This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard!

OK, there is much debate about abortion, but that's not what I want to get into.

It's the insurance rates that costs more for "cute" girls than for the others.
How do you fairly decide who's cute? Attractiveness is different to different people.
I don't think it should be legal to go on the "gut feeling" of the insurance salesman on whether anyone is "cute or not"!
What happened to Equality?????

Hmmmmmmmmm wonder how attractive women would rate this guy. This group of men need a class of some sort. It is not just "attractive" women who get raped. Rape is not about sex, rape is about power which is why so many elderly and mentally disabled women get raped, and most are so ashamed or scared to report it. Also beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Exactly, on allpoints, Darla. Many of the younger women/girls are also too ashamed.

Truthfully I had kind of hoped that the whole "she asked for it" train of thought had come to an end. Guess these guys don't know yet that NO MEANS NO.

I'm pretty sure some smart gal could win a law suit in this case. Dumb is correct!

Not surprised at anything that is aimed at or about women anymore...this 'cute' girl thing is another decision made by an 'ugly' person, group, insurance company.

This stuped way of thinking makes me furious.
One of our cashiers at my workplace stated that she wasn't afraid living alone as she was too old to attract a rapist. That's when I told her my 86 year old grandmother had been raped and beaten.
This is the mindset that too many people have. Even the women of Afghanistan who wear totally covering burghas with a lace screen over their eyes are raped, especially if they are arrested for some minor deed like exposing an ankle or being seen in public with out a male family escort.
