Male Feminist writer equates sex education and sexual celebration at Yale with misogyny and sexual abuse

This article is soo full of crap. As a Yale student who spent 4 years there at the same time as the author, here is my take:

What he is talking about are not classes, these are student run lectures for about 5 days in a year around Valentine's day. That's it. Students are the one inviting sex workers and PUAs on campus to speak. The administration doesn't even fund it and barely allows it to happen. Some hardcore porn was played at some point, but who cares.

Just for comparison, during the other times, students bring all kinds of other speakers to other clubs. Scalia, Richard Stallman, Buckley and less famous politicians and businessmen are all the kinds of people we get the rest of the year.

"No Means Yes!" and "We love Yale sluts" definitely happened. Suspensions followed the second one. Free speech be damned. However, Yale allowed some really questionable art by aliza schwartz(googling it may be NSFL). It's wasn't entirely real and they did take it down due it being a bio-hazard. They had to allow it cause free speech. This was the start of the "menstruation art" thing going on these days.

The university does indeed pride themselves on concern for women's rights. For example, there was no Yale men's center (i don't know if that's still true).

I think you missed the point of the article OP. It seemed to me he was trying to remove the cultural marxism from Yale.

"Turning the training ground for America’s political and cultural elite into an intellectual joke."

Sounds like someone is mad that the unwashed masses are using their "right" to higher education(and free money for it) and drawing dirty pictures on their ivory tower when they get there.

The author complains of "Moral relativism disguised as multiculturalism". He is objecting to multiculturalism because Yale was inclusive to a member of the Taliban who was very anti-feminist. The trouble is that multiculturalism, feminism and moral relativism all stem from the same root - they are based on the idea that all values and mores are arbitrary and culturally conditioned. It is ultimately inconsistent to support feminism and multiculturalism while objecting to moral relativism.
