FOLLOWING her charitable appearance at a US Congress seminar about violence against women last week, Nicole Kidman has been slammed.

By commentators who say her opinion is unworthy because her "sex roles betray women in the real world".

The Independent on Sunday, among others, referred to moments in Kidman's career - she was raped in Dogville, had kinky sex in Eyes Wide Shut and bathed with a minor in Birth - as evidence for her so-called betrayal.
