Women in the Military More Likely to Be Traumatized by Sexual Assault Than Combat

Just to clarify the "violation of one's body" and "a violation of the persons very being" were from my definition, not Shell's. I believe what Shell is getting at is the distinction between penile and non-penile penetration. Many jurisdictions do make a distinction between these two, though they typically carry the same weight.
