The very definition of rape has been changed to meet the current narrative. The definition of rape has followed the path of defining a "racist" using the BLM model...anything they want it to mean.

Coming from ancient laws, rape historically meant forced sexual acts involving physical contact. Only within the past few years does it now include consensual sex remorse, social revenge and shaming, even perceived intent from non sexual contact like a hug or a kiss on the cheek. OK That can be creepy at times, but my relatives never raped me when we got together at reunions.

In college “no no no” means “yes yes yes”.

If Rape is consensual sex that was done while inebriated at a college party, and someone asking you to go out, then yes, 1 in 5.

I have seen a college directive that considered sex as a result of ANY pressure to be "sexual misconduct". A specific example was a threat to break up if she wasn't interested in sex.

As far as inebriated sex, since legal drinking age is 21, one good measure would be to make underaged drinking an expulsion offense. Then, if she says "I was too drunk to give consent", the administration could say "Well, we don't know that. But have just confessed to being intoxicated while underage, so YOU are expelled".

From my viewpoint, the word "rape" should be confined to sexual intercourse where threat of violence was used to impose submission (the classic definition, before modern Political Correctness).

The definitions that are being used trivialize rape.

Ban alcohol on campus. Make possession of alcohol or drugs an offense punishable by permanent expulsion. Also, segregate males and females on campus. Oh, and enforce it.

College is for education, not hooking up, especially if their education is on the taxpayers’ dime.

It’s just like those commercials you hear on the radio.
Every 2 seconds someone dies of this or is abused with that.
The more you think about it, the more likely you will come to the conclusion that if it was true, there would be no people left.

Yes, and speaking of hate crimes and fake hate crimes, the media never wants to go into who are the majority of perpetrators and predators.

I wish they’d make up their minds. Rape is horrble, unless a rapefugee commits it, or some lefty is wishing it upon Sarah Palin.

students were so traumatized by a debate on the subject of campus sexual assault that activists organized a “safe room” equipped with coloring books, Play-Doh, calming music, and a video of frolicking puppies.

Is anyone else stunned by this passage? The students in question presumably are not 3-year old toddlers but college students.

And to further confuse the issue, rape doesn’t happen at all when it’s a rapefugee. That’s just a cultural exchange, no matter how brutal.

Oh, I quite agree. Rape was, after all, once a capital offense. Now one who has been physically assaulted and violated is considered the equivalent of someone who has heard words she doesn't like. The only loser there is the former.

I had two close friends raped at college over past few years.

One had her drink drugeed and was raped by several of Obama’s sons. One or two eventually caught and prosecuted.

The other was raped by middle eastenn classmate who was in her study group. He had to flee the country to avoid prosecution.

“Come to think of it, more than one in five male college students has had similar ‘buyer’s remorse’.”

Close as I could get, but still good:

Let me look at it in a slightly different way. You did an excellent analysis.
Start with a college with 8000 female students distributed equally among the four years.

2000 freshmen
2000 sophomores
2000 juniors
2000 seniors

Now assume that 20% of women are raped each year again evenly distributed among the four years.

400 freshmen
400 sophomores
400 juniors
400 seniors

Now an important assumption each woman is only raped once during her four years and each class size remains at 2000 with no transfer students, dropouts etc. As a women progress from freshmen year to senior year, 1600 members of her class of 2000 are raped, or 80% of a graduating class has been raped. Of course those numbers are very unlikely.
Please check my logic.

If they want to see rape culture they should go to any muzliym country. They will see, hear and experience rape.

If they are, it is undeniably a feminist created situation.

With today’s snowflakes, assault can be as simple as “that boy looked at me with what I think was lust in his eyes”. So yes, 1 in 5 are assaulted.

And if you’re a REAL Social Justice Warrior, that “look of lust” alone is fully equivalent to rape.

At the all-women Wellesley College, students demanded that the administration remove a campus sculpture of a sleepwalking man wearing only underpants. Why? Well, because the image of a nearly naked male could "trigger" memories of sexual assault for victims.

Thank goodness they found some way to get rid of that completely tasteless sculpture.
