American University Erupts Over Date Rape: Girls Who Drink and Go to Frat Parties Deserve Date Rape, Says Student Newspaper Columnist
Today begins Sexual Abuse Awareness and Prevention month -- and American University is in an uproar over an anti-feminist diatribe in the student newspaper charging that some women who survive date rape invited it.
"Let's get this straight: any woman who heads to an EI [fraternity] party as an anonymous onlooker, drinks five cups of the jungle juice, and walks back to a boy's room with him is indicating that she wants sex, OK?" columnist Alex Knepper, 20, wrote in the Eagle, the school paper.
"To cry 'date rape' after you sober up the next morning and regret the incident is the equivalent of pulling a gun to someone's head and then later claiming that you didn't ever actually intend to pull the trigger," he said.

I don’t see this as “anti-feminist”. I see it as common sense.
It's all about who is doing the raping.
Hat tip to Allahpundit via Twitter.
Mods, can we get a ‘hat tip’ link in the form when we present an article? I catch a lot of good tips on Facebook and Twitter nowadays and the ‘tippee’ deserves credit for pointing in the right direction. ;-)
DAte Rape is a CROCK, slutty women don’t like the truth.
I agree. It’s not a question of what anyone “deserves,” but of what can reasonably be expected when one is drunk and canoodling with the opposite sex.
This is what passed for common sense at one time.
He has a point. Just recently a couple of my friend found them selves in jail facing rape charges after a girl (willing at the time) regretted getting caught f***ing them both at the same time. Fortunately she eventually dropped the charges. I can imagine this scenario happens far too often.
Dress like a ho, act like a ho, expect to be treated like a ho.
“Knepper, an openly gay political science major and a two-year columnist with the Eagle, is known as a provocateur, according to CASJC member Drew Franklin.”
So the backlash against Knepper must be homophobia, right?
He’s gay.
This story will disappear by the end of the day.
Like the black baseball player who claimed that Carribean blacks aren’t authentically black.

I find myself liking this guy.
Is there a high fatality rate to what feminists call "date rape"?
Never thought ‘no means no’ was a feminist position.

Maybe so. But he is dead right about these bimbos who sober up in the morning - then cry rape.
Even if the girl signed a release before she jumped into bed with you..she could still call rape according to their rules.
That is totally false. Your statement may be true in some cases.
It is a very real thing in many cases that woman suffer. I vote castration for the offenders when it is proven.
Go take a survey of 1,000 woman and see how many of them say it is a crock.
You would be surprised.
That's like saying:
Boys Who Defend Boys Who Date Rape Girls Who Drink and Go to Frat Parties Deserve Journalistic Rape, Administrative Rape, Academic Rape, Societal Rape, 1st Amendment Rape, Court Rape...
Nobody deserves rape. Drink in moderation. Love your legitimate spouse. Don't drink and drive. Don't drink and rape. Don't drink and party with rapists.
