The Women's Temple

The lines between free love and rape often became very, very blurry. Many women were under extreme social pressure in forms that it wouldn't really make a lot of sense to us today. Men would use these struggle sessions to break women down, emotionally marshalling the rest of the group to their side if the women were too selfish or repressed to have sex with them. It was a reason that the feminist movement took on a new dimension of militancy in the 19 seventies.
