Richard: Well, she was…

Richard:

Well, she was famous for a few other things, too, as I recall…

IIRC, she championed the notion, along with Catherine Mackinnon, that all heterosexual sense was rape. Got a penis? You’re a rapist.

You don’t recall correctly. Andrea Dworkin never said this. Neither did Catharine MacKinnon. There is no support for the claim anywhere in their writings and they have both explicitly denied that they believe this when asked point-blank.

Just out of curiosity, have you ever read anything by Andrea Dworkin? I mean, actually read it, from beginning to end?
