      @BananaKarenina @thebookslut @laurakipnis I mean, who would argue against building a better shield? I could use way more laughs about this.

      @lemonhound @BananaKarenina @thebookslut As with post 9-11 security state you mean--any sacrifice of liberty worth it for a putative shield?

      @laurakipnis @BananaKarenina @thebookslut Hm. No. Not at all. I meant shield as in empowered women who can deflect.

      @lemonhound @laurakipnis yes, but what does "empowered" even mean? Beyonce empowerment? Buffy empowerment?

      @thebookslut @laurakipnis Well, in the context of this discussion, it's empowered to deflect those advances right? You say how do you know.

      @lemonhound @laurakipnis ah, you were replying to a different tweet -- thought you were commenting on my essay, not Laura's.

      @thebookslut @laurakipnis I liked yours too, I'm responding to both...trying to find a position that feels honest and doable.

      @lemonhound @thebookslut It's a problem that "trauma" is now deployed re any bad experience. And dating is not the same as rape!

          @laurakipnis @thebookslut It's true. And we need to be clear about that. But also why do we need to expect advances from professors?

          @lemonhound @thebookslut Who even said that? If you think I did you're misreading me, but I can't re-argue a 5000 word piece via tweets.

          @laurakipnis @thebookslut Well, I'm thinking of the Jane Gallop bit and the question of how do we know advances are unwanted until we try.

          Who? The underlying complaints against the professor Kipnis wrote about were both sexual assault complaints. @TheRealJTonn @laurakipnis

          @humeisapotato @laurakipnis Sexual assault can happen between two people who date. That doesn't mean that the two are necessarily related.

          Obviously? But the person sliding from one to the other in this case is neither of the students. @TheRealJTonn @laurakipnis
