So liberal havens are also havens for sexual violence against women? Who knew?

There is no violence against women - or at least to the extent claimed. That's the point of the article. It's myth that was started by old feminist hags to portray men as predators and pigs.

Any man that can’t get nookie without raping a female at a college campus has got to be one pathetic loser. I never met any man while in college that couldn’t find at least one female that shared lust together. There were the few that were just abstinent and I could admire that attribute but any male on a campus was like a fox in a henhouse when it came to sex.

Liberal mythology. Just like the teeming numbers of homeless, homosexual, or hungry.

Somethin’ broke at the LA Times? How can sense actually appear on those pages; the feminists in the city will be writing their outrage at the paper for weeks, I’m sure, for publishing such a story.
Went to college for six years, only rape I ever heard of occurred off-campus in a drinking binge.

When I lived near UT Arlington, there were several rapes near campus. The perps showed up in a van near a jogging trail near dusk and pulled a single female off the jogging course and raped her.
1. These were violent thugs who went for easy attractive targets, who happened to be students.
2. They were illegals, so it wasn’t a frat boy rape epidemic. But I don’t want to call it yet another job Americans won’t do, since there are enough local born scum who would do it if they could.

Yep, when I went to college back in the late 70's the only gals who carried rape whistles were the stringy-haired ones who wore flannel shirts and were the size of the "Hindenburg".
The last thing any of them would ever have to worry about was rape.

“....the stringy-haired ones who wore flannel shirts and were the size of the “Hindenburg”.”
I saw one of those at a pro-abortion rally in Denton a while back. She was wearing a sweat-shirt with the slogan “Hands off my body!”
I was easily convinced, to say the least.

The whole “rape” myth was conjured up by NOW, a group consisting of strident lesbians. These disgusting, pathetic souls maintain that all heterosexual sex is de facto rape because no correct-thinking female would have sex with a man.

“Hands off my body” regarding abortion. Yet this same crowd embraces an ever encroaching government that potentially will tell us we can’t smoke, what foods we can or can’t eat, the kind of car we should drive, the light bulbs we use, etc.

I actually believe that statistic, but only because someone who is intoxicated cannot legally consent to sex. So yes, that high a number of women may have been raped by the time they graduate, but they call the vast majority of those incidents ‘drunken hookups’.

broken link?
I remember a statistics prof who was once quoted (back in the ‘80s) saying that the NOW groups on campuses were using bogus statistics and boy was he lucky to survive the episode without being gelded in Harvard Yard. He was tenured so there wasn’t too much they could do to him except protest but he sure was Mr. Unpopular with the campus feminazis.

Not surprised. During the Vietnam War, the anti-war LW “males” never talked about sex in a normal way, it was always about rape, or some other violent sexual encounter. Needless to say, a lot of these guys DID rape young women, and thought they had done nothing wrong. Bill Clinton was one of them.Needless to say, most of the women left the anti-war movement. Only the nutcases like Hillary Rodham remained.
To: vetvetdoug
The anti-war guys during the 60’s couldn’t for some reason, get any nookie. Like maybe they were repulsive? So, they raped.
To: vetvetdoug
...and I could admire that attribute but any male on a campus was like a fox in a henhouse when it came to sex. And, here at the University of Virginia, a school prominently featured in the article, yes, that statement is very very true.
Unless you're in the Engineering School.
