Unfortunately baby rape is not uncommon in South Africa, a country that is disintegrating at a rapid rate.

Bignosemousie, someone JUST told me that baby rape is not uncommon due to the fear of AIDS. How fortunate to be confirmed that that seems to be the case. Thank you.

Living in this country is not for the faint of heart. Rape and murder are the order of the day and that's why over a million white South Africans have already fled the country and the rest of us are ransacking our ancestry in the hopes of claiming a foreign passport. Having done a census a few years ago amongst my friends and acquaintances, I discovered only two of us have reached adulthood ...
