Psychologist, cure thyself.
I think it's time to assume that this kind of thing is a hoax by the racial grievance mongers, until proven otherwise.

We assessed ratings of nine themes in commercial pornography to test feminist theory about what is degrading to women in pornography. Ninety-four female and 89 male college student volunteers rated nine brief excerpts of sexually explicit material. Seven of the nine themes depicted two types of inequalities--actiue subordination and status inequality; one theme depicted female indiscriminate availability; and one theme depicted equal sex. Participants viewed the themes either with or without accompanying definitions. Consistent with feminist theory, both men and women who viewed the excerpts rated active subordination more degrading than status inequalities and both types of inequalities more degrading than sexually explicit material with equality, with one qualification. Women rated all inequalities and availability more degrading than equal sex, whereas men rated active subordination themes and status inequalities more degrading than nonreciprocated sex, female availability, and equal sex. In general, video clips without the definitions were rated as degrading as those presented with definitions, with some variations in ratings of status inequality themes. Suggestions for future research to assess degrading aspects of pornography are provided.
Social influence strategies among Japanese and American college women. Kerri F. Dunn, Gloria Cowan.
Psychology of Women Quarterly March 1993 v17 n1 p39(14)
Social influence strategies of 40 Japanese and 41 American college women were compared. With the use of a free-response format, respondents were asked to describe how they get their way with their mother, father, male teacher/boss, female teacher/boss, male friends, and female friends. Contrary to expectations, content analysis indicated that Japanese women reported using strong and neutral strategies more frequently and weak strategies less frequently than American women. American women used manipulation (especially sexual manipulation) more frequently and reasoning less frequently than Japanese women. Analyses by target of influence indicated that these differences were not found when the target was a female friend but were demonstrated across most of the other targets.
Why not? Any other person that had evidence of these crimes against them that this woman had would be arrested and their faces would be all over the news.
I live in Orange County. We have two 12 or 13 year old girls sitting in jail right now. Why? One of them didn't want to get in trouble for being late, so they conspired to accuse someone of attacking them. The police were called, and they did a lineup. The girls had decided before seeing the men in the lineup that they would both pick #5. #5 was then convicted and spent months in jail.
How far was this woman willing to take her hoax. Was she going to allow an innocent person to go to jail for a crime that never happened?
So once again, why wasn't she taken into police custody?
I'm Pitzer College, class of 95. Been getting emails on this "hate crime" for days. I sooooo haven't been giving a damn about it. But this is hilarious.
My latest email:
******************************************************************* Alumni Newsbytes Distribution List ******************************************************************* We apologize to all alumni who received a handful of emails last week following our announcement regarding the hate crime that took place in Claremont. We experienced a glitch with our email server which allowed anyone on the recipients list the ability to send email through the distribution list. The Alumni Office would also like to offer our sincere apologies to Jeanne Gural '00 graduate of the New Resources program. Because of this glitch, Jeanne was placed in a situation of having a private message publicly displayed. This alumni-newsbytes list is intended for limited communication from the Alumni Office only, and is not meant to be a discussion distribution list, and we apologize for the barrage of emails generated last week. The Alumni Office encourages open discussion, debate and the sharing of thoughts and feelings, and we invite you to make use of the Alumni Talk Discussion Forum: Please use this place for thoughtful and respectful exchange and dialogue in the Pitzer spirit. ******************************************************************* Recent Events In Claremont - UPDATE ******************************************************************* Press release from the Claremont Police Department: HATE CRIME INCIDENT ON MARCH 9TH, 2004 Detectives from the Claremont Police Department and Agents from the FBI are continuing to follow-up on many leads regarding the hate crime incident that occurred on 3-9-04 at the Claremont Colleges. As a result of the continuing investigation, several witnesses to the incident have come forward and provided significant information. The Claremont Police Department is urging any additional witnesses or anyone with information relating to this incident to contact either Lieutenant Stan Van Horn or Detective Eric Huizar at (909) 399-5420.
As the investigation continues Pitzer administration, faculty and students continue to explore issues related to tolerance and to discuss ways that an academic community can address these issues in our world.
Quote from Pitzer College President Laura Skandera Trombley at a rally on the Mounds last Wednesday: "These events are tragic, disturbing and unacceptable. They have created a climate of fear in people and made us less secure in our community. The hate crime that occurred last night deeply affects our mission and personal safety. The vicious, hateful crime was designed to destroy the heart of our community, but as long as I am president of this college I will not let it happen. As one faculty member reminded me, we are the conscience of the Claremont Colleges consortium. I believe we are the leader. People who commit these kinds of acts will not succeed in their aim."
I have a Master's in History from that insane asylum and I can tell you, this is typical of the Alice-in-Wonderland faculty they have in that hate factory.
This is the same group of institutions that instituted a policy that redefined rape as any sexual experience on the campus complex that a woman regretted at any time in the future.
This resulted in a Pomona College student publicly accused during the graduation ceremonies one year, being arrested and having his diploma witheld. Turned out the accusation was as bogus is this one is, but imagine having to spend time in jail on a rape charge until all this crap got sorted out.
That place is a madhouse, pure and simple.
