The ISKCON Governing Body Commission has recommended to the BBT trustees that we insert endnotes or appendices into Srila Prabhupada'92s books to explain statements Srila Prabhupada makes in Srimad-Bhagavatam 4.25.41, 4.25.42, and 4.26.26 concerning a woman'92s attitude towards the aggressive advances of a man and towards a man who is '93expert at rape.'94 The GBC has also recommended that the endnotes or appendices explain '93other such statements.'94

The BBT directors, at their annual meeting in June of 2008, considered these recommendations and decided to turn them down.
