Right now, at this moment, you are sharing a planet with a man in Sierra Leone who, upon looking at a 2 1/2-month-old girl, not only wondered "I wonder whether I could fit in there", but then decided he just had to find out.
Not only that, but right now, at this moment, that man walks free, unburdened by a society that in cases of rape prefers to blame the victim, as Nick Kristof of the New York Times details in the linked article.
As it turns out, the baby in question died as a result.
This has been your horrifying thought of the day.
