A tiny bit of gentle advice for the men: before you try to explain or pontificate anything about the Cornell 7 to a woman, please remember chances are she’s already an expert 🙏🏻

I dont know what any of those big stupid fancy words mean. But those 7 little shits should have been investigated. By someone other than the student newspaper that refused to stay silent, those ladies are fucking legends. Hope them bad lasses carry that accountability and integrity beyond uni.

Men who enable this behavior or take up for it. Are the weakest beta bros alive. If a woman doesn't want you when she's sober. You're a predator taking advantage when she's drunk and drugged. Your type should avoid my presence

Don’t you mean the Cornell 57? The one who turned around and walked away and the ones who turned the blind eye are just as guilty.

You are too kind, now is the time for all men to actively listen to every woman's and stfu. It seems logical that you can't listen while speaking nor just waiting to speak. This is a problem with every single cis man that we need to solve. Involuntary Celibacy is because men aren't trustworthy.

GURRRL.... #SpittingFacts!! Im SO LIVID abt this 💩 I want 2 HURT a ba$tard!! Essays my A$$!! They've traumatized this poor girl 4 LIFE!! As part of the #MeToo movement, I know the #PTSD which remains since I was but a little girl & Im bloody 67!! I hope they ALL get STDs & their wankers fall off!🤬👿☠️

That is a stretch. I think it's comforting to think that fellow Dems are not racist, but we all grew up in this white supremacist society. Yes, most dems are willing to examine their biases and try to improve... but there are some who do not. Also, none of us are completely cured.

I'd love to say that I've never been so ashamed of my fellow men, but it's like the 5th time this week and we've still got Sunday to go.

70 men in France raped an unconscious woman, drugged by her husband, about a 100 declined the 'invitation' but none called the police. Sorry, but this has been going on for a long time, pretending it's only 'this week' is an insult to all the victims. Stop looking away.

Maybe read my post again. I never said this was a recent development, I was demonstrating the exact opposite in fact. Who is looking away? I clearly am not as I wouldn't have made my post otherwise.

I am not a woman and I would never presume to tell a woman about anything involving their lives: abortion, careers, rape etc. That said I am a man & I have been raped. Yeah it happens and more than once. I can only speak from my own experience.

you're giving advice to republican men, none of which are listening to you. Democratic men, aka women's allies, already respect women and aren't about to "explain or pontificate"to a woman on the Cornell 7; sympathize with, & agree with women, yes, pontificate no. So you're just indulging yourself.

No need to be “gentle”. Direct and clear. Do NOT PONTIFICATE or lecture a woman about the Cornell Rapists. Turn around and say it to your Bros. And then STFU.

There is nothing to explain just support women against these abhorrent scum and the people protecting them. I personally support castrating the bastards without anaesthetic

“Cornell 57” The 50 who weren’t actively raping her had SEVEN HOURS to call police/911/campus security and they did nothing.

It’s pretty clear-cut to me. The woman was savagely attacked to the point that she wasn’t capable of reporting everything that had happened to her. And “sentencing” them to write essays is educational malpractice.

I would be willing to bet a small fortune that they deliberately drugged her with the intent of doing this to her. And I wouldn't be surprised to find out that she was not the first. I have seen and experienced (and stopped) men trying to intoxicate/drug myself and other women.

Hi, I’m a man. I have never raped a woman. Nor have I ever been accused of rape. Because i was raised properly. Those 7 should be placed in genpop, hopefully killed in prison. If all 7 of those darling boys are killed in prison, the world will be a better place. Don’t rape. Pretty easy.

Men of a certain age in positions of power saw it happen in high school, saw it happen in college. Maybe they did nothing or even participated. They want it to just continue going away without consequences. Not all men? Who stood up and did anything?

All of these “conservative men” want a return to the 50’s and traditional values, while at the same time drugging women to have sex with them and immediately going into the “protect the bro code” when they know it’s happening. GD hypocrites!!!

Your hands, your dick, your religion, and your opinion on a woman being sexually assaulted, should stay out of any conversation they weren't expressly invited to.

Someone did invent an insertable that shreds anything else that gets inserted. Not the most comfortable thing to use, bit worse than a tampon, but if we all started using them it could change a few things. 😉

81% of women in the US has been assaulted or raped!! Starting age 11 to 17!! We need to be better!! Teach your children well!! Sound familiar?? Hmm 🤔

And men? Never say "but it's not all men" or "but men get raped too". Both statements are true, and both statements are deliberately intended to trivialize and distract from the actual problem.

I think I was an undergrad when the concept of consent, and "No means No!" began to get wide cultural attention. When my son was an undergrad, I couldn't miss the more refined message in the many posters around his dorm, that someone with diminished capacity could not Consent. That was a decade ago

remember that not every woman has the safety, distance, or support to discuss these issues as an abstract debate. I’m a woman from a remote, intensely misogynistic area where even speaking up for myself has led to a terror campaign that is still ongoing. I documented the abuse,

exhausted local options and reached out to int'l human rights spaces, zero help So when men explain or pontificate about women’s experiences, they're not correcting an uninformed audience; they may be speaking over someone who has paid an enormous personal price simply to be heard. Listen first.

I actually wouldn’t mind a little bit of explaining either manexplaining or plain explaining from men telling me the thought process that goes on in the 50+ guys heads when they didn’t immediately act to protect the woman after getting that group chat.

It's crazy that if you're intoxicated you can't consent to a tattoo, drive a car, ride a bike, sign a legally binding contract, but an unconscious intoxicated woman can consent to sex... Wild

A three-time expert. Keep your hands and dicks to your fucking selves. Also, these mfrs should be forced to pay for the every session of therapy we need. They should be forced to pay a lifetime of damages. They should be fined for every time a woman feels too afraid to live her fucking life.

