  4. The "Date Rape" Issue: Feminist Hysteria, Anti-Sex Witchhunt
    Resource Type: Article
    Published: 2014
    The anti-sex frenzy springs from the agenda of the religious right. Espousing an ideology supposed to have something to do with women's rights, the feminists might be expected to oppose this witchhunt. Instead, there is a convergence between feminism and religious reaction in support of moralist repression. This is particularly evident in the "date rape" frenzy on the campuses which has recently grabbed headlines across the nation and the world. Egged on by feminist witchhunters, "politically correct" sex on campus serves the war on privacy by whitewashing the intrusion of the campus administration and the cops into students' personal business as "protecting women" and "stopping rape."

  7. Sex and Consent on Campus
    "Yes Means Yes" Law: Anti-Woman, Anti-Sex

    Resource Type: Article
    Published: 2014
    Amid an ongoing debate over sex and consent on college campuses, in September California passed "affirmative consent" legislation, which was followed by a slew of similar initiatives nationwide. The pretext is to curb a purported epidemic of sexual violence and have college administrations come clean on reporting sexual assault complaints. But legislating one form of consent as the only acceptable variant and branding all else as assault -- as these new policies do -- means that these administrations now have even greater power to enforce what is acceptable sexual activity among students.

    It wasn't that he told a woman there was something wrong with her for wearing a hijab in America. It wasn't that he encouraged people to "Purge the Illegals" and gave out ICE's hotline number at a presentation. It wasn't that he mocked a transgender college student in front of a crowd, saying he'd still almost bang her because she looked like a man. Instead, it was his discussion of the complexities of his sexual experiences with adults as a gay teenager that caused Milo Yiannopoulos to lose his $250,000 book deal with Simon and Schuster.
