"Racial Insensitivity" at UChicago

REALLY? And do you also believe that the women that get raped were asking for it, and secretly enjoyed it?</p>

<p>I am actually super shocked about how so many people are up in arms about the Mexican comment, calling it racist etc., but do not care whether the female population of a college is being called whores, whatever the spelling.
Guess what, in Chicago area, a majority of outdoor laborers are Mexican. Nothing wrong whatsoever in honest manual labor. And if frats cant distinguish a Mexican man from a Guatemalan, too bad for them. Shows their lack of geo-political understanding. I do understand where some people would be offended by that, and believe that that kind of stereotyping should not take place.</p>

<p>However, having parties with females always being portrayed in a very demeaning way is completely unacceptable in our society. And shame on you, some of the long time posters on CC that have glossed over this much more serious issue, in favor of making comments about the other one.

</p>

<p>did you really just compare someone getting raped to someone choosing what kind of clothes to wear and choosing to go to a certain party? The women on college campuses choose to attend these events. They are free to choose not to as well.</p>

<p>Why is it completely unacceptable? Unacceptable to who? Again, if all the women on campus thought it was unacceptable, they would not attend. Right?</p>

<p>Furthermore, it is hilarious to me that you find no issues with the racial stereotypes, but plenty of issues with the female stereotypes. BTW, do you have issues with the male stereotypes as well? Surely most males are not “tennis pros” or “CEOs” or “Execs” either.</p>
