Involve putting yourself in the presence of a bunch of idiot frat-boys with nonsensical catchphrases like 'bros before hos' in a culture of sexual conquest and blindly-devotional male bonding... and having to listen to their sexist and infantile bullshit occasionally.
The best I've found to do (as a non-frat lower-middle class east coast left wing film student) is to give them a "Dude, you know that's not cool" and walk away.
And then take a bat to their SUVs when they're not looking.
Sadly, some people take college as a place to stay in their adolescence or moreover revert to a modified kindergarten take on gender politics ('girls are icky... unless they're having sex with me')...
So they get unhealthfully drunk, beat each other with sticks and eat cum-laden crackers to join secret societies.
College can be a theorethical unreality if you allow it to be... and that breeds a lot of insensitive assholes.
It's a sick thing to face down if you haven't in a while.
Honestly, I'd've just walked out had I been giving the speech.
yes, I'm dating a Paglia-style feminist, yes, I'm whipped, yes, she fucks like a demon
