That's a ridiculous statement. That's like saying you can never know true love until you have given birth to a child. False. We can appreciate the harm of a trigger without having an eating disorder.
She has every right to be offended, but she has no right to ask the university gym to have female-only hours or for her university to inhibit free speech. And by announcing her feelings in an op/ed, she opens herself to be criticized. I am criticizing her, not for her eating disorder or feeling triggered, but for the fact that she's a second year law student who obviously hasn't been paying attention in class.
Lots of people have triggers. Recovering alcoholics avoid bars for this reason. She can go to a different gym and she can go to therapy and continue to work on herself. The world is not going to stop to accommodate her.
Again, the fraternity members wearing these shirts are misogynist pigs who deserve to be shunned by the sororities, but I support their right to wear whatever they please.
