“ … athletes or frat guys are more prone to gang rape not because they are athletes or frat guys, but because being frat guys or athletes confers on them an elite status that is easily translated into entitlement, and because the cement of their brotherhood is intense, and intensely sexualised, bonding. „

The always interesting Kimmel is also interviewed in this week’s “Feministing Five”.
