At that stage, the question is only 'did they do it'. I told you a few days ago about a case now appealling the notion that a female rape victim can sue for civil rights damages. Well, as to vaginal rape, no question. Women are the only gender equipped for that crime. Or of course, any crime against a child.
Every victim has a unique status.
This attempt to expand the criminal law to highlight some social or political agenda is terribly misguided. Furthermore, it is asking for the thought police to emerge. If I intended to kill you, no one has to establish why. Finally, if hate for a particular group or sex played a role, that information comes in during the punishment phase of a trial. That is when we look at the defendant's character, record and propensities.
