公众要求惩罚康奈尔大学案件中被指控的施暴者,但这偏离了重点——唯一的解决方案是女性在政治、法律和文化上的平等。有时,一个故事因其极度骇人听闻而能吸引公众的注意,包括那些平时不关注此类问题的人。2024年康奈尔大学被指控的群体强奸案便是如此。

Public outcry to punish the alleged perpetrators in the Cornell case misses the point – the only solution is political, legal and cultural equality of women Sometimes a story is so so appalling, it captures the public’s attention, including the attention of people who don’t focus on the issue otherwise. Such is the case with the alleged 2024 gang rape at Cornell University.

对于关注针对女性暴力的女权主义者,或任何曾关心校园强奸问题的人来说,简·多伊(Jane Doe)对被指控施暴者提起的民事诉讼中所提出的指控,其严重程度可能显得不寻常——但我们知道统计数据表明,20%至25%的女大学生会成为性侵犯的受害者(没有统计数据告诉我们有多少比例的男学生会成为强奸犯)。

For feminists who focus on violence against women or anyone who has ever cared about campus rape, the claims made in Jane Doe’s civil lawsuit against the alleged perpetrators may be unusual in its severity – but we know the statistics that show that somewhere between 20% and 25% of women college students will be the victim of a sexual assault (no statistics tell us what percentage of men students will be rapists).
