I don’t know if this is a breaking news event or not but it is happening currently and it is news, so in that way I guess it’s breaking news. I doubt if large numbers of people will be as fascinated with the story as I am, but it fully captured my attention. I just can’t get my head around it. I feel like I’ve stepped into a time warp.

Here is an excerpt:

“Only one of the six students that a university committee or administrator found guilty of nonconsensual sex was suspended, according to a semi-annual report on Yale sexual misconduct. That student was excluded from Yale for two semesters and was placed on probation for the remainder of his time at Yale. Four students who were found guilty of nonconsensual sex were given written reprimands, with one required to attend gender sensitivity training. One student received probation.”

HELP!

WTF is nonconsensual sex? Isn’t that rape?

It’s like saying that murder is nonconsensual death. Instead of charging people with murder they can charge them with causing nonconsensual death in someone else. I doubt that would never be acceptable. But rape as nonconsensual sex, sure.

I mean here we are again with rape being called sex. Rape is not a form of sex, even if you add nonconsensual in front of it. It is violence.
