Well...date rape is something I worry about for my daughter. Whatever the circumstance, if the woman is incapacitated/drugged or forced against her will, it's still rape.
About women "competing" with themselves to the point of being their own worst enemies, in my former capacity as a female exec, I've found this to be true among the women I managed and my female peers. Sometimes it's jealousy, often it's insecurity, other times it's complete incompetency that brings out the worst in some women.
What really grates me, though, is that a confident, assertive woman is seen as a "bitch," while a male can be confident and assertive without being assigned negative labels. Now, that's unfair, and goes along with how we judge moms over dads.
