I am appalled at the way certain students have chosen to vent their concerns about our Student Association and other matters.

Do you think someone who has "attended BCIT for 1 1/2 years... and has seen Les Merson Susan Spence nothing done for me... and have received nothing in return" is a typical student? I think it reflects badly on the whole sludent body and insults our intelligence when someone chooses lo deal with matters in such an The Unk is owned by the immature maimer. I also feel that these people are out of line complaining about Shinerama.

The UNK, March 4-17, 1992 G AMPUS SAFEnr What about BCIT? He Said^ She Said There has been concern on the BCIT campus over the women's safety posters that have gone missing. They went up only a short while ago and now most of them have disappeared. It seems excerpted from strange that anyone would bother taking down the posters but this has raised some coDcerns about Project on the Status and Education of Women attitudes on campus. Bob: "Patty and I were in the same statistics class together. She ustially sat near me and was always very friendly. 1 liked her and To And out what the opinions were on campus about date/campus rape we interviewed some of the male student body. Here's what they said: thought maybe she liked me, too. Last Thursday I decided to find out. After class I suggested that she come to my place to study for midterms together. She agreed immediately, which was a good sign. it "...It's disgusting that even happens... I was happy to hear that Mike Tyson got nailed." That night everything seemed to go perfectly. We studied for a while and then took a break. I could tell that she liked me, and 1 was "...My girlfriend has a night class on Wednesdays and I always make sure that I walk her to her attracted lo her. I was getting excited. 1 staned kissing her. 1 could class and pick her up... It's dennitely something I think about." tell that she really liked it. We started touching each other and it felt really good. All of a sudden she pulled away and said, 'Slop.' I "...Girls are weaker and should W9tch out for themselves, like watch the way they dress, going home figured she didn't want me to think that she was "easy" or "loose." A with some guy that don't really know... stuffiike that." lot of girls think they have to say 'no' at first. I knew once I showed here what a good time she could have, and that I would respect her in "...It worries me because it promotes man bashing, there are creeps out there bu what about the the morning, it would be OK. I just ignored her protests and majority of decent guys? We are also getting stomped on." eventually she stopped struggling. I think, she liked it but afterwards she acted bunmied out and was cold. Who knows what her problem "...It's sort of tricky because what are the boundaries? I think the girl should let a guy know what's was?" she's interested in before they go out..."

After a while I stopped struggling; he was hurting me and 1 was scared. He "...I'm sick of hearing about it. I doubt it happens that much." was so much bigger and stronger than me. I couldn't believe it was happening to me. I didn't know what to do. He acmally forced me to "...I know a girl got cornered at a party last weekend but she really told him off... I'm sure most have sex with him. I guess looking back on it I should have screamed women stick up for themselves." or done something besides trying to reason with him but it was so unexpected.

The UNK, Mardi 4-17, 1992 Sexual Assault How Big an Issue is it?

By Cheryl Peck

Sexual assault is currently a very heated and controversial issue. Clarence Thomas, Willie Smith, and Mike Tyson have all been recently involved in highly publicized cases of women speaking out against violence. These shocking accounts of sexual assault may have been seasationalized by the media but they represent a very important part of the sexual revolution. Women are now being encouraged to speak out against sexual abuse; it is not longer the silent issue of earlier decades. But with all this recent attention a question still remains; is date rape a major problem in our society? Well, that can be a difficult question to measure because around 90% of all sexual assaults committed are never reported. The following are the statistics that have come to attention in Canada and North America:

• A woman is raped every 29 minutes in Canada • A woman is sexually assaulted every 6 minutes masculine trait. On the other hand, the majority of dealt with openly to nol strain the relationships • 84% of the women who are sexually assaulted know their women are socialized to be more dependent, passive,betwee n the sexes. attacker, 57% of these assaults happened on dates and "ladylike" which involves not making a scene. • Approximately 7,000 students on 32 campuses nationwide Men are encouraged to explore their sexual feelings What is being done for rape victims? found that 1 in 8 women were victims of rape. 1 in 12 men whereas women are first taught that "good girls don't WAVAW (Women Against Violence Against admitted to having physically forced intercourse. fool around" and are discouraged against sexual Women) is a non-profit organization that has • The majority of these victims are between the ages of 15 and 25 experimentation.

Alcohol can cause a person lo become more sexually aggressive or more vulnerable but that is not the main element of date rape. Mixed signals are probably the most RHONA responsible factor. The woman acts in a certain manner that makes the man think she is open for sex. The "no means maybe" syndrome is often RASKIN to blame and with this attimde held by people such as Supreme Court host of Justice Sherman hood, the sexual assault issue becomes even more sex, lies, and confusing. audiotape in person What are the causes of date rape?
