It was discussed in the context of campus sexual assault and consent, with the author providing insights into the issue and Betsy DeVos's response to it.
I think what they're saying is a woman is perceived as always asking for it and never wanting it which is a pretty screwed up position to be in.
So you know it's part of this culture that tells guys they have to push and push and push even if a girl says no because you know there's always a yes behind the no.
And then also tells girls that if they speak out they're not going to be believed because it's all about like well why were you at that bar and why did you send him those texts and what were you really wearing anyway?
I think there's been a lot of reporting that basically says the systems on college campuses let down victims and they let down the accused.
I mean I think that people need to understand like sexual assault does exist on a spectrum and what we have to be honest about is not all of us have the same definition like a good amount of this country believes that if a woman didn't have a gun to her head then she wasn't really assaulted right
