Our girl Kacie at Dirty Rotten Feminist is taking a lot of beyond nasty bull**** from her fellow students at the University of Georgia.
The basics of the story—an alleged rape occurred at a UGA frat house. When this was reported in the school’s online version of its newspaper The Red and Black, people started posting about how this couldn’t possibly have happened because the guys at the frat were such “good guys.” Mmmm. Yeah.
Anyhoo, Kacie called commenters on the site on their victim-blaming, slut-shaming, and general assholery, and some of them have turned on her, even going so far as to blame her for her own rapes (klassy).
I’d say that Kacie could use some backup right about now. Who’s with me?
Kacie, thank you for speaking out. You are not alone and if you need the support, we’ve got your back. Ashley, is there anything specific we can do to support Kacie? Wouldn’t want to jump in there and make anything worse.
Hang in there Kacie, you are strong, and most importantly right – thinking of you.
