Hello ...

[chervilant]

35. Please watch "The Bro Code" documentary.

The research cited in this documentary puts the percentage of college-age men who would rape if they were certain they wouldn't get caught at 54%. That's over half of our young males!

But, too many of our fellow DUers have asserted that "there is no rape culture," and that the incidence of rape is lower now than it's ever been. Those of us who advocate for awareness of the rape culture are denigrated and belittled; told to watch our tone; ridiculed as 'radical feminists' with an 'agenda.'

My agenda is:

~help our children learn to experience and express their sexuality--and their full range of emotions--in healthy and productive ways;

~help our children learn respect for themselves and others, regardless of their sex or their sexual orientation;

~help our children learn that patriarchy is damaging to us all, regardless of our sex or our sexual orientation.

I hope this young woman's parents--and the families of all the young women who've been sexually assaulted or murdered while in the military--will get the truth AND justice!
