Yeah, I agree with you completely. I was sexually propositioned in a relentless way by a prof at the same time as I was dealing with the aftermath of being raped and struggling with PTSD. This prof didn’t know what I was dealing with, but he shouldn’t have to. Given what I was dealing with, it was incredibly harmful

If you want to talk about the problems of feminism, let’s start with intersectionalism- THAT’S where the big problems are. The problems don’t start with a privileged 2nd waver whining because she can’t fuck her students.

I think you’re reacting pretty fairly. I was lied to about the alcohol content of a beverage, and had too much and passed out. Then the man who raped me did just that. He had planned that. He knew I had said that I only wanted to have X drinks because I had taken medicine for menstrual cramps, and that I didn’t want

How? She basically waxes nostalgically about student/teacher relationships:

This is absurd: Kipnis’ original article was the worst kind of feminism—maintaining that students should be allowed to sleep with their professors because WOMEN POWER. Seriously, it was incoherent and ignored power dynamics. Kipnis claims to be a feminist but is so very second wave she’s veered off into misogyny.

While I’m not terribly supportive of the students outrage here, this woman doesn’t have any of my sympathy ‘cause she’s is basically lamenting that professors sleeping with students is no longer OK.

I’m 46, a research prof, and not at NU, but I found Kipnis’ article off-putting. Faculty, really, it’s not that difficult - don’t fuck undergrads and do not fuck grad students in your department. We had a similar referendum at my university recently and it prompted absolutely zero discussion because it’s absolutely a

With the risk of doxxing myself, I go to NU and am a grad student. I think her essay is in extremely poor taste since the “great prohibition” came out of a professor being a complete fucking creep (Peter Ludlow). Yes, it’s messed up to prohibit people from loving each other, but it hasn’t been socially acceptable for

After reading the initial comments and joke attempts on this article I realized I have officially passed the age where I now get upset that internet commentors take literally every story as a platform for comedy.

Trying Crystal Meth? Bath Salts? Where does it end? Lying in a jail cell with the taste of human flesh in your teeth.

When you have more than a few children...there is something wrong with you. I dated a guy who was one of 13 and his parents basically had the older kids raise the younger ones, as in, they were not enough parents for that many kids. If you have more than, say, five kids, you are HOARDING.

Whether your desire is to be a RN, a PA, a NP or a MD, at the end of the day letters after your name are only letters.

While I appreciate these things are important for you this comes off to me personally as going overboard. If you’re going to check, checking for violent felonies, fraud, etc. should be more what you’re looking for, not traffic tickets.

As far as being divorced, I guess I’d only check that if I suspected ill intent.

  • They don’t have any social media accounts like Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. Or, by contrast, they have more than one profile on each service.

Uh, except she was literally having sex on the job. That’s not a moral judgment issue, that’s a professionalism issue. If they did it on their own time, that’s one thing (which could still be grounds for firing, depending on policy) but they did it at work. During work. Come on with your silly lax moral argument.

Said pretty much every person who has no proof for their assertions on the internet.

Do you realize this work phone was required to be on her at all times, and the app deleted was being used to track her movements at all hours, even while off the clock? This is why we need more unions.

COOL FANTASY, BRO
