I hope you understand that inappropriate sexual relations with grad students is in a different league than saying that dating may be a different and/or easier game to play in other areas of the country.
- alephnerd 3y agoSuch behavior might fly in Italy, but this side of the pond it is very inappropriate. Basically, a guy making a qualitative generalization of all women in a specific area is just scuzzball behavior. It's not as egregious as rape or inappropriate touching, but it's absolutely a Title IX violation, and just a bad thing for someone in an authority position to say.
- dotcoma 3y agoNo, unfortunately it would probably not fly in Italy either. The professor is just saying that some markets are tougher than other markets. The BA. LA, I imagine. NYC. I can surely add Milan to the list.
- alephnerd 3y ago> No, unfortunately it would probably not fly in Italy either Good. It better not. > some markets are tougher than other markets Fundamentally that is the issue. Assuming that relationships or sex are a numbers game imply that deep down, you assume that you deserve getting sex or a relationship. This removes the onus on the individual to change themselves.
- dotcoma 3y agoIf it’s a numbers game, it’s just more likely to happen in some areas vs others. This has little to do with one’s quest for self-improvement, however we define that.
- dotcoma 3y agoI disagree that “it better not”. You are, of course, free to disagree with me, but should imho not try to stop the debate by saying you are right and everybody else is wrong. Otherwise, you get Trump. Which is what is going to happen again in November. And no, while I am not a fan of Biden either, Trump once is more than enough to me.
