So he used the condom to conceal his DNA...then left her with the condom...?
And then she was coherent enough to insert a tampon correctly? Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't that require a bit of finesse?

Maybe he just put the tampon back in.

Or, wait... did he fuck her with the tampon still in? That's not how it works!

Now that's a gentlemanly rapist! He not only used a condom, but he also sealed it inside of her with a tampon so that she wouldn't lose it and to preserve more of his DNA for a future forensic investigation!

No I think the tampon was in there the whole time. Like, he fucked it deeper into her? Somehow? I'm under the impression the tampon never left the vagina during sex.

Some rapists will use condoms. They may think rape is okay, but they could also be competent enough to not want to catch anything.

I guess that makes sense.

Do they usually leave the condom in the vagina afterward, though?
 
It's possible that the tampon made it more likely for the condom to be pulled off. Otherwise I think it's pretty unlikely for it to a. slip off and b. get lost.
I don't know, there's just so much "technically possible, but rather unlikely" stuff going on here. I can't imagine having so many different things in my vagina that I can't get them out and have to ask someone to do it, then get surprised when they find something unexpected. I'm not an expert on vaginas though.

It would never occur to me to just ask a friend to do that for me, were I ever in such a situation in the first place.

Do they subscribe to the belief that vaginas don't tighten up back after sex? Wonder why she didn't reach inside herself in the first place.

Honestly, I'm pretty sure that unless you're really, really retarded, fishing things out of your vagina is pretty simple to do yourself.. You really shouldn't need a friend, which just fortifies the idea that she wanted an audience for her staged reveal

There was a firestorm over an article released by xojane contributor called "My Former Friend's Death Was a Blessing." saying that it was better that her mentally ill friend was dead. The firestorm forced xojane to retract it and issue an apology for it.
the apology is here http://www.xojane.com/relationships/my-former-friends-death-was-a-blessing
the saved copy of the article is here: https://web.archive.org/web/2016051...nships/my-former-friends-death-was-a-blessing
It sounds horrible to say, but her death wasn't a tragedy, her life was. Her sister died when she was in college. Schizoaffective disorder robbed her of reaching her potential.

Leah would never be one of those people. What would the rest of her life been like? She would have either been institutionalized or a major burden on her family. There was just no way she would have survived on her own. Drowning to death was relatively painless compared to what she had to endure in life.

Reading the original article, and then seeing how the author is convinced she's being "misunderstood" and that's why people are angry, I'm like, oh no, I understand you perfectly. And that's why I think you're a terrible, selfish human being.

So wait. Did the angry tampon and condom riddled author admit to participating in a felony? Did I read that wrong or is she really that stupid?

what.

edit: from the comments on the tampon-fishing rape article, one of the Atheism+ blockbot people shows up to froth at the mouth about Christina Hoff Sommers. so does somebody who apparently only registered to do the same:

I was in contact with xoJane about legality and the possibility of using a pseudonym before this came out. I spent two weeks thinking it over and ultimately told them they could use my real name. I posted my reasoning below, but here it is again:

"1. I chose not to remain anonymous because doing so would further the culture of silence around sexual assault. There are already a number of people who believe my story is fictional. I have a feeling that number would be a lot higher if I wrote this anonymously. I wanted my story to be tangible -- to let people know that it is a real alternative, not a fiction reserved for film and literature. This was not an attempt to portray myself as a hero, but as a real person with a real story of vengeance."

edit: Emily has another story, although not on xojane.

Aaron broke out in blisters on our first day in Seattle. Months later, I would learn that I had contracted oral herpes and unknowingly passed it on to Aaron when I gave him head. I had already started staying away from prostitution, viewing my primary asset as contaminated.

Well, what is a "rapist"? In many cases it's not this evil nasty old guy lurking in the bushes waiting for unsuspecting females to prey upon. Mostly it's either a matter of "getting carried away in the moment", or "mistakenly believing the woman wants to have sex". In this case, it looks like a mixture of both? It's difficult to judge.

Now, I can somewhat understand beating him up. Had I been a friend, I would have tried to talk her out of it, but no harsh judgements on that from me.

What I do very much judge her for however is writing an article about it five years later and glorifying violence against her perceived rapist as a good thing to the point where she's practically inciting other people to do the same. This is not how we do things in this part of the world, and for very good reasons. A functioning system of law is what separates us from barbarism and street violence. Dismissing it because it's "too much hassle" (she didn't even *try* for fuck's sake) is incredibly egotistical and self-centred and shows a complete lack of respect for the law. You don't just go around ignoring the law whenever it's inconvenient. No, not even when you're raped.

I'm still having trouble believing she both needed a friend to fish a tampon out of her snatch and had a condom in there unawares, amongst other things. Vaginas aren't exactly hammerspace or black holes.

Unless she has one of those mythical "hot-dog-in-a-hallway" vaginas.
