UConn basketball coach Geno Auriemma said the logo is looking right through you and saying, Do not mess with me. This is a streamlined, fighting dog, and I cannot wait for it to be on our uniforms and court.
Huskies are "streamlined fighting dogs? In what universe?
In response, Luby wrote, What terrifies me about the admiration of such traits is that I know what it feels like to have a real life Husky look straight through you and to feel powerless, and to wonder if even the administration cannot mess with them. And I know I am not alone.
She had a Husky "look straight through her? What? Did it look in one of her ears?
There were two sexual assaults at UConn involving athletes in the past year, Luby claimed.
And there's the 'rape' meme-by-association, no matter how tortuous the 'logic' is.
The logo and the teams it represents are menacing to women, she wrote.
Not only the logo but the team itself. now we're getting a glimpse of her psyche.
The face of real life UConn athletics is certainly capable of frightening college women, wrote Luby.
Somebody should ask why she fears the athletes.
On June 21st 2012, UConn Mens basketball becomes the first BCS school team to face a postseason ban based solely on low APR (Academic Progress Rate) scores.
This along with the listed assaults suggest they've been recruiting urban thugs (from a protected class) to the sports teams and then covering up the inevitable thug behavior.
Gangsta culture is a rape culture and having invited it to play on the team, the logo now represents that culture.
Only she can't say that, because the thug athletes are from a protected class like the Amish, so she has to dress it up in PC feminism.
“And there’s the ‘rape’ meme-by-association, no matter how tortuous the ‘logic’ is.”
Sorry, I dont buy it. Rape is a specific form of violence and unless she mentions it it is misleading and inflammatory to indicate that she did. I think menacing, or intimidating to women would have been much more accurate to put in the headline. In any case this “woman” clearly has a screw loose and hates men. That being the case, she has a bright future in the women’s movement and RAT politics.
