I'm pretty sure this guy is Australian, but you can have him, America.
Yes, it's one article from The Harvard Crimson, but his is a view found across the entire campus.
Rape is not a funny topic, but if this sexual assault rate he cites (31%) is so accurate, parents sending their daughters to Harvard are hilariously ignorant child abusers. "I'm sending my girl to Harvard, where she'll have a 1 in 3 chance of being raped! So proud!"
You definitely wouldn't send your daughter to get milk from the store if she had a 1 in 3 chance of being raped.
And is getting an erection without getting a woman's permission objectifying her, too, to the point of being complicit in rape?

As a male student at the Harvard Kennedy School, I have readily joined the chorus condemning Weinstein and Moore’s disgusting abuse of power. But concentrating criticism on these (rightly) vilified perpetrators reveals a problem with our approach to sexual assault. We are only focusing on some of the people who are responsible for sexual assault. We are ignoring, for example, people like me.
Here’s an example to illustrate what I mean. During Orientation Week in August of 2016, I was out late drinking in Harvard Square with two classmates. The topic switched to the women in our class. Over the drunken hum of the bar’s collective conversation, one guy proposed the “hottest” girls in our class [The closest thing Harvard has to a shitlord]. The other did the same. They both then asked me to rank the girls in our cohort in the order I wanted to get with. My alarmed heart bolted blood to my cheeks. I crossed my arms, unable to speak. “Are we making you uncomfortable?” one asked me. I cannot remember my exact response. But it was not: “Yes. Objectifying women, even though it seems harmless to you, demeans them and creates an environment that makes sexual assault more likely.” Instead, I uncrossed my arms, I shook my head, and yes, I discussed which girls were hot.
...
My silence that night—and in other moments—meant I accepted those comments and therefore an environment of disrespecting women. The same environment in which 87 percent of women aged 18 to 25 have experienced sexual harassment and half of all women are sexually harassed in American workplaces. My silence lies on a continuum of complicity—complicity that allows sexual assault to occur.
