Female student pens scathing review of 'rape culture' for college course

From Ashe Schow at The Washington Examiner:
A pre-med student attending college in California has penned a scathing review of the current climate surrounding sexual assault on college campuses.

The student, who wishes to remain anonymous, wrote her essay in response to a public-health class assignment asking students to watch a video in which Emma Sulkowicz, the former Columbia University student who carried a mattress around protesting what she claimed was rape, discusses her mattress project. .................

The student responded by condemning Sulkowicz's behavior as "a parody of all the worst parts of radical or 'Tumblr' feminists" and said she was "ashamed to even belong to the same species as her." The student was outraged by Sulkowicz's accusation, especially after having followed the accused student's side closely.

"Not only was Emma's false accusation abhorrent and did she inflict physical and emotional trauma on Paul [the man Sulkowicz accused], but her response to the widespread media attention is the most immature and attention-seeking action she could've possibly taken," the student wrote.

The student's evidence for Sulkowicz's attention-seeking behavior was the fact that she claimed to be deeply traumatized and triggered by things that remind her of the incident, but spent every day reminding herself of what allegedly happened. "Furthermore," the student wrote, "why would she produce a porno of her 'rape' that would've forced her to relive all of those emotions once again?"

The student insisted there was "an extremely valid and rational explanation" for why neither Columbia University nor the police department held the accused student accountable: Because he didn't rape her. The student also called Sulkowicz's continued campaign "a form of self-victimization."
This female pre-med student has single handily destroyed, through simple logic, any credibility Sulkowicz and other radical feminist, who support her, that Sulkowicz is anything other than a narcissistic publicity whore.
