Women who want sex are lying sluts.

That's the premise of the lawsuit that was filed and won against Amherst College, championed by KC Johnson.

The concerns discussed by the lady of that case in her text messages of the night in question refer to her distress about having had sexual contact with her roommate's boyfriend; that's what she felt guilty about.  Her obvious guilt about that was deliberately misconstrued by the plaintiff and everyone who has converged to attack her to be guilt for having committed the alleged sexual assault of which they are all accusing her.  None of them have recognized that she could have felt guilty about having had sexual contact with her roommate's boyfriend; she is deliberately misportrayed as being incapable of that type of guilt, even though that type of guilt is the most obvious explanation for why she didn't think that night about whether or not all of the sexual contact was consensual and she only blamed herself.

If the gentleman in question were "blackout drunk," then how probable is it that he was able to have an erection?  I'm not saying that it's impossible; I'm saying that I have yet to read a viciously slut-shaming article about the lady that does not portray him as the victim of assault because he was "too drunk to give consent" and that also recognizes at all the effect that intoxication of that magnitude frequently has on men.  Also, while his own behavior is excused on the premise that he was "blackout drunk," hers is evaluated as if she were totally sober and/or from the premise that a lady who drinks is a lying slut.  

While there's been no year of every century in which men who want sex for reassurance and human closeness in the aftermath of a traumatic event (and during every other hour of the 24 regardless of their emotional state) aren't portrayed as romantic and deserving of love, and women are expected to provide that reassurance and closeness to men at all times and are labeled as cold if they don't think of themselves as being biologically destined to fulfill that role in men's lives, the female Amherst College student who had perhaps submitted to sexual contact with her roommate's boyfriend because she'd felt rejected by the guy whom she actually liked is portrayed as...what was that?  How could I forget?  A lying slut.

The amount of time that it took her to report the encounter as being nonconsensual is more supportive than not of her having really felt that it was not consensual, rather than as an excuse for having had consensual contact with someone who was dating her roommate.  Why would she bring up something that had happened more than a year before if nobody was accusing her of anything?  Also; as unfortunate as it is, infidelity among people who know each other tends to be addressed by friendships permanently and acrimoniously ending, and not by false accusations of sexual assault.  Whatever the faults are of colleges at the Ivy League level, they don't admit a lot of stupid students; this is a fact that people who want to use all the same stupid stereotypes about women do not acknowledge.  Most drunk texting doesn't tend to be representative of how intelligent or not most people are, no matter where they're students.  

These assault defenses and lawsuits are based on the same premises that have prevented people from reporting assault for years.  "What were you wearing (if you're female)," "were you drinking (if you're female)," "are you monogamous (if you're female)," "why didn't you tell anyone sooner (if you're female)."  

Am I the first person to suggest that someone who would hit on his girlfriend's roommate while his girlfriend is out of town might also be capable both of forcing her to have sexual contact once they're in a private place and then lying about it?  Might his thought process have been that she had to say yes because she wouldn't be able to tell anyone without admitting that their initial contact was as consensual as her drunkenness could have it be?  

Case dismissed.
