Israel,
intergration of military and so forth: social reality isn't static
