OT Grant High School teacher's 'rape culture' paper sparks controversy

http://www.oregonlive.com/portland/...gh_school_teachers_rap.html#incart_river_home

Other than the fact that I don't really understand why he wrote it and circulated it..... I don't really see anything wrong with what he said.

He says rape is a "heinous crime," but he doesn't believe that rape culture exists. He says that he has never met anyone who thought that rape was a good thing.

The comments from the school make no sense.

"included some statements that run counter to the way we approach this important subject. The perspective of the teacher does not reflect nor support our approach to educating students on sexual assault. A strong contradictory argument should be accompanied by counter arguments from credible sources.

"In this case, the document was shared with many students and staff with very little context. We apologize for any harm or negative impact. We are working with students and some staff members to organize listening sessions and opportunities for adults and students to get support. It is our primary goal to ensure Grant is a safe place for all."

What did he say that makes Grant less safe? The whole rape culture thing strikes me as another excuse to paint men as inherently evil and predatory. Just because this dude said that he doesn't think that there's a rape culture doesn't suddenly make the students less safe. That's absurd.

Either way... he's fucked. Dude is toast. I hope he doesn't apologize for his opinions. I just have no idea why he would publish it and pass it around. That part doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

 

There is no rape culture. Its fucking ridiculous.

 

Mr. Lickey is woke.

 

No no, we need to educate women to fear men and think of them as scary predators.... and we need to make men feel bad about themselves and apologize for being inherently evil.

 

Questioning libtards paranoid delusions = you are a nazi/rapist/racist piece of shit

 

There is a rape culture, it just isn't in the west, it's in other parts of the world.

 

Islam is the religion of consent.

So the two teachers involved in this are 2 of The HCP Jr's teachers at Grant.

Mr. Lickey taught along side my dad there for 20 years. He was my wife's english teacher as well. Quality guy. Mr. Leeman went to Grant with me and is also a great guy. Whole neighborhood is buzzing about this. GHS is as liberal as they come. Parents were talking about this all during my daughters soccer game yesterday. Interesting to see how this pans out.

lol. They provided a Safe Space! #triggered

schools today are a fucking cesspool of politically correct pussy ass cracka shit.

 

Whenever they pull these statistics for "women that are sexually assaulted", it is often a self assessment survey meaning that there is really no litmus or definition of sexual assault.

 

Its not quantifiable. Its whatever they interpret sexual assault to mean, therefore the statistics are invalid. It could be anywhere from some guy looking at them the wrong way to forcible rape.

 

I can't know for sure. Its entirely possible though since it is basically a self-reported self-assessment.
