Equal rights for heterosexuals...
« on: May 05, 2009, 03:23:57 PM »
Oh, I wish it were that simple. No my friends, nothing these days is. Life on campus is going co-ed, very co-ed. And it's a growing trend. I don't know about you folks but when I was a young man in college I did not consider myself "gender neutral" (I wanted every woman I saw) and in fact still don't. These days I seek out women with brains, humor, hotness and shared values, which is also not "gender neutral".

Gender neutrality carried to extremes at Stanford

Here’s a new twist on college undermining the values of its students while parents pay dearly for the privilege.  According to Karin Venable Morin, writing on NRO, the formerly great University of Chicago, as well as Stanford University, where her daughter is a senior, now routinely and randomly place young men and women in the same room. That’s right, in the same bedroom. Ms. Morin refers to it as “co-ed within the room.” She has a daughter at Stanford and learned of the novel arrangement in a phone call from her daughter, which she later related to her incredulous mother-in-law:

Quote
“She’s sharing a room with one other girl and two boys,” I said.
“You mean a suite.”
“No,” I said. “I mean a bedroom.”
My mother-in-law couldn’t believe it.
“But wait,” I said. “It gets worse. She didn’t ask for this room arrangement. She missed the room meeting because she had a friend visiting from the East Coast. She appointed a proxy, and said she wanted a room with no smoking and no sex in the room, but she didn’t ask for a single-sex room.”

From the NRO link, “Gender Neutral Housing Policy” defined...

According to the Stanford website, in order to create a more welcoming atmosphere for transgender and homosexual students, a “pilot program” for “gender neutral housing” has been implemented for this academic year.

“The Gender Neutral option will be available in four diverse upperclass undergraduate residences.” They were named; my daughter’s dorm was not one of them.

“These residences were chosen . . . [because they] have rooms available which allow each gender roommate to have a separate private sleeping space.”
“Students must state that they commit to the gender neutral rooming option.”
“Students must have a specific roommate or roommates in mind prior to the in house draw.”
“Students will not be matched with a random opposite gender roommate through this process.”

Thus Stanford claimed to be implementing, for a specific, narrow purpose, a carefully delineated pilot program. However, my daughter’s situation clearly did not meet the terms of this housing policy.

What say you folks? Kooky hippy liberal pipe dream of forced androgyny or "equal rights for heterosexuals", which sounds suddenly not so funny a term after all?
"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed."

When they get their ass sued off in a few sexual assault cases, they may reconsider.  After the damage is done, of course.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Being a guy, it might sound good in theory, but I don't think I'd want to do it, at least not knowing what I know now.  Women can be disgusting pigs. :bolt:

Seriously you might get some feminazi that would accuse a guy of harrassment for just looking at her wrong. In the end, I think most of the guys that do it will turn out to be gay .
