I am absolutely obsessed with the Mitfords, especially Jessica (who I met and who complimented me on a review I wrote of one of her books and I almost DIIIEEEDD yes I’m bragging because it is the most awesome thing that ever happened to me). Her memoir, Hons and Rebels (sometimes published as Sisters and Rebels), is…

So women are just collateral damage in a rapist’s journey to adulthood?
