Found a printout of 1994 soc.feminism posting by Janis Cortese: "I KNOW we're in danger six ways from zero. I KNOW we're abused and raped and hated. But NO "Look how bad we have it" article in Ms. Magazine has EVER made me feel empowered like seeing Counselor Troi kick the hell out of the fellow who was trying to mentally rape her in Star Trek."
