美国大学男生兄弟会的“问题”:如果有机会,你想强奸谁?


佛芒特大学兄弟会“西格马斐厄普西龙”给会员的一份问卷中居然有如此问题! 真叫人无语气绝! 这份秘密问卷被一个新会员不小心泄露出去,引起强烈反弹,立马有3000多人在请愿书上签名,要求校方严肃处理该所兄弟会。日前校方已经临时关闭此会。

问题是,这帮男生,为什么会问出这样的问题呢?是受到谁人指使?是受到谁的影响?父母?同伴?媒体?社会?对女性的暴力,居然会那么理所当然??


Frat suspended after surveying its members on who they would like to rape


Really, Sigma Phi Epsilon? There’s no way the University of Vermont frat really thought it was ok to send a survey to its members asking, “If you could rape anyone, who would it be?” Is there? (Wait, don’t answer that.)

But now that the survey has been leaked to the interwebs–apparently because a new member accidentally emailed it to his teaching assistant (ouch!)–they’re finding out it’s not ok–and fast. Feminists activists at UVM and FED UP Vermont have swiftly mobilized to call for the frat to be shut down.

On their petition, which has gotten over 3,000 signatures now, they write:


This egregious expression of rape culture is only the most recent example of systemic sexism at UVM. The past year alone has witnessed rape, multiple sexual assaults, and anti-abortion chalking in public spaces. While the university administration has laid off long-time Women’s and Gender Studies faculty and supported sexist institutions like Sigma Phi Epsilon, it has refused to take concerted action to combat sexism and rape culture. We demand that instead of diverting resources into vast salaries for its administrators, UVM should launch an aggressive campaign against sexism and rape culture, and it should expand institutions such as Women’s and Gender Studies and the Women’s Center at UVM. Furthermore, UVM must immediately disband Sigma Phi Epsilon. An institution that discusses who it wants to rape has no place at UVM or in the Burlington community.

Yesterday, the university temporarily suspended the frat, pending an investigation. This afternoon, feminists on campus, who are still demanding the frat be shut down for good, held a press conference that drew about 200 people to the steps of the university library. Hopefully they’ll be able to take the convo beyond this one awful example and raise some real awareness about rape culture in their community.
