We’re not a monolith and plenty of women can be just as bone headed as men - because we’re human and prone to the same blind spots and prejudice as anyone else. Plenty of women will nod their heads in agreement when the topic turns to rape, and nod their head sagely when someone brings up not wearing a short skirt or going to frat parties or drinking in public.
Why not just say students, or people, or Penn State partisans? And if you knew you’d “catch flack” why put it out there? What do we gain by that distinction you made, do you think?
As for turning over rocks, it’s my life and I assure you, I generally don’t have to seek out BS, it generally just drops in my lap. I wish it weren’t so, believe me. I’d prefer to go through life NOT having to think about this stuff, as it’s depressing and will likely lead me to an early grave. But there it is. I can’t not think about it, because it’s there daily.
