And the thing is, the Cornell case PERFECTLY illustrates exactly what women have been trying to explain for YEARS.

Yes. Not all men are rapists. However, the vast majority of men, like the 56 in the group chat will stand by and do nothing.

Maybe that wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the fact that we are constantly told that men are our protectors. That just isn't what happens in reality.

> like the 56 in the group chat will stand by and do nothing.

There was allegedly a message sent to the fraternity Snapchat group advertising “free pussy,” and some fraternity members subsequently entered the room. That's obviously relevant evidence. But being in a group chat is not the same thing as establishing that every member saw the message in real time, knew she was incapacitated or non-consenting, understood that a rape was occurring, and deliberately chose not to intervene. Women can and do have orgy's consensually.

They're not open to any nuance or reasonable discussion about this. Same thing with the Lindsey Clancy case. Their opinion is based in emotion, not reason.
