At a party, a gym, anywhere the lighting is dim. Along the shore, down in the subway, during an overnight stay. On Christmas morning, by the fire where she's warming... She is the hunted. Amidst war, conflict, and revolution, in the confessional during absolution. For retribution or initiation, after a movie premiere's celebration. In the pool, the jacuzzi, when drugged and woozy... She is the hunted. When did the female species become a personal plaything? An implicit right of lords, masters, and kings? A gratification tool to sadists & seducers, ego-fed athletes, even film producers? She is the hunted... in this cathedral of misogyny, an unholy ground where hands can never come clean. At what age, Malusha, did your little boy become a ******

Malusha Malkovna was the mother of Vladimir the Great, who in c. 978 infamously ***** Ragnhild, the prince of Polotsk's daughter.
