Just kidding NWA, protect yourself. http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/04/24/columbia-university-sued-by-male-student-in-carry-that-weight-rape-case/

Men, you don't need me to tell you how horrible rape is. You already know. Society hates rapists, and rightly should. They're the scum of the earth, second only to child rapists and ISIS.

But there's a problem in our Universities. Instead of letting law enforcement handle rape cases, schools often handle them internally. Some argue that college students essentially lose some of their rights as students.

But the problem is bigger that that: we don't properly teach our kids sexual education. This includes rape education. In college, when these kids realize abstinence is bullshit, and start having sex with each other, a pandora's box of problems opens.

Essentially, what it boils down to, is the way we define rape. A lot of guys grow up with the simple idea that "no means no." But it's not as simple as that when a lot of girls grow up with the idea that "it's rape if I didn't want it." These are two vastly different ideas.

I recently had a conversation with a female friend about rape. She's a senior in college and basically agreed that many of her friends would define a negative sexual experience that they either regretted (in the moment or afterward) or didn't specifically say "yes" to (but didn't say no to either) as a rape.

And I can't fault her or her friends for thinking this way. Why? Because not only does it make me look bad, but it doesn't solve the problem of rape. Rape does happen in college. It often gets handled improperly by the school and many rapists face no consequences as a result.

But there's also many young men who are falsely accused. And that's a problem too, when the definition of rape changes from person to person and society grabs a pitchfork at the drop of an accusation.

We need to protect ourselves, and we need to do this by allowing kids proper access to sexual education and letting law enforcement deal with rape cases instead of botched college investigations.