I was talking with a female family member about this story. This is bringing up a lot for her. I wish I also didn’t know this feeling. Most women know or know someone who knows. And it sucks.

Men don't get to pontificate on this or any subject relating to women's safety or health. As long as there are continued rulings about rape, pedophiles & abortion that vilify women, sit down, be quiet & listen.

We don't know that yet. Has any of them even got his nose punched in? Or are they all happily staying at home and might get again a lenient sentence, or released from jail after 3 months because none of you is looking at them anymore?

Pick a side, men. The good side. bsky.app/profile/cape...

I'm a Cornell Alum who was a member of the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity during the 80s. I'm taking a side. These crimes committed at #Cornell are horrific. I agree with @katemanne.bsky.social: "I want to add here in the clearest terms possible: ban the fucking frats." substack.com/home/post/p-...

My college bf was a Phi Delt in the early ‘80’s. My friend was gang raped at the house on our graduation day. They called it “pulling a train”. The house was only kicked off campus when a local high school girl was raped at one of their parties the following year 

I won’t say that all fraternities are cesspools that promote misogyny and often criminal behavior, but anyone who goes to a university or college probably knows about sickening behavior at one. My roommates all pledged Sigma Chi. The stories I heard were unbelievably disgusting.

Yes, it's gotten better. In the past, when women were drugged and gang-raped in fraternities, no one would ever even think to prosecute the rapists. They'd expel the victim for making a fuss and we'd never hear about it.

I had a girlfriend when I lived in the house. Crazy parties. Lots of drugs but as you say, nothing like this. However. In hindsight the languaged we used and laughed about was all leading in this direction. This has to end. Women should not be afraid to go to school.

Maybe not where you saw, but frats were always involved with incidents with my friends.I had to barge past the line outside the door to grab my friend and bundle her outside to the car.They even tried to stop me from getting into the car.She didn’t make a charge for rape as she was too afraid/shamed

No. This happened 50 years ago. Women did not talk about it because they knew nothing would be done except "why were you there," "what were you wearing, drinking, doing," and "you're to blame." We didn't have social media or as many female journalists. Men do have better date rape drugs now.

No they haven't. Your unawareness and lack of witness to a problem doesn't mean the problem didn't exist. Women have been raped and assaulted with impunity forever. Nothing has gotten worse or better.

Heard a piece on NPR this morning about this case. There was a lot of talk about her behavior. Not one mention of the 7 rapists’ behavior. Note to the media: DO BETTER Women are not mad. Women are not angry. We are fucking enraged. #NOMORE

I’ve always asked myself why on what ground men try to explain or pontificate rape. I have a friend that was raped once and she was miserable for a long time. Never occurred to me to relativize the incident. Ever.

#Cornell12 because us SA survivors want rapist protectors jailed too: Michael I. Kotlikoff, President Brian White, General Counsel Ryan T. Lombardi, Vice President for Student and Campus Life Robert A. Harrison, Provost for Medical Affairs, Dean of Weil Cornell Medicine DA Matthew Van Houten

Then it’s the Cornell 67 when you add the chat group. And the Cornell 68 when you add the DA. And you’re well into the Cornell 80 when you add the university police. And the Cornell 100 with the city cops and other line prosecutors…

cornell 57*. fuck every last one of those shitbags who did nothing too. and my wife knows all too well about those parties at cornell, unfortunately, and this incident is nothing new or unique. it happens every fucking weekend there. and being reminded of her experiences makes me want to kill.

It’s nice to know that you believe that women don’t have the responsibility and autonomy to consent to such things. All we need to do is put them in handmaid‘s tale outfits now. 

I think one more thing should be added to this for perspective. The orange man, called the President, is an adjudicated rapist, and the majority of America voted for him. It’s a signal to men it’s ok and the women who voted for him, I will never understand that.

Only thing I’m commenting with is let’s make sure that not just the 7 are investigated, but everyone involved that touched that case and allowed them to get off with writing an essay. I guarantee there’s women in their pasts with stories that need to be told. Otherwise, just listen.

I always bring up the episode of Sex and the City, when Carrie is dating so-called enlightened male Aidan. Carrie explains to Aidan the multiple scenarios she has gamed out in her head should a rapist break into her apartment. He is flabbergasted. Even though EVERY woman does this. & he's "good"

I know, even the enlightened guys struggle. A therapist at work was angry with a teen female client who acts out a lot. She got pregnant & needed an abortion. Saw him laughing about it with another man by the water cooler & went ballistic on em

I raised my for sons that way too.I was a single parent. They are all over the age of 40 and passing their feminism on to their children. My sons have seen the struggle and understood what being a decent human was. There is hope only if you speak up and change a generation - or 2 take care, ty💙

Men can't explain the cornell 7 better than we can NOR do they consider the woman victim, yet she is THE ONLY ONE who actually matters All we hear of her is that she was drunk -an implicit statement that this was her fault - THAT is the male narrative SO DO NOT TALK TO US ABOUT THE CORNELL 7

I would like to explain that they do not represent me or the men I know and love. And I would like to pontificate that castration should NOT be taken off the table for those despicable fucks.

Bro it’s really easy to not rape. I don’t understand how these filthy redpill micropenis losers defend this shit. Don’t rape. That’s all. Treat women with respect and make them laugh and they’ll kiss you willingly. I’d hang these 7.

uh I have had it, thrice so far, and Ill tell you the one thing Ive learned, if youre male and this happens, noone gives a fuck. No one single one.

Thank you. Every time we leave the house. The house we selected because of its safe location. Housing allows dogs and cats, bigger dogs for some of us because we need someone who will protects us, no matter who the aggressor is. Our laws protect the 2’d amendment gun rights of men arrested for DV.
