Frats are under seige by drunken women, warns overgrown, overtan frat man on Forbes.com

Frat boys know how to handle their liquor
Frat boys know how to handle their liquor

 

We learned earlier today that evil females are trying to destroy one of the few remaining safe spaces for men in our culture – professional football. Now we learn that evil drunk females have their blurry sights set on another man space: College fraternities.

The brave soul bringing this crucial information to the men of the world? The impressively tan frat man Bill Frezza, who presented his case in a post on Forbes.com with the subtle title

Drunk Female Guests Are The Gravest Threat To Fraternities

Alas, the Femborg Collective must have caught wind of this little breach in security. The piece was quickly taken down, and Frezza was relieved of his duties as a contributor to Forbes. (You can still see the Google cache version here though.)

So what did brother Frezza argue? Basically, that drunken women are actively infiltrating American frats – and threatening to bring them down by being drunk and female. While frat brothers are carefully policed by well-meaning elders like Frezza – the head of the alumni house corporation for his MIT fraternity – the ladies are uncontrolled and uncontrollable:

Fraternity alumni boards, working with chapter officers, employ a variety of policies designed to guide and police member behavior. Our own risk management manual exceeds 22 pages. The number of rules and procedures that have to be followed to run a party nowadays would astound anyone over 40. We take the rules very seriously, so much so that brothers who flout these policies can, and will, be asked to move out. But we have very little control over women who walk in the door carrying enough pre-gaming booze in their bellies to render them unconscious before the night is through.

(Emphasis mine.)

Damn those drunk gals, all liquored-up on booze that our frat brothers didn’t provide, honest, come on we all know those bitches were drunk when they got here right fellas let’s keep our goddamn stories straight.

Yes, boozed up males also show up at parties, sometimes mobs of them disturbing the peace on the front steps. But few are allowed in, especially if they are strangers. … [I]t is … irresponsible women that the brothers must be trained to identify and protect against, because all it takes is one to bring an entire fraternity system down.

So how exactly do these terrible gals do their damage? A variety of devious ways.

Alcohol poisoning due to overconsumption before, during, or after an event. Death or grievous injury as a result of falling down the stairs or off a balcony. Death or grievous injury as a result of a pedestrian or traffic accident as the young lady weaves her way home.

That’s right. Some of these gals are apparently willing to give up their own lives in order to make frats look bad.

Oh, but some use an even more devious weapon:

False accusation of rape months after the fact triggered by regrets over a drunken hook-up, or anger over a failed relationship. And false 911 calls accusing our members of gang rape during a party in progress.

It’s gotten so bad that Frezza feels compelled to tell young frat brothers that maybe it’s not such a good idea to have sex with drunken women, or even to bring them to your room for a game of Jenga.

Never, ever take a drunk female guest to your bedroom – even if you have a signed contract indicating sexual consent. Based on new standards being promulgated on campus, all consent is null and void the minute a woman becomes intoxicated – even if she is your fiancée.

The solution? Lower the drinking age to 18. That’ll show ’em!

No, really.

Unless and until the drinking age is reduced to 18, students relearn how to pace themselves while drinking, and individuals are held responsible for the consequences of their own behavior, rather than blaming the institutions that house and educate them, the only defense is extreme vigilance.

This is how you can tell that Frezza really did go to MIT. Because this is STEM logic at its finest.

Oh, I noticed this at the end of his piece:

Bill Frezza is the President of The Beta Foundation, the house corporation for the Chi Phi fraternity at MIT.

Ha ha, what a beta. He’s so beta he’s the president of Betas.

There are a lot of Youtube videos about people cutting down trees that then fall on their houses. I think the lesson there is hire professionals with liability insurance.

So, GNL, want to explain how “man raping woman” is equivalent to “man has tree fall on him”? Because you’re both dehumanising women and talking as if men’s choice to rape somehow makes them the victims.

If someone drunk came to a party you were holding, would you rape them? Would you then complain about how it was all their fault and they were ruining your reputation?

I love how this article explicitly states that frat houses welcome drunk women through their doors but turn away drunk men. This is supposed to make frats not look like assholes… how exactly?

