The two guest speaker from the women’s center were very informative, and I learned a lot of valuable information from them. It is evident that rape and sexual assault are rarely talked about in our cultural, thus it is sickening that many women in college will face being sexually assaulted. Not only are women at risk, but the LGBTQ community are too at a high risk of encountering these acts. It is clear that our culture oppresses against woman in college and the LGBTQ communityt because they are at the highest risk of encountering these act. Something needs to happen because nobody should have to be raped, beaten, or sexually assaulted. Our society should stop hiding that these problems exists, and we should start looking at ways to prevent

Many of these scenarios are every day occurrences for the average college student. When they talked about a guy grabbing the girls butt at a party, it was interesting to hear what our classmates responses were. I have encounter this type of behavior before; however, I am the type of person that is not afraid to tell someone to stop. It amazes me that many men in our culture find it okay to treat woman like objects; furthermore, I could never imagine my fiancé treating any women like they are an object. I believe that our media and upbringing is a huge problem with the way men behave towards women. Men are taught to be strong-willed, masculine, and the bread-makers in our society; however, this causes many men to be afraid of showing any emotions. We should be more accepting of men showing their emotions because it shows us that they are capable of being compassionate. It is evident that not all men have this outrageous perspective of women; however, there are far too many in our society that do.

I have never seen that video before, and the video was truly hard to watch because rape is such a real thing in our society. I thought it was amazing that Lady Gaga chose to take on a topic that no one wants to talk about, and I believe this is truly a great step in the right direction for our society. We need to realize that rape in colleges are a huge problem in our society, and that something needs to be done to prevent it from happening. It was sickening to see how people that are raped go into depression so quickly. It is disheartening that they often blame themselves, and that they completely isolate themselves from their friends and family. I also find it sad that some people are forced to quick school because the rape is too hard to overcome. I am thankful that our college has a women’s center because it is important for people who face sexual abuse and/or assault to have someone to consult with. Overall, I was taken back by Lady Gaga’s video; I thought it addressed a topic that many are not willing to talk about; furthermore, I hope that this video will be an eye-opener to many people in our society. Rape is a real thing, thus something must be done to prevent
