I have news for her. Men live in the real world. If she wants to live there as well, she better get over her issues.

Men run the real world. Which was kind of her poorly expressed overwrought point.

HEY, Caitlin. You and others who have this apparent struggle about fearing men need to "man up" (pun intended) and learn that college boys and yes, grown men, live through their penises.

What. The. Fuck?

Don't ever go upstairs at a frat house unless its with your established boyfriend who you use for sex

Wait now, so if she had a boyfriend she's only using him for sex? Didn't she SAY that she was warned not to go upstairs under fear of rape? You think this was a newsflash?

don't make a fool of yourself by being the queen of kegstands,

Right, because if she's drunk it's her fault she was raped!

don't be STUPID,

The punishment for stupidity is not rape.

and Mr. Penis will have to sit in his room and go fap fap fap all by himself.

You know rape is about power, not sex, right? Even date rape, acquaintance rape, drunk at a party rape. It's about having the POWER to force someone to do something that they do not or would not consent to.

Yes, hell yes, I am a lot older than many of you. But here's the flash, girlies. Mr. Penis is an ancient god, one who lives through the ages.

WTF is this even.

They don't care what she is. They're trying to get laid. Is this a revelation in 2011?

While they obviously don't care about her as a person, it is NOT ABOUT SEX.

Okay. That's my weekly rant. Carry on.

Do all your weekly rants make this little sense?

Thank you so much for proving my point.

If that's what you read you're an idiot. It's about teaching our children, from young through college how to act and what is unacceptable behavior rather than permitting men to act however they like, and punishing women.

Your point was that we should stop talking about rape so we don't upset anyone. Oh how terrible, the divide between men and women when men are forced to acknowledge the existence of rape. 99% of which is perpetrated by their gender. Obviously their feelings are the most important here and it's just better not to actually address the real problem.
