Rape Couture


Über Butch Intellectual Camille Paglia trashes the concept of "rape culture" being promulgated by wimp feminism…
‘Rape culture’ is a ridiculous term – mere gassy propaganda, too rankly bloated to critique. Anyone who sees sex so simplistically has very little sense of world history, anthropology or basic psychology. I feel very sorry for women who have been seduced by this hyper-politicised, victim-centered rhetoric, because in clinging to such superficial, inflammatory phrases, they have renounced their own power and agency.
Paglia lives about a mile from that hot bed of "rape culture" hysteria known as Swarthmore College. Some brave conservative soul should ought to invite her to speak there, provided they can get their hands on enough fainting couches.

UPDATE: We wrote about this sort of thing years ago. Check it out.
