Sajid Javid MP, Business Secretary, Is A Blithering Idiot

By Mike Buchanan: Our thanks to Jeff for pointing us to a woeful piece on ‘laddish campus culture’ in the Telegraph. An excerpt: 
Universities have been told to set up a task force to examine the growth of sexist laddish culture on British campuses. 

Sajid Javid, the Business Secretary, has written to university vice-chancellors, instructing them to investigate sexual and verbal assaults on women.

Earlier this year, in a study commissioned by the Telegraph, one in three women said they had suffered a sexual assault or endured unwanted advances on British campuses.

A cynical conflation of ‘suffered a sexual assault’ and ‘endured unwanted advances’ there, of the sort feminists have employed for decades. Shame on the Telegraph for adopting the same approach. People wanting to understand more about fraudulent feminist research should read Swayne O’Pie’s Why Britain Hates Men: Exposing Feminism.
I was at university over 1976-9, at one of the three most elite universities in the UK – Oxford, Cambridge, and Reading. I’d have thought far more a third of female students would have ‘endured unwanted advances’ at that time. Hopefully they weren’t emotionally scarred for life in the process.
How might Sajid Javid suggest the ‘problem’ of unwanted advances be solved? And more to the point, what the hell is he doing, as the Business Secretary, writing to university vice-chancellors on the matter, beyond the pathetic pretext of having three daughters?
Sadly, his intervention is not unexpected. Despite being the first Conservative Business Secretary in many years, he hasn’t stopping the government’s bullying of major companies into appointing more women into their senior levels, regardless of the consequences.
As we know from the experiences of students in the US and elsewhere, only the police should be investigating sexual assaults on women – and men, for that matter. The alternative is to deny them due process, the feminist ambition all along. From the article:

California has become the first state to introduce a “yes means yes” law, in which students must get explicit consent from their partner before embarking on sex.
Such consent is not deemed to have been given if the other person is drunk.

For ‘person’, read ‘woman’. Universities will have no interest in sober women having sex with drunk men. If a drunk man has sex with a drunk woman, have they raped each other? The idea is ridiculous. In the UK at least, only the woman in that scenario would legally be judged to have been raped. Under the terms of the Sexual Offences Act 2003, only men can rape.
Which brings me naturally to the issue of the enormous gender differences in moral agency, and one of my favourite short videos by Alison Tieman, a Canadian Honey Badger I much admire, Men’s Rights versus Feminism explained with magnets.
