I know that some claim that our individual selves are somehow social property...
but for the most part, I think most people are of the view that we are self owners, and don't give that self ownership up on crossing some line, whether its a line on a map or an actual threshold.
so in that respect, rape is always on private property.
Incidentally, in the rail head towns and the mining camps of the not so wild wild west, sure, young attached males drank, gambled and fought...
but families, wives and daughters were less at risk than they are in many areas now, and went about their lives and business un molested.
