Brooklyn College prof: boys aren't men unless they sexually assault someone at school

Mitchell Langbert, a business professor at Brooklyn College who looks like a cross between Ray Liotta and an angry fermented potato, writes that "If someone did not commit sexual assault in high school, then he is not a member of the male sex."

The blog post was reposted in a private group for some 5,000 students and alumni.

Some students were outraged. Corrinne Greene said her campus group, Young Progressives of America, wants Langbert fired."To have someone in a position of power espousing sexual assault is not a joke. It's something that needs to be taken seriously," she said.

Brooklyn College Provost Anne Lopes called the comments in the post abhorrent and counter to the values of the school community.

"However, the First Amendment to the United States Constitution protects even speech that many experience as offensive, such as the faculty member's post," she said. Lopes added that officials will plan a forum to discuss the issue.

I've reproduced his original post verbatim below, as failing to provide the full context would otherwise invite accusations of context-shifting or (as the case may be) of failing to understand that it is supposed to be "satire."

Kavanaugh

If someone did not commit sexual assault in high school, then he is not a member of the male sex. The Democrats have discovered that 15-year- olds play spin-the-bottle, and they have jumped on a series of supposed spin-the-bottle crimes during Kavanaugh's minority, which they characterize as rape, although no one complained or reported any crime for 40 years.
