University of Melbourne college publishes student's account of rape

A University of Melbourne residential college has taken the unprecedented step of publishing a student’s account of being raped within its grounds.

It’s believed to be the first time the 137-year-old Ormond College – which was the scene of the 1992 sexual harassment scandal documented in Melbourne writer Helen Garner’s The First Stone – has published a first-hand account of sexual assault.

The piece was included in an annual publication of student work and written by 20-year-old University of Melbourne student and Ormond resident Ellie, who does not want her last name published.

Anyone else hear about this trend of Universities using the balance of probabilities to determine sexual assault allegations made on Campus.

So our Justice system uses beyond reasonable doubt. But now you can be cleared of allegations by the Law but still found guilty by a kangaroo court at a University.

Plenty of ambitious and aggressive Feminists who'll exploit that. Remember that University survey that concluded some 90% of female students had been sexually assaulted.

Geepers, this is just wrong. Even the Law Society is speaking out against it.
 

I would assume that if a student was thrown out of a course they should be able to sue the University or the accusers like Geoffry Rush is now doing to newspapers.

If it gets down to he ,she said without other evidence, that's a sad state for the justice system.
 
Cost and time wasted. Fighting defamation costs a lot, for little benefit.
 
How is Yumi Stynes an appropriate person to host an SBS tv documentary examining sexism?

And where is the Sisterhood fighting for Asia Bibi?
 
Yea, big deal, typical of News Corp, not allowed to take the piss anymore.
The dating app stuff that happens in the doco is just shocking.

Should get News Corp hack Peta Credlin to host it instead. She ensured no women in Cabinet and now she is out of power she is still attacking Liberal women regularly. If she had her way the Libs would only have Conchetta left.

She should watch this doco but won't as she is tribalism at its worst.

10 years ago the Libs had a party membership 49% women 51% men. It now is officially 43% women 57% men. In Melbourne it is 41% women 59% men.

The Liberals have got to stop being influenced by News Corp and modernise quickly.

Way to win elections.

You mean like "..Don't shag them [men] then". Sen Leyonhjelm found the hilarity disappeared when 'taking the piss' went in the opposite direction

Does that make my response wrong? No.

You just pushed the partisan response. Newscorp and others are just encouraging the natural tribal nature of humans in order to make money and gain power.

Stuffing the USA at present. Not working quite as well in Australia.

That is the genius of Murdoch. The power of hate.

If this was the other way around, it would be discrimination, but to the ABC it's obviously right.

Perhaps the "right" way of doing things is like the 1980's as per the last paragraphs of that article? Or maybe 100 years ago when women simply couldn't be lawyers?

Justice McColl said when she started her career in the Crown Solicitor's Office in 1972, there were only one or two other female solicitors and when she went to the bar in 1980 there were only 20 female barristers.
 
Past generations of our society may have experienced misogyny, but generally there is a reverve misogyny in our society nowadays. Men are the soccer balls from my experience.
Yes I know we can post isolated cases against this, but in the grand scheme of things on a daily basis, there is more reverse misogyny nowadays.
 
Anyone noticed how many tv ads these days are totally devoid of men ?

Hotel bookings, Carlton beer, lots of them.

Seems like men are advertising poison these days.

It will be interesting to see how far the culture can go in the direction of misandry before the majority of people see it. Most people still can't and it seems it'll have to get a lot more blatant yet.
 
It's complex. It's not uniform.
Plenty of misandry still out there. Even in Canberra. I think in 20 years time though it will be interesting. Matriachal society?
 
Men usually have better things to do than bitching on FB or the ASF about discrimination . The silent majority effet. But as we are below 50%, not a majority so we have lost from the start...what a different hell this will become especially in politics: Dutton knifing will be described as kids play

The old advertising principle used to be that a female was more trustworthy, I guess due to everyone having a Mother.
Now I'm immediately suspicious of a female in advertising - trust is gone due to Feminists attempts to dominate using any means whether flirting, manipulating, bullying etc.
