I read this book around 30 years ago and recall regaling my 12 year old brother about the futuristic female utopian tale in which the only male featured was a rapist. I felt bad for him. I would consider myself (and himself) a feminist. This does not cut it. It is disturbing to me how many fans of book there still are and that the only thing that they complain about are the typos!...one star for effort
