"We are encouraged that more cadets and midshipmen made reports of sexual assault this year,"

And who could guess that the outcome would be more reports. Also consider that changes in definitions may have impacts.

And lastly putting hormone active young adults together in stressful situations is asking for trouble. Such as how many of the reports were from females that are now part of one time male only units (e.g., submarines)?

Co-ed dorms and classes . . . what could possibly go wrong? . . . Never should have allowed women in the academies.

More assaults are happening everywhere not just in military.

Civility is breaking down.

still haven't found it, but here's a clue for the spike ...?

It cites the experience of an unnamed male freshman at the U.S. Naval Academy.

Obviously the only solution is to have even more crossdressing training and events to raise sexual harassment and assault awareness. Don’t ask me what the female cadets should wear, regular uniforms with comfortable and sensible dress shoes guess.

Y’know when the NFL changes its measurement criteria for QB-ratings suddenly everybody is a statistician. But when a public institution changes the way it collects data on sexual assault or encourages reporting then suddenly we’re not supposed to question the validity of a ‘spike’?

Studies I’ve seen in the past suggest strongly that this type of environment - where there is both advantage to making a claim, while minimizing repercussions if false - greatly increases the proportion of false claims.

How many of these claims are actually legitimate?”

Beyond that, you’re going to get assaults when you mix men and women in that kind of environment. Not a pretty truth, but still truth.

Yep, that was my thoughts exactly. Everything is considered a sexual assault now, and girls use it as a way to secure special considerations.

Letting women in the military academies was a stupid idea. The upside is small. The downside is huge. Political correctness in the military is harmful just as it is to the rest of society.
