If I had a college age son right now, I would tell them not to even make eye contact with a female on campus, as in when walking around campus and approaching a girl, look straight down at the ground, do not make eye contact, do not say anything. In class, do not speak to a girl unless spoken to first, and restrict your answers to yes, no, name, rank and serial number.
You and your hypothetical college age son should know there are many points on the spectrum between walking around in a bubble, and rape:
Why don't you teach your hypothetical son behavior that falls, oh, I don't know, somewhere around where the asterisk lies?
Because determining where that asterisk lies is done on a whim, with no consistent standards. Or worse, with double standards. If a woman has a few drinks and sleeps with a guy and then decides it's rape, according to at least some of these schools, yep, it's rape. Yet is a woman every charged with rape for sleeping with a guy that's had a few drinks?
Wow....let me give you an example of how nasty of a list you have there and how offensive it is to put forth a generalized list like that.
-If you screwed a guy at a party and your boyfriend is told about it, don't later claim you were raped.
-If you get a little too wild one night and screw multiple guys at a party but your sorority sisters find out, don't claim you were "drugged" and taken advantage of because you are embarassed.
-If you get pregnant from another guy, don't pretend it's your boyfriend or husbands and then have him find out years later.
-If a male teacher stops a group of "mean girls" from picking on another girl, don't claim he touched you inappropriately as revenge.
I've personally witnessed all of the above happen in my circle of friends and relatives, in no way would I try to create a list where all women should be instructed not to do the above as if it's common or "accepted". That would he evil and mysoginistic.
I've also had friends that have been raped.
This is a serious topic about where the line is with regards to consensual sex and intoxication.
Creating a list that directly implies that men need some sort of guidance not to rape is unbelievably offensive. If you don't agree, I think you should share that list with all of the men in your life, brothers, your dad, uncles, male children, friends....I'm hoping you see the point.
What are you so offended about? The list is straight forward. It's pretty easy to not rape a person yet so many neanderthals out there can't seem to get that. Do you disagree with that list?
Now why would you say something like that? It makes you seem small and mean. Be in the thread or stay out.
You mad?
