MacDonald’s article isn’t about rape, but about what she calls the “campus rape industry,” which she contends accepts ambiguous sexual behavior as rape, favors the female narrative, and punishes males for behavior in which both sexes sometimes participate willingly.
If that were so, a good weapon against the “campus rape industry” would be to focus on the funding and compare it with the usage.
I totally accept, as I said early on in my article, that an organisation that is not used should not get so much funding.
Women aren’t crying rape. Rape crisis phones don’t ring. Cut the funding. No argument there. That should be the end of it.
So why the diatribe against “hookup culture”? What does it matter if no rape charges are being brought?
Well, it matters to MacDonald. Because she doesn’t like that women are getting drunk and screwing around.
Fine. Getting drunk and screwing around is not a Good Thing. Some may say it is a Bad Thing. But MacDonald, and most people posting here, seem to think it is an OK thing for a man but not for a woman.
Fine, if that’s your opinion. Be honest, like Dan, who says, and I quote:
I have a penis, you have a vagina. This is your starting point, and your ending point.
Just don’t pretend to be concerned about rape, that’s all. Admit it: nice girls don’t get raped.
