“Women on campus have to watch their every move,” Wilson said

Jesus Christ, the way they talk, it's as if there is a psychotic stranger hiding behind every bush waiting to randomly rape people. They are so proud of their own victim mentality.

“Women on campus have to watch their every move,” Wilson said

You know, I have no stats for UMN, but using WashU as an example, there were five rapes or attempted from among some 3000 undergraduate women. Assuming the numbers are similar at UMN, which I assume they are since UDel has a very similar ratio, the odds of being raped are exceedingly slim. To watch every move to avoid so remote a possibility is absurd.

Get the violins out.

Where do they find the strength to make it through the day? They are so strong to just get out of bed in the morning.

Then there's the threat of rape and sexual assault on their way down to breakfast.

Oppressed by the patriarchy before they even make it out the door.

Poor, poor women. Poor, poor poor poor women.

Breaks my fucking heart.

Craziest thing, my ears start to bleed anytime I read pieces like this. Wonder if I should get that checked out...

How did this get published? One of the worst researched articles published I've seen lately.

Next stop, from the same uni: "amazing, female students outnumber male ones 3 to 2, clearly because women are intelligent and hard working and men are lazy pigs!"

Offensive_Brute · 2011-10-17T12:49:39+00:00

wait, i thought the goal was the neutralize the disparity...

Haha, the lone comment is pretty spot on and hilarious.

“Some people say if a woman dresses a certain way she was just asking for something to happen,” Says Wilson. The victim of sexual assault is never to blame, but these cases go to show the additional burdens women can face simply due to their gender."

How about if a guy gets beaten up for wearing say, a skirt. Dont men also face the burden of dressing according to what society considers acceptable?

"For example, women are often perceived as not being as qualified to succeed and expected to passively submit to male counterparts"

Well, if you have to ask for special favours/reservations/etc, and cannot compete on your own merit, then its obvious you are not as qualified

"The prevailing cultural attitude, even among some women, is that women’s successes aren’t achieved due to the woman’s hard work, but are rather just an outcome of the system."

If by the system they mean affirmative action they have nobody to blame but themselves.
