THEY’D NEVER BUY THESE STUDIES IF THEY WERE AIMED AT WOMEN OR MINORITIES: No, half of college athletes are not rapists.

Another day, another dubious study shared without critical thought throughout a media desperate to prove rape and sexism are everywhere.

This time, a small-scale, online survey of undergraduate college men at a single Southeastern university is being trumpeted as proof that male athletes are rapists. Some media outlets, like the Washington Post and Inside Higher Ed, at least claimed the study showed athletes admitting to “sexual coercion,” which is what the study purported to show. But the Independent went full stop, claiming the study showed “More than half of university sportsmen admit to raping or sexually assaulting women.”

The survey, as with all other surveys purporting to show rampant rape among college students — especially athletes and fraternity members — had some limitations.

It’s just more propaganda fodder in the War On College Men.
