Rosenfeld and her students have created a model policy for adjudicating sexual assault cases on campuses.


Ya, call the police!

Shows how little respect you have for women there LDB. It's taken years to get the police to react to crimes like rape and domestic violence as swiftly and efficiently as crimes such as petty theft and disorderly conduct. Do you even know that up until not too long ago the police never acknowledged a woman could be raped by her husband? To this day some women have diffculty getting there rape cases prosecuted because of the backwards thoughts of crimes against women. Once again you have proven yourself to be as ignorant as I thought you were.

And there's a whole lot of crap that goes with sexual assault on campus, too, that might not happen in "real" life. Unless the victim leaves the campus entirely, there's no way he or she can completely avoid the aggressor's friends, the rumor mill, and often the aggressor, who may still be on campus while the issue is addressed. This isn't some hare-brained frivolity these people seek to address.

Edited to put quotes around "real".

"standing UP for sexual respect...."

thanks

just wow. Maybe she and MacKensie Phillips should hook up and have a beer.

While I do not always agree with LDB, I saw nothing so wrong with the answer, "Ya, call the police"....to incite you to write hate statements against LDB. I believe you were playing some , "anti-LDB tape" in your head when you wrote that.

I agree with what you have said about rape in your paragraph, by the way.

(I enjoyed it, lol)

and I meant no disrespect! Just all this bloody horror lately about INCEST/PEDOPHILIA...holy moly. Have we overturned EVERY deviant sexual act in the world? Is there nothing 'kinky' enough left for the masses anymore?

Sex...is really becoming UNSEXY. Come on , ppl.. Lets bring sexy back. Not in a playground! Not in your kid's bedroom!

There are some really 'loose' connections. Its like if these ppl were a car you'd have to run the air conditioner to get the wind shield wipers to move.

As I am entitled to MY opinion....so are you. I encourage you to go back through all of my previous posts and show me where I have ever posted anything about LDB to make you say I am playing anything anti-LDB in my head. But if saying I believe someone to be ignorant makes me a hater.....well then, so be it. Believe whatever you want Ms. I've-got-to-defend-LDB.

I would have to agree with you on this point as I think I have read just about all of your posts from 2007 to present. Now if Wonder would have accused ME of doing that then that would be a much different story. I honestly took offense to it as well but I sort of expect that with his posts. I don't want to take his opinion away from him regardless of how sick it gets me.

I feel no need to defend LDB. You are now putting me down as my own person [feels like abuse]. I did not "accuse" you of BEING an LDB hater. I said you seem to be playing an anti-LDB tape [because he did not say anything that would warrant your response]. Are you being a bit sensitive because you are guilty of being abusive, perhaps?

This IS a poor response.

"We need to get more peer-to-peer interaction to counteract how our culture promotes degrading women," Rosenfeld said. "This is a chance to open new conversations, and to let students know there is a place to go on campus."

The professor is correct, we need students to understand their behaviors and how they've been bred in this culture to degrade women.

Calling the police does not stop the root cause of rape and sexual assault of women (children, and men) - because they come after the fact. We need to stop these things from happening BEFORE it happens, and that comes about by have people talk to each other and understand each others POV and all that stuff.

I have friends who have been raped and when they went to the police they were basically told it was their fault, and in one instance couldn't get the guy in trouble because she "hadn't gotten him 'off'" (and this was a female cop that told my friend this). We also have pop culture making fun with rape, there's movies and tv shows that show rape scenes in a funny light, when it's no laughing matter. Things need to change.

Trust me Wonder....if I were being abusive, you'd know it. I am not guilty, nor do I feel guilty for anything. I call it like it see it.....you were defending LDB and called me a hater by saying this about my comment And it seems you are the only poster to have a problem with how I interpretted what LDB had to say about this article....so what does that say about you? This is absolutely the last time I will address ANYTHING having to do with this thread.