Off topic, but bookmark this for whenever sometime tries to claim that the Red Pill isn’t just concentrated misogyny:

http://www.np.reddit.com/r/TheRedPill/comments/2hca1j/lots_of_quotes_about_women_to_prevent_relapses/

My favorite quote:

Even when women serve men, they don’t respect them.

Or maybe its this one:
The most difficult intelligence test is the understanding that women have no consciousness.

Not the general lack of citations of any king.

Is it a crazy thought that I should take precautions against and insure against storm damage (A tree falling on my house) Because that is what your attacking here.

No, but it’s a false equivalency. The equivalent would be “drunk people injuring themselves on the premises is a threat to our house, therefore we will take measures to make sure we don’t let drunk people in, or serve alcohol to people who are drunk”.

Kind of like how bars are liable if they serve more alcohol to a drunk person and that person gets hurt, so they will refuse entry or service to people.

This is freaking me out.

A few things. First, MIT is my alma mater. It is, sad to say, a big reason that I am on WHTM today. Because while I have dear friends from college, I also knew a fuckton of proto-MRAs. The MIT frat boys of the 90s sounded almost exactly the same as today’s MRA. Generally not as whiny. Maybe a little more Red Pill juice. But the similarities in attitudes are uncanny.

Second, shortly after I left, MIT became a dry campus. Why? The usual reason. A fraternity pledge died from alcohol poisoning. So apparently drunk college boys are also willing to give their lives to embarrass fraternities. I had thought that MIT had remained dry. This article makes me wonder if that policy recently changed, or if it became an open secret which parties had alcohol?

Basically, this confirms my belief that nothing has changed in the past twenty years. Which leads me to wonder, will anything change in the next twenty years? Goddamn nerdy frat boys.

To keep from completely flaming out, I will say that my female MIT friends are all brilliant and amazing and generally out-awesome me by several orders of magnitude.

Wow. This guy truly know how to insult everyone, huh?

– “all it takes is one to bring an entire fraternity system down”, oh no, my secret conspiracy against fraternity systems has been discovered!!!

– “False accusation of rape months after the fact triggered by regrets” so basically all women are liars to him and doesn’t even consider the self-blaming that goes on through those months, amongst other things, until the victims are brave enough to speak.

– “Never, ever take a drunk female guest to your bedroom”, this actually sounds good.

I don’t think it’s just that he victimizes fraternities and accuses women of being evil liars, but it also reflects the sad conception of men not being able to control themselves, like they’re beasts or something. They’re not.

I almost feel sorry that this man feels like that about men, because that means he thinks really low of himself.

But GNL, You don’t have to get a tree intoxicated to insensibility in order to force yourself on it. You just find a convenient knothole or knob, as per your preference, and enjoy.

I’d advise not trying to pretend that trees are women, GNL. Firstly because of the splinters, and secondly because people will think you’re weirder than they do already.

@ elektra…the other side of telling women how not to get raped?
The unspoken message in that to boys is: we don’t expect you to control your sexuality.
Boys hear that.

Ummmmmm…

I love the way he attempted to hide his ‘real’ motive by prefacing his article with women harming themselves whilst drunk and blaming the frat house before he lead directly into what this is really all about….good ol’ boys being persecuted for gang banging a seemingly willing victim who could barely speak let alone consent to group sex…

I mean….how are these guys supposed to know that an extremely drunk woman may not be in the best situation to decide if she feels like engaging in group sex?

It’s pretty simple guys, if she seems too drunk, she probably is, so stay away.

Granted he was a misogynist in a misogynistic culture (even more so than ours) back then, but I would hope not!

I don’t really understand why this Frezza person is so bent out of shape over preserving the odd (well, odd to me) fraternity system. I went to university in the UK where there isn’t the whole fraternity/frat-boy Greek alphabet thing and it seems to work out just fine.

Students just got divided into ‘Fresher’ in the first year, and then ‘Pisshead’ or ‘Mature Student’ in the latters. As far as I know, not segregating the genders has not caused a nationwide disaster or trees to fall from the sky.

That’ll be the next thing, women are evil because they won’t help GNL remove the splinters that he keeps getting in awkward places.

Heh heh heh.
