"Well, you can do whatever you want to us, but we're not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America. Gentlemen!"
These rumors and speculations have been around for decades, probably since fraternities started. Some innocent young girl goes to a frat party, has her drink drugged and then is gang raped by a bunch of the fraternity brothers. There is no evidence that this happens, period. Its a PC urban myth created to attack fraternities and what Libs perceive to be a male culture.
Have girls been raped at parties or on campus? Yes. Have they gotten drunk and had sex they would not want to have if they weren’t drunk? Yes. But this idea that frat parties are these rape camps is a PC fantasy.
Not a fan of fraternity life, or sororities, either. But these figures are inflated. The War on Men continues unabated.
Yes. Go back to gender segregated campus housing, no frats.
The good old days.
Just ban penises on campus.
Time to ban Oklahoma State Police?
"Well, you can do whatever you want to us, but we're not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America. Gentlemen!"
There should be no more Fraternities except at Wesleyan.
I’m an advisory for a fraternity. It happens more often than you think.
How about banning rape?
If the Frat raped, then yes... we should ban frats.
Drunk young wimmin who regret their bad personal decisions later when sober and then decide to blame the guy for it when they read about all these other false accusions?
Who of us didn't know young people whose personality changed completely when drinking? That's a reason why why I oppose lowering the legal drinking age.
I will repeat what I posted on another thread on this subject:
There is a young woman Emma Sulkowicz making rounds on MSNBC and PBSs Democracy Now (Amy Goodman) for carrying around a bed mattress to her classes at Columbia to protest that the male student she accused of rape who was determined to be innocent by the school and the police. She claimed that she was raped in her own bed and that the police made a determination that the engagement was consensual.
I saw her interviewed on this to totally sympathetic Amy Goodman PBS and then to Melissa Harris Perry MSNBC,(to no real interviewer) and the scant details that she offers on the incident are not very convincing.
She doesn't describe exactly how she got in HER bed with him or what led to the alleged rape act(or what the act she calls rape even was or when and how she said 'no') .
Recall the case that liberals called a rape where the woman changed her mind in the middle of the actual sexual act. That makes me skeptical of these assertions.
Regardless, she is getting sympathy with this flimsy story.
Columbia Student Will Carry a Mattress Everywhere Until Her Alleged Rapist Is Expelled
Perhaps because these femi-nazi's have dumb downed the definition of rape to include drunken hook-ups that the girl regrets the following day.
And what is it the Queen of fugly hags says about rape-rape?
I thought it was “sexually assault OR HARASSED”.
Which could include having your eyes drawn to parts drawing attention to themselves.
I was in a fraternity. The punch we served was called "grain alcohol punch" by everybody serving or drinking it. There were two ingredients - grain alcohol and punch. There were no drugs or deception. Drink at your risk. Everybody was an adult.
The 1 in 5 number only happens when the activists expand the definition of "sexual assault" to include incidents where a woman felt "intimidated" by a man or was called an inappropriate name, or had somebody make unwelcome flattering comments about their body, etc.
At Weslyan they are forcing the frats to become co-ed. How’s that going to work out, ya think???
” Should we ban frats?”
what a stupid question. Frats don’t rape. College students rape. Frats attract the morally weak. Kick the morally weak out.
It all depends on how you define "sexually assaulted". These days, many women would classify being asked out by a man they don't find attractive as "sexual assault".
If you think these are outright lies you have no idea what is happening on college campuses these days. Girls can't put their glass of coke down on a table because there's so much date rape drug around. It's not just the fraternities and the football team. There are foreign students who think girls are fair game if they're not wearing a head scarf. From what I hear it's almost as bad at the academies too.
BTW - the girl who is missing in Charlottesville, VA - the chief suspect in that case was thrown out of Liberty University for raping a girl.
Basically, decent men can't imagine what happens every day on college campuses.
Here’s an idea: if you don’t go to any frat parties, you stand zero chance of being raped at a frat party.
Maybe colleges should consider banning duplicitous women. But then who would fill their Gender Studies lectures?
Briefly pledged a sorority on campus in the Deep South in the 90’s. The snob sisters told me I couldn’t sit with my non-sorority friends at lunch (my “disreputable” crowd of book nerds and Reagan Republicans) and that was the end of that.
One of the requirements to keep the sorority on campus: it was expected (from the University!) that was that a group of sorority girls was expected to “entertain” a prospective high school football player at dinner at a local restaurant. I saw one of these with my own eyes where six pretty white girls cooed over one somewhat overwhelmed young black football player to entice him to sign up for the University at an Applebee’s.
Hell yes, get rid of the frats and sororities.
