Quote:As Yale guidelines say, "the goal is to achieve a resolution that is desired by the [accuser]." Generally, we do not have processes in which the goal is to benefit the accuser, and this procedure is designed to give the accuser choice of and control over the process.

For a year, just how "expansive" this definition wasn't wholly clear, until, in its February 2013 report, Yale unveiled a category called "intimate partner violence," which spanned the gap from sexual assault to a student threatening a roommate with "economic abuse."

So in two different ways, Yale has made it considerably more likely that the school's students would be branded rapists. First, it changed procedures to make determinations of guilt more likely (or, in the cases of "informal" complaints, all but certain). Second, it dramatically broadened the definition of sexual assault to include activities that are not, in fact, considered sexual assault in any criminal jurisdiction in the country.

Quote:The editorial asserted that "the preferred punishment for nonconsensual sex at Yale must be expulsion." Again, keep in mind that Yale's definition of "intimate partner violence" includes threatening your roommate with "economic abuse." The "preferred punishment" for such an offense, according to the student newspaper, "must be expulsion." Expulsion for withholding money from a girlfriend or causing her worry? That ought to satisfy the "activists."

Some scary shit.

When Summers was getting sacked at Harvard(for suggesting men might be more prone to stem careers). Yaletards marched on the uni presidents house because he didn't make a public statement. Protest in absence of speech. Men, give em more rope it is fun to watch.

What's ironic about all of this is that Yale girls are just as two-timing as any other chick. They impose these controls on their fellow rich male Yale classmates, but when they go out to ride some alphas you can be sure they aren't imposing any rules on their men they actually have sex with.

I'll never forget the time I pulled a Yale girl out of some sleezy Lower East Side Bar... she had just given her number to some dude who looked like a classmate of hers (it was a massive birthday party and many of her classmates, men and women, were there) and then walked out of the bar with me. My friend who stayed behind said the guy's jaw dropped as she walked out with me.

If these Yale rules are any sign of what the future portends, things are going to get much worse for the American beta.

Aside from stealing someone's money, what could this possibly mean?

If I was at Yale I would try to get labeled with "economic abuse" and then hire a good lawyer and sue the shit of school. I would show them some true economic abuse.

Economic abuse is one of the biggest steaming piles of bullshit to have appeared in feminist writing in recent decade, and is trickling its way down to actual laws and regulations as we speak. It labels literally everything that a woman doesn't like as abuse.

For example, if a man prevents her from using their joint money however she likes, it's abuse. However, it is also abuse if he uses their joint money without asking her for permission. Also, complaining (no, not threatening, manipulating or using force to achieve something - COMPLAINING) about the way the woman spends her money. It's insane.

Of course, it also ignores the fact that, if economic abuse as described is abuse, then women are at least 20x as guilty as men here. Most girls will eagerly nag about money.

"Joint money"?
If you get joint money with a woman, you are asking for it just as much as a scantily clad white girl is by prancing through the Puerto Rican day parade.

Hehe don't worry, even if it's your money and you refuse to give it to her it's still abuse ;-)

I'm still pondering because I live in Croatia, where you can at least have an illusion that things aren't so bad (although we've recently gotten several harsh new laws concerning rape, domestic violence, divorce, paternity, prostituion and so on) copied from Sweden, so you can easily tell which way things are going). Feminism isn't nearly as strong as in USA or Australia here, but it's way stronger than it should be for our level of economic development. Poland is now more developed than Croatia and has much less of it, and Czech Republic is significantly richer and isn't too infested either.

That said, I applaud your decision and wish you all the best!

Must have some sugar babies at Yale that get pissed when they get pumped and dumped.

I'm glad that I went to more conservative schools, even though they are not as famous as Yale.

There might be various definitions to it, but let me take a stab at it:

Refusing to finance the lifestyle of a parasite aka female that we as men must pay for, without questioning anything.
Refusing to allow the female to use our earned hard money as if it were hers. In fact, when you live with a girl, what's yours, it's technically hers as well in the eyes of the law. As well as in her eyes.

And so on and on.
