One of the white knight/ male feminist kids I know posted the Jezebel response to this on his FB. I just responded saying that the original article was spot on. The short haired outrage has already started...

Loved the part where he calls out universities for scapegoating greek life while similar events occur all over the place.

That article was too honest. Nobody can handle the truth nowadays. I had a discussion with my chapter brothers - they said it was brilliant. We want to drink, party and bang sluts and kicking drunk whores out is the best way to ensure we don't get in deep shit.
I may do a post/ submit an article to RoK on why the attack on fraternities indicates the death of American values. Fraternities are essentially a breeding ground for future leaders and prove that synergy works wonders. The person I was as a pledge and the person I am now are completely different. Take away Greek Life and you take away many men's chance of becoming better versions of themselves.
But feminists do tend to attack men deemed attractive, because they hate masculinity with a strong vigor. Even if colleges do ban fraternities, they will continue to exist as secret organizations. No way in hell a lot of them are selling/ renting out houses to GDIs. And they will maintain chapters even when fraternities are banned, it'll just be without letters outside the house or on clothes.

I am a former fraternity member and I generally disagree on the sorority girl stereotype of being incredibly slutty and whatnot.
Sorority girls may be slightly sluttier than GDI's on average... but the sluttiest chicks and the biggest groupies were always GDI's.
I'll say this....I know of several girls that were passed around from guy to guy during my time. Girls that were called president slayers, etc etc. Independents slut it up with everyone but many sorority girls would only fuck guys in fraternities and even certain fraternities for some of them.

I'm inclined to agree. Sororities are hesitant to invite a serious power slut into their fold.

My college had a lot of bullshit rules about drinking that drove nearly all the good parties off campus anyway. Campus security in general were bigger assholes than even cops.

It's incredible that the reaction to this article was so sudden and violent. This is one of the most polite and reasoned articles that I have ever read! It treads extremely carefully not to offend anyone and always insists on not judging anyone, but even so the author was sacked. It's ludicrous. Our society is truly fucked up...

This guy needs our support. I'm going to email Forbes asking why they had deleted an honest article and fired a writer for his honest thoughts, where is their integrity, are they journalists or click baiting whores

There is certainly some larger players behind all of this. I think this goes above the feminists we all know and hate, if such a well respected journalist gets fired for something so well written and so well thought out.

Will there ever be any mainstream pushback to this pseudo-Orwellian bullshit? Seriously, fucking Forbes? Who falls next, Wall Street Journal, National Review?
I'm beginning to think that conservatives, libertarians, and even moderates will not get their shit together and start elbowing for their rhetoric and viewpoints to be respected, and the door will simply close forever.

Sounds like I had a different experience than others. The stories of hazing for pledges of sororities are bad enough.
Could be because I went to a large university in the South.

The title did him in. Serious. Majority of feminists wouldn't of read it if it was titled differently. If he would of taken a page from buzzfeed he would of been fine. You always have to have a level of cover, he showed his hand to honestly from the start. A title such as:
"Important questions to ask about American fraternities going forward, they are in serious trouble and here is why..."
Would of been enough to skate around lazy editors and rabid bored feminists.

This is fucking disgusting. This thought police bullshit needs to stop. ROK should reach out to this guy because that article he wrote was very sensible and honestly one of the least offensive things I could imagine reading and yet because it touched on female responsibility and the lack of it on campuses... it has to go. Fuck that.
