Columbia mattress girl looking to cash in on art project
Washington Examiner ^ | May 20, 2015 | 11:22 am | Ashe Schow

Emma Sulkowicz, known for carrying a mattress around campus for what she claims is a protest of Columbia University's failure to punish her rapist, is hoping to cash in on her alleged art project.

Sulkowicz told the New York Times after her graduation on Tuesday — where she carried her mattress across the stage — that she would sell the mattress if offered.

"If some sort of museum wants to buy it, then I'm open to that," she said, "but I'm not going to just throw it away."

Sulkowicz has for the past year carried her mattress around for course credit at Columbia, and said she would do so until the man she accused of rape either graduated or was expelled. On Tuesday, both Sulkowicz and the man she accused — Paul Nungesser — graduated.

I know a way she can make cash from a mattress, but she probably already thought of that.

I’m sure she’ll make millions and be invited to the next State of the Union meeting.

Many women regret the sexual encounters they had in college. However most participated willingly and its lying rectification when they claim later it was rape.

Isn’t it a betrayal if she ever stops carrying it?

The dude should sue the publication for calling him a rapist. He was not called alleged, and he was not charged.

If she makes any money off of this Paul Nungesser should sue her butt for all of it.

“Nungesser was cleared of wrongdoing by a campus hearing and the police. He has also released Facebook messages showing friendly and loving messages between he and Sulkowicz after the allegedly brutal rape.”

Well, the feminists tell us women never lie about these things - Lena Dunham - and are ALWAYS truthful about the details of such attacks - Lena Dunham - and ONLY the guilty should suffer - University of Virginia... why, we can TRUST the mainstream media to tell us the truth TOO about these things - Rolling Stone - can’t we?

Ahem.

And you can bet most of these women will vote for Hillary not knowing her role in covering up for her husband’s assaults on women, or choosing to ignore it because they want a female president.

In her many texts to her supposed “rapist” (which were posted online a while back) she write often that she wants anal sex (she uses a more descriptive term). Looking at that face, I suspect the “other end” would in fact be preferable for most guys.

Something about a freight train and a dirt road comes to mind.

I’m sure his lawsuit will be tossed out by big liberal (Obama appointed) judge #1...
