Researcher Evette Alexander told Hill.TV this week that there is a gender divide on college campuses when it comes to prioritizing free speech versus inclusion.
"Men and women felt quite differently on what they considered the greater priority," Alexander, who is director of learning and impact at the Knight Foundation, told Hill.TV's Krystal Ball and Buck Sexton in a "Rising" interview that aired Friday. "It was a predictor of whether they would favor free speech over inclusion or inclusion over free speech."
"We found that a substantial majority of college men, 71 percent, said that promoting free speech was the more important priority over diversity inclusion issues," she said. "We found that over half, 58 percent, of college women said the opposite. So they said that promoting a diverse, inclusive society was the greater concern for them."
Alexander was referring to a recent Knight Foundation survey that found college students overall wanted educators and policymakers to equally consider free speech and diversity.
Concern about free speech on college campuses has garnered national attention in recent years. President Trump weighed in on the issue in March when he signed an executive order requiring higher education institutions to certify they are enforcing free speech standards in order to receive grants from federal agencies.
Women believe diversity is more important than free speech (or Hate Speech as they call it).
Makes sense.
Women don’t like being contradicted.................
Proving most young women are weak and insecure. Nice job, parents and teachers.
....just as long as everyone agrees with them.
What does “inclusion” mean?
so women dont want free speech? ok they cant have it either. The most selfish animal on earth demands you lose your rights, what a hoot!
Weak and insecure. And bullies, truth be told.
If a man expresses his opinion and no woman hears him, is he still wrong?
I guess I'm guilty . . . I hate people that hate free speech.
I cut the analysis in a way other than gender . . . All those who oppose free speech I classify as "dumb-asses" and the rest are people of reasonable intelligence and intentions.
LIB women are malignancies.
Free speech is foundational not only to the search for truth, but for diversity of opinion. Things to which colleges used to be committed.
Diversity does not mean the right to gag anyone whose speech you dislike. Orwell must be spinning in his grave.
This proof women are weak, emotionally and are perfect recepticles for the left propaganda speed by the libs.
It also explains the constant daily attacks on men, young, old or otherwise.
Women in the great main prefer a strong man and are naturally drawn to them because they at some level know they need the protection afforded them by a strong man in order for them to fulfill their prime objective which is to produce, nurture and raise to adulthood our next generation.
Single women should be denied the vote. They tend - and I know there are a few exceptions - to want Mr Government to be their husband.
Women are learning to work the “Shut up and do what you are told” lesson.
This seldom ends well.
It means you must agree with them
“Weak and insecure. And bullies, truth be told.”
Never met a woman in a supervisory position who wasn’t insecure to the point of paranoia and who made very sure you knew exactly who was in charge.
It was as if they knew they were in over their head.
[[Women believe diversity is more important than free speech.]]
And evidently men playing women’s sports and using their showers afterward.
What does “inclusion” mean?
Men value freedom over security.
Women value security over freedom.
Everyone used to know that, and it was the underlying reason women were denied the vote.
“Inclusion” means punishing whites, men, heterosexuals, and Christians.
