Good for her. She’s a teenager who thinks for herself.
“Rape Culture” Think Bill Clinton and there you have the reason why everyone thinks it’s OK
“Before I allow my daughter to go to college, I will first google “party colleges”.”
I’ll save you the trouble on this one. ASU. Forget that one.
You may think that was a lie dreamed up by some radical feminist but that is not true. There is a lot of rape on college campuses today.
Go to Annapolis or to one of our other service academies. I happen to know some at Annapolis. There is a lot of rape that happens there.
Daughter of Doomonyou went to Biola in So Cal.
She wasn't raped. The students sign a contract that includes "no drinking."
Granted, I don't know if any girls/women were raped there but she had a great college experience without getting hammered every weekend.
ahahaha No EVERYWHERE!!...more bogus settled science...ya know
Nah. It’s true. The pervasiveness of wanton sex permeates colleges.
My daughter lives with two girls and one of the them has been sexually assaulted.
Why shouldn’t a guy grab a girl’s breasts? It works in porn.
And yet I will wager that 95% of all parents on this site have no problem will sending their kids away to live at the school of their choice. Parents are sending their kids into a major battle for their souls/lives/bodies with no care at all.
I know what I did in college, and now, as an older adult with children, I can recognize that I would have been better off without many of the experiences I had. I feel for our kids today and our country which promotes such lewd behavior.
I only pray that the so called Christians of this country decide that enough is enough and that they will counsel their children to not “go off” to college.

I read something recently which detailed how they came up with the 20% number. If I recall correctly, it was based on a few hundred women completing a survey from two colleges. Two.
Among other things was that all of the things they detailed were considered “rape”. Things like an unwanted kiss on the cheek, a guy fondling a woman while her clothes were on, touching her arm, as well as oral sex and vaginal intercourse. It included as rape when a girl became intoxicated, but wasn’t unconscious.
Then the results were multiplied to cover certain aspects, like students didn’t go to college year-round, so they doubled the number so it would be a “yearly” number. Then they multiplied by 5, because many kids these days are graduating in 5 years time, instead of 4. So the “researchers” used different ways of manipulating their data to make it seem like “rapes” are happening to practically every girl attending college.
It’s a dishonest number. When you reduce it back to their initial findings, it was about 2% or less for actual rape.

You’re going to have to provide better stats than what radical feminists and liberals provide.
Yes, there’s lots of sex, but rape is something different.
Excellent article.
I would first and foremost google city-data.com and check the demographics of the town where the school is located.
Sexual Assault isn’t necessarily rape. It can be other forms.
My comment was based on students at a large urban campus. The first thing the freshmen learn is never put their drink down. BTW - their drink could be ginger ale but it’s still likely to be tampered with if they set it down.
Talk to any LEO in a big college town, especially where there are a lot of foreign students, e.g., middle eastern. Sexual assault is common and it’s not just he said, she said. Exception: if you are a parent of a student talking to the campus police you won’t get the real statistics.
Re Annapolis, first hand report from a high level admiral whose child went to Annapolis. It’s a problem there as well as at the other service academies. His child wasn’t assaulted (they wouldn’t dare if they wanted a career in the Navy) but her good friend was.
Decent men find it difficult to believe stories about rape on campus. Rape is something they would never do and can’t imagine what kind of mind-set would allow it.
By the way, I'm a college grad myself. But I was not a frat member nor did I frequent bars to entice coeds into squalid sex orgies. After classes were over, I was too busy either studying or working. The college I went to had an enrollment of over ten thousand. If rape or sexual assault was a common event on campus, you can bet I would have heard about it.
You'll have to come up with solid facts to support your statements. Anecdotal evidence is just that...anecdotal.
