@HeidiBriones The whole kneeling down to pray to the tiger sounds like he could have just been on a shit ton of psychedelics.
Thinking he was so "tuned in" he thought could like communicate with the tiger through vibes or some shit
No. Colleges should NOT play the role of a parent. Authority on a campus is not synonymous with parental authority.
A fundamental part of leaving home for college is learning how to navigate adulthood without constant supervision. It's learning how to be responsible for your own choices, your own time, your own mistakes, etc.
Extending adolescence only infantilizes young adults, and that mindset is EXACTLY why Gen Z is struggling to adapt.
I'm going to hold your hand when I say this: not every unpleasant or uncomfortable or regrettable experience needs to become a life-altering trauma.
You can actually let a mistake be a lesson instead of a wound to build your identity around.
You don't need to dissect every uncomfortable moment until you find a victim and a villain.
The mess of being human doesn't always need to be pathologized.
A senior at Harvard observes “a narrative emerging among young people that more than just consent is required to make a sex act ethical.”
“In the Cornell Daily Sun, a student says fraternities function as ‘a market, where women are seen as commodities.’”
“A Dartmouth contributor lambasts frat culture where brothers ‘humiliate and degrade’ and that teaches ‘men to treat women and each other like subhuman objects.’”
“The emerging picture is of a sexual ethic that cannot be satisfied simply by one liberal-autonomous agent assenting to the action of another. The new ethic requires upholding the dignity and respect of the human being involved. Respecting women is incompatible with drug-fueled orgies where the ‘shop’ is ‘open,’ regardless of how consensual said orgy may or may not be.”
@libertydadpod So many people seem to think that if we just "infantilize them harder" it will fix the problem, when infantilizing young adults is LITERALLY how we got here.
Im so annoyed that the take is "sex positivity" is the issue or colleges need to be more parental, when quite frankly, neither of these are the fucking problem.
The problem is this constant reinforcement of an external locus of control and a complete refusal to let people bear the weight of their own agency.
Women: you are either an independent being who takes full responsibility and ownership of your life/choices, or you are a dependent who defers all the power and liability to an external authority.
If you want to be a perpetual victim of circumstance where things just *happen* to you, completely exempt from the weight of consequence, that’s your prerogative.
But a woman cannot claim autonomous freedom AND be exempt from the responsibility that comes with it.
That's the trade-off sweetie, take it or leave it.
You either have agency or you don't. If you can't take the heat, gtfo the kitchen.. or dare I say, back in it.
There's a world in which the Cornell sex lady is a victim, just not one in which she can vote and own property.
Maybe we should let women choose which type of woman they want to be
One particular part that bothers me about the Cornell lawsuit is she is suing her sorority for not preventing her from binge drinking while under their “care, custody, and control.” Bizarre that an adult can sue someone else for not stopping them from making their own choice.
