Study: Sexual harassment At U.S. colleges.

Man, I went to the wrong college:

WASHINGTON, D.C. (Reuters) -- Nearly two-thirds of U.S. college students are affected by sexual harassment -- ranging from offensive jokes and gestures to touching and grabbing, according to a study released on Tuesday.

Men are more likely to harass than women, but women and men are equally likely to be harassed on U.S. campuses, according to a report by the American Association of University Women.

Researchers found that 62 percent of college students experienced sexual harassment, and 32 percent of college students said they were victims of physical harassment.

"The primary form of harassment that we're seeing is actually non-contact: it tends to be remarks, gestures and jokes," Elena Silva, the report's co-author, said in a telephone interview. "But the fact that one-third of college students are experiencing some form of physical harassment is certainly a concern."

So, the primary form of harassment is. . . flirting? Yeah, I could see how that would be a real hassle.

Obviously, if there's something more serious going on here, there is "room for concern." But who here seriously believes that this study isn't lumping in all sorts of innocuous behavior in order to make the "problem" seem worse than it is?

Besides, merely *asking* a woman to salt her neck and place the shot glass between her lips isn't sexual harassment. Asking her 47 times, however, might cross that line. (Thank God she said yes after only 23 times, whew).

Common types of physical harassment include being touched, grabbed or pinched in a sexual way, or intentionally brushing up against someone in a sexual way, the study found.
Sigh.

I sure wish someone would harass ME right now.

I guess you never learned about playing hard to get. Keep saying things like that, and you'll never be anything more than a 2:00am booty call. Or is that what you want, you wanton hussy?

Beloved, my life is but to serve you. The salt shaker is right here.

Hey college students! Lighten the fuck up!

I hate to see these bogus studies published as it trivializes the problem of sexual harassment. Everybody knows from their own experience that these stats cannot be true. So when real sexual harassment happens people just dismiss it as a flirty look or a touch on the elbow.

You could always find a quiet place light a few candles, put on some Kenny G, lie on your arm until it is numb and then harrass yourself.

I went to a college that was two-thirds gay, and still no one tried to squeeze my honkers, not even to check the built-in support.

It's enough to bruise a girl's ego.

mary,

I'm willing to step up and salve your injured pride by giving the Amazing Wonder Twins some gentle attention. That's just the kind of guy I am.

...still no one tried to squeeze my honkers...

It's enough to bruise a girl's ego.

So, a little physical bruising would have meant less emotional bruising? I never knew I was a minuteman in the war for womens' mental health. Well, I knew I was a minuteman in terms of staying power, I just didn't know that I was a heroic volunteer fighting for my community.

Geeeeez, Dave.... Lessee, here.
You asked her 23 times... and each time she had a shotglass in her face?

Consider yourself lucky, do you?

I know of damned few women who won't say 'yes' after 23 shots, dig?

Posted by: Bithead on January 24, 2006 12:25 PM

"honkers"?

Posted by: Darwin on January 24, 2006 12:34 PM

What can I say? She was a big girl.

Posted by: Dave at Garfield Ridge on January 24, 2006 12:46 PM

How about posting nude pictures in a public place? Does that constitute sexual harrassment?

Posted by: Hal on January 24, 2006 12:47 PM

Far more serious -- and always has been -- is the sexual exploitation of students by faculty, who in many cases seem to regard the 'student body' as their personal harem. Also: Quid-pro-quo is sexual bribery where students buy good grades for sex, or extortion where they avoid bad grades, with sex. Most university faculty I've met seem to consider this arrangement peachy keen and an expected perk.

JimO -

I was given good grades by professors in return for NOT having sex with them.

Posted by: steve_in_hb on January 24, 2006 01:19 PM

Hal, why do you want to know?

Posted by: vivi on January 24, 2006 01:25 PM

Do you still get good grades for bad sex? I mean poorly performed sex rather than the use of a David Hasselhoff doll and a toilet plunger.

Megyn Kelly finally calls out Candace Owens
Whoops, I meant she bravely attacks Sydney Sweeney for "bending the knee." (Sweeney put out a very empty PR statement saying "I'm against hate." Whoop-de-doo.)
Megyn Kelly claims she doesn't want to call people out on the right when asked about Candace Owens but then has no compunctions at all about calling people out on the right.
As long as they're not Candace Owens. Strangely, she seems blind and deaf to anything Candace Owens says. That's why this woman calls her "Megyn Keller."
She's now asking her pay-pigs in Pakistan how they think she should address the Candace Owens situation, and if they think this is really all about Israel and the Jews.

More revelations about the least-sexy broken relationship in media history
I'd wanted to review Parts 2, 3, and 4 of Ryan Lizza's revenge posts about Olivia Nuzzi, but they're all paywalled. I thought about briefly subscribing to get at them, but then I read this in Part 2:
Remember the bamboo from Part 1?

Do I ever! It's all I remember!
Well, bamboo is actually a type of grass, and underground, it's all connected in a sprawling network, just like the parts of this story I never wanted to tell. I wish I hadn't been put in this position, that I didn't have to write about any of this, that I didn't have to subject myself or my loved ones to embarrassment and further loss of privacy.

We're back to the fucking bamboo. Guys, I don't think I can pay for bamboo ruminations.
I think he added that because he was embarrassed about all the bamboo imagery from Part 1. He's justifying his twin obsessions: His ex, and bamboo. Which is not a tree but a kind of grass, he'll have you know.
Olivia Nuzzi's crappy Sex and the City fanfic book isn't selling, says CNN (and CNN seems pretty pleased about that)
On Tuesday, the book arrived in stores. At lunchtime, in the Midtown Manhattan nexus of media and publishing, interest in Nuzzi's story seemed more muted. The Barnes and Noble on Fifth Avenue had seven copies tucked into a "New & Notable" rack next to the escalator, below Malala Yousafzai's "Finding My Way." Not many had sold so far, a store employee said.

A few blocks uptown, at a branch of the local independent chain McNally Jackson Books, a few volumes lay on a table of new and noteworthy nonfiction near the front of the store. No one was lining up to get them, or even browsing. Bookseller Alex Howe told CNN around 3 p.m. that though the store had procured "several dozen" copies, not a single one had yet sold -- a figure he said was surprising, considering how many people in media and publishing work in the area.

"We ordered a lot and so far, people have not been beating down the door," Howe said. "I'm not sure where we're gonna put them because right now, supply is outpacing demand." (A manager at McNally Jackson noted that Howe was speaking only in a personal capacity, not as a representative of the store.)

She trashes Ryan Lizza for his "Revenge Porn" here. Emily Jashinsky says that when the Bulwark's gay grifter Tim Miller asked why she didn't report on the (alleged) use of ketamine by RFKJr., she broke down in tears and asked to end the interview.
