Not Buying The Hype

It appears the women in our institutions of higher learning have ceased buying the feminazi “All sex is rape” credo. The damage done by those such as Katherine MacKinnon and Andrea Dworkin has made itself felt on college campuses and in society for well over a decade. But young women have stopped being taken in by the All-Men-Are-Rapist claims made by these two over the years. They're not taking what they're being told as gospel, questioning the so-called conventional wisdom as being taught at seminars about campus date rape. They ask inconvenient questions at these seminars, showing they can think for themselves.

Rape consultant David Lisak faced a similar problem this November: an auditorium of Rutgers students who kept treating women as moral agents. He might have sensed the trouble ahead when in response to a photo array of what Lisak calls “undetected rapists,” a girl asked: “Why are there only white men? Am I blind?” It went downhill from there. Lisak did his best to send a tremor of fear through the audience with the news that “rape happens with terrifying frequency. I’m not talking of someone who comes onto campus but students, Rutgers students, who prowl for victims in bars, parties, wherever alcohol is being consumed.” He then played a dramatized interview with a student “rapist” at a fraternity that had deliberately set aside a room for raping girls during parties, according to Lisak. The students weren’t buying it. “I don’t understand why these parties don’t become infamous among girls,” wondered one. Another asked: “Are you saying that the frat brothers decided that this room would be used for committing sexual assault, or was it just: ‘Maybe I’ll get lucky, and if I do, I’ll go there’?” And then someone asked the most dangerous question of all: “Shouldn’t the victim have had a little bit of education beforehand? We all know the dangers of parties. The victim had miscalculations on her part; alcohol can lead to things.”

In other words these ladies understand the consequences of their own actions, understand that consensual sex is just that and not rape, and that all men are not rapists. They get it.

It appears there is hope for our youth after all.
