Misogyny is real. Rape culture is real. There is no disputing that.
A word of caution for people pushing to make it easier to sanction/expel people accused of Title IX violations at US colleges:
My firm does these Title IX cases. An extremely disproportionate number of our clients have been LGBTQ+ people who have had Title IX weaponized against them.
Every time you ratchet up punitive systems, the people who first and most feel the effect are oppressed people.
