Since our blog is compromised of college women writers, a little info about college in America.
Article in the NYT about why single sex education is still important.
WOMEN ARE HORNY TOO.
And finally, a Duke college student's fuck list power point goes viral, peeps are mad, etc. I think that while it's hilarious and fun for her to share with her friends, perhaps including the pictures was a little much. Your thoughts?
Much love,
The Sheriff
Unfortunately, the consequences of her powerpoint go far and beyond the personal trauma she's certainly enduring. One of the "subjects" has already had a job offer from a prominent investment firm rescinded -- and it wasn't even one who had a positive review (which might have softened the blow? ;) )! what's his life like right now?
ReplyDeleteThe Power Point thing is pretty sad to me, mostly because of the emphasis on penis size and the desire for men to fit other conventional ideas of male attractiveness. She likes big dicks, which is fine, and she didn't intend for anyone other than her friends to read it. I just feel bad for hetero guys who might read it and feel like shit about themselves because they think her standards are all women's standards.
ReplyDeleteThis: "The people that are named in it are the kinds of people that everyone wants to be or be with"...NOT TRUE. Not everyone cares about whether a guy is an athlete or a status symbol or has a "perfect" body or a huge dick. Some people (myself included) avoid guys like that because their personality (and sexual performance, and attitude towards women) is often absolutely repugnant. The "But frats make lists like this all the time!" defense actually just demonstrates how wrong it is.
