While you might be disciplined about not behaving in such a manner, it’s just as important that you don’t let your friend’s comment go un-confronted.

There it is! That underlying belief that all men, everywhere, are just moments away from raping anyone and everyone within reach.

Dear Mr Shushok, Frank. Can I call you Frank? I'm going to call you frank. You can go right to hell, you simpering asshole. You may be just barely able to prevent yourself from assaulting women ( and men? I don't judge ), but most of us act with honor and morality and would never think of hurting another in that fashion.

The 1 in 4 Meme Vs Rape And Sexual Assault Among College-Age Females, 1995-2013
The rate of rape and sexual assault was 1.2 times higher for nonstudents (7.6 per 1,000) than for students (6.1 per 1,000)
The 1 in 4 Meme, created by Ms Magazine and Mary Koss is not supported by Government Data which gives a base rate 40 times smaller.
It so not 1 in 4 but 1 in 163

And let’s be clear—while there are unfortunate instances of false reporting, all evidence is that the occurrence is rare—very rare.

Well, of course. If all that you need to declare someone guilty is an accusation and any exculpatory evidence can be thrown out at the whim of the judge/jury/executioner/title-IX-office then I'm amazed that they've managed to find any false allegations at all.
