Excerpt from The Great Weaver Rape Case: A Complete History of the Remarkable Charge of Rape Against J. D. Weaver; With the Verbatim Report of the Testimony of Catharine E. Lahenny and Sarah McNeil
Of all crimes in the catalogue of human frailty, there is none at which a pro perly organized manhood more instinctively revolts than that of a forced com merce between the sexes. To woo as the lion woos his bride is foreign enough to the gentle endearments by which the ties of human love are usually cemented, but to use more than beastly violence in the gratification of passion's fever, is worse than fiendish. Commerce, unless reciprocal, is unnatural, and the love which degenerates into lust is unworthy of the name.
