How do these women attend class on Monday with the same boys that cheered them on in such a contest Friday night? How can they expect to be treated as equals when three days prior they were content to be treated as objects? At a place where the kids are supposed to be the best and the brightest, I'm stunned that things like this happen. And it's not just this one incident -- there are many more, very similar, less-publicized events, that are understood and even accepted by society.

I would make a serious push for this exact train of thought to be considered the major flaw in neofeminist thinking.
