Apparently, Oxford University just made it mandatory for freshman to take consent classes. Their goal is to help end this “rape culture epidemic” in the West.
Next, Oxford should have the freshman take mandatory Don’t Point Guns At People And Rob Them classes.
What is happening to top universities?
It’s all about money and what sells to potential students.
As long as the university is lining their pockets with those sweet, sweet tuition dollars, they don’t care what they have to do to get it.
5. Discussion of rape culture and consent isn’t about the unknown attacker in a dark alleyway, which I assume is the equivalent to the “Don’t Point Guns At People And Rob Them” example above. It’s about all those many surveys that show large numbers of teens and adults thinking that flirting is consent to sex, that being drunk is consent to sex, that clothing styles are consent to sex, that consent to sex once is blanket consent to sex any time in the future, that being male is consent to sex, that a “yes” obtained through threats, aggression or manipulation is genuine consent to sex, and so on and so on and so on.
Not to mention that Oxford (as well as every school in the UK) has a tuition cap. There’s no “selling” to students because that’s not how it works in Europe.
Studies do show that sexual assault IS an epidemic in college campuses and most colleges do all they can to cover up rapes that happen or not take responsibility. But apparently the moment one top university starts taking action to combat the issue and take responsibility, people are acting as if that college is “selling out.”
