I think most of us know that the modern college/university campus (and not just the "liberal" ones, either) is a very strange place, not merely "set apart" from the rest of society but rejecting it and denouncing it, frequently to the point of hysteria.
Well, at least at Yale, the sh*t just keeps getting weirder and weirder...

How can women join special forces when they can’t even handle frat-boy pranks?
It was just a matter of time before the successful Navy SEAL operation against Osama bin Laden on May 1 provoked a complaint that SEAL teams are all-male. Sure enough, Washington Post pundit (and founder of the feminist website Jezebel.com) Anna Holmes came through last week with a column denouncing the “paternalistic, discriminatory” exclusion of women from special-operations units and comparing that exclusion to racial segregation. If you’d like to get a full picture of feminist thought today, just combine Holmes’s column with the ongoing farce at Yale University, which is under federal investigation for allegedly denying female students equal educational opportunities. Not only has the rise of women to positions of power and control in American society not dented feminist irrationality, it seems to have exacerbated that irrationality.
Two of Holmes’s sources concede that female recruits trying to join special forces would have to be held to the same physical standards as males (a hollow admission, given the lowering of physical standards in fire departments across the country to accommodate women). But mental stamina is just as important to a special-ops team member, who needs the fortitude to withstand threats, verbal and physical abuse, and possibly even torture—and that’s just in boot camp. Here is where the Yale situation comes in...

Seems like the administration handled it well enough so why involve the feds?

It is more than just sexualized language that suffers from this anomaly. It's any group that has language accepted within the group but not by people outside the group. Blacks, gays ..... Any group that is considered a minority can seek Title IX relief. Exception .... male white people.

I guess I didn't realize that white males were a minority.

That's kinda what happens when you happen to have all of the rest of the power.

You prefer to think that equal protection does not extend to the majority.
Now cut the crap, Roberta, this is way over your head. You have no comprehension of anything sexual, except that with your blow up doll. You are part of a very narrow perverted group. The useful idiot lefters that are poor, under-educated and easily led.

I think equal protection should be given to everyone-even you-but that is not what your post said. It said that white males were a minority. I suppose there is probably a way to spin it so that it is true.

I know you think you were being cute but....
There are 96 White men for every 100 White women in the US... Thus the true "Majority" in the nation is white Women and white men are a minority...
