I have spent the last week defending this article. So grateful for all the comments and yes of course, the femme fatale exists. Of course there are multiple perspectives. Please read my other articles where I champion men. My concern as a social commentator in this zeroed in perspective, was for the young women I researched who got hurt so bad they really thought giving up was their wisest choice. I thought the repercussions down the line if this trend continued could really change the fabric of society. Thank you for reading Rick. At 65 I imagine you have a few stories to tell. xx
