Yes, but it's a rehash from Dibbel as I recall. Rhiannon Bury Casey O'Donnell wrote:
I believe virtual rape was also mentioned in Sherry Turkle's, "Life on the Screen". I may be confusing it with another text though...been a while since I read it.
Cheers. Casey

Kathy,
I wrote a short paper recently on the concept of virtual harm, using virtual rape as the case study.
Here are some of the most relevant sources I used:
Herring, Susan C. (2002) Cyber Violence: Recognizing and Resisting Abuse in Online Environments. Asian Women, vol. 14 (Summer) pp. 187-212
Huff, Chuck, Johnson, Deborah G., and Miller, Keith (2003). 'Virtual Harms and Real Responsibility: A Rape in Cyberspace," [WWW Resource] accessed from http://www.njcc.com/~techsoc/huff.html
Mackinnon, Richard, (1997) "Virtual Rape," Journal of Computer-Mediated Communication, [Online] vol 2. no. 4. March, 1997 accessed from http://www.ascusc.org/jcmc/vol2/issue4/mackinnon.html
And two readings from N. Katherine Hayles that aren't exclusively about virtual rape, but do speak compellingly about the virtual body:
Hayles, N. Katherine. (1996) "Boundary Disputes: Homeostasis, Reflexivity and the Foundations of Cybernetics," in Robert Markley (ed.) Virtual Realities and Their Discontents. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, pp. 11-37.
Hayles, N. Katherine. (1999) "The Condition of Virtuality," in Peter Lunenfeld, (ed.) The Digital Dialectic: New Essays on New Media, Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, pp 68-94.
I hope this is helpful.
Best,
Amanda

AoIRers,
Who writes about virtual rape and sexual harassment other than Julian Dibbell (or people arguing online about the mr bungle case who get their facts from dibbell)?
