Is There a 'Rape Culture' on College Campuses? Watch the Debate.

Summary: There is a rape culture on college campuses that creates an unsafe environment for female students." That was the resolution for the Reason-Soho Forum debate at the Subculture Theater in New York's East Village. Arguing in the affirmative was Michael Kimmel, the SUNY distinguished professor of sociology and gender studies at Stony Brook University and multiple books, including the best-selling Guyland: The Perilous World Where Boys Become Men (2009). Taking the negative position was Cathy Young, a contributing editor at Reason magazine, a weekly columnist at Newsday, and a regular contributor to the Jewish Daily Forward and The Weekly Standard. She's also the author of two books: Growing Up in Moscow: Memories of a Soviet Girlhood (1989), and Ceasefire: Why Women and Men Must Join Forces to Achieve True Equality (1999).
