It's funny because sigmadiva said that Drolefille was making women helpless children who can't protect themselves but it's okay for men to be helpless children who can't control themselves. Women need to be the safe adults here, not the men. Ahhhhhhh...this takes me back to my very first post in this thread. It doesn't need to be about "helpless women" or "boys will be boys." Those are extremes on each end of the scale. Instead, the scale should be balanced where both men and women are conscious and accountable.

It was this very "women as victims men, especially fraternity men, as lewd predators" that led to my college's crazy lawsuit and John Stossel coming to campus. Luckily, the PCU-type administrators are gone but I can see how it happens at other schools.
