MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Rebecca Bradley wrote in a 1992 column that writer and critic Camille Paglia legitimately suggested women play a role in date rape.

Bradley, who is running for a full 10-year term on the court, wrote the column for Marquette University’s student magazine while a student there. It’s the latest of Bradley’s old writings to surface this week, following others that included anti-gay comments.

The liberal group One Wisconsin Now released the latest column Wednesday. In it, Bradley says she intends to expose the feminist movement as largely composed of angry, militant, man-hating lesbians who abhor the traditional family.

Bradley has apologized several times this week for her other writings. Her campaign didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment on the anti-feminism column.
