The Blue Board

Sounds to me like they should have waited until about 2:30 am.

I believe the accuser should have her name revealed if the players end up not guilty of rape. This shit would stop these crazy women from accusing innocent guy of rape. It's too easy.

(I'm not saying these guys are innocent)

95% of college rapes are not reported. Only 2% of sexual assault reports are false. But yes, I'm sure it's just 'too easy' to go through the legal process of accusing a person of rape.

You are going way further than TT requires.

You're posting a bunch of victim-blaming trash and haven't received even a small fraction of what this shit thread 'requires'.

Are you seriously comparing a woman hanging out with men and drinking to buying drugs? As if socializing with men is a crime for which rape is a consequence?

This is an entire thread about how it's a woman's responsibility to not get raped. It's disgusting and you should know better. Think of all the women you knew in college or know now. Many of them have been raped. You probably knew many of their rapists too. I wonder if one of them were to confide in you if your response would be: "Well, why did you put yourself in that situation?"

No lie... I would ask her that question. I would ask a lot of questions.

Damn straight.

I can DROWN you in studies that prove everything I said is true (to be clear what I said was 'one in four college girls have survived rape or attempted rape,' which is true). And since I'm being asked, I will.

In 1995 the CDC found that 20% of approximately 5,000 women on 138 college campuses experienced rape during the course of their lifetime.

A 2004 study of approximately 25,000 college women nationwide found that 4.7% experienced rape or attempted rape during a single academic year.

A 2007 study of 2,000 college women nationwide found that 5.2% experienced rape every year.

A 2000 study based on a 1996-97 survey found that 10.1% of college women reported experiencing rape prior to entering college. 10.9% reported attempted rape prior to college.

43% of college-aged men conceded to using coercive behavior to have sex (including ignoring a woman's protest, using physical aggression, and forcing intercourse) but did not admit that it was rape.

American Academy of Pediatrics, Committee on Adolescence. (1994). Sexual assault and the adolescent. Pediatrics, 94(5), 761-765.

One in 4 college-aged women report experiences that meet the legal definitions of rape or attempted rape.

Most survivors of sexual assaults at college are full-time students. Approximately one-third of them are first year students between 17-19 years old.

In a survey of students at 171 institutions of higher education, alcohol was involved in 74% of all sexual assaults.

I'm sorry if confronting people with uncomfortable truths is an attitude you don't want me directing at this board but unfortunately you're going to have to deal with it!
