@moiradonegan.bsky.social is so good, about such a horrible subject. The fact that she remains heartbroken by this means she has a heart. Everyone should read her, but especially men.

A reminder that if not for the Supreme Court in US v. MORRISON, Jane Doe would have had access to the federal courts for a civil rights action. The Court said that rape is a local matter no matter how great the impact on commerce.

Thinking of the famous, now-tenured academic woman who told me that she thought anti-rape activism was “inevitably reactionary” and how she’s the Title IX coordinator for her department.

I have wondered how this inevitable progression of white nationalism toward hostility and exclusion of Asians would play among the population of monied, male revanchists in Silicon Valley.

Many men rape; many men giggle encouragingly, or shrug indifferently, when their friends rape. Many men rape, and few seem to think that it’s a very big deal, writes columnist Moira Donegan

Unsurprisingly, Richard Hanania is doing rape apology coverage of the Cornell case with fellow wretch Michael Tracey

Richard Hanania @RichardHanania

Watch me discuss the Cornell rape controversy with Michael Tracey.
I think the lesson of this is that women do not want to have casual sex with men they don't know well.
They'll end up hating themselves, being hated by other women, and even seen with contempt by the men involved. This is why these situations turn bad.
Maybe she was assaulted, maybe not, either way it was a terrible decision to make.
Women need to be told the truth.

Thinking of that time after Biden got elected, when a VERY fancy lawyer and Dem strategist called me on the phone like, “Moira, everyone at my firm is mad that the Title IX rules are going to be stricter, because it will be bad for our university clients to have to punish rape.”

If you’re interested in gender violence at universities, my favorite book on it is A Survivor’s Education by Joy Neumeyer, which looks at the Title IX process both as a system of political repression and as a way of revoking women’s epistemic authority. www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/joy-n...

"The US has grown used to the swift and dramatic erosion of women’s health and status that has followed Dobbs," writes @moiradonegan.bsky.social, "to the horror stories and upward ticking body counts, grown into ease, and even a kind of compliant boredom, with women’s death and indignity."

Went out to dumplings for lunch and sat next to three white people in their 20s, two men and a woman. The men talked about their contempt for the women they sleep with while the woman giggled along and egged them on. I thought about telling her, but didn’t.

You know when public attention can reverse a prosecutorial decision like this you almost get the sense that the decision to shrug it off in the first place was not based on an assessment of the quality of the evidence so much as an assessment of the seriousness of the crime.

IMO it’s clear from Richard Hanania’s own words that he believes that rape, both statutory and violent, is the right of a certain kind of man. Elite men It’s appalling that this man is given a drop of ink or a second of interview time in our media. My latest: www.liberalcurrents.com/richard-hana...
