It's pathetic that this is controversial
A number of people have written in and asked me to comment on this incident at Yale where a bunch of douchebag frat boys yelled a bunch of pro-rape stuff around housing where a lot of young women live. It’s obvious to me this is as classic as it gets when you’re talking about the homosocial support for rape. While it’s unlikely that all, or even most, of the frat members who did this enjoy raping women, someone thought it was just a great idea to remind the women of Yale that this threat is ever-present. You don’t have to rape to exploit the fear that rape instills in women.
