As many of you know, there has been an article circulating the Angelo State University campus, in which a student at the school wrote and published on the rampage. This article has circulated many feelings regarding women’s bodies, sexual assault, and other things. I have seen the students band together in retaliation against this article, but something that we can do better as a student body, and as a program is to do it the right way get a petition, sign it, and take her to the school and show them what an embarrassment is causing.
Why snoop down to the level of somebody that cannot respect other women when we can ban together and make a real change at our school? If you believe that this article should not be circulating campus, and should be taken down for any reason sign this petition, if your loved one or somebody that you know has been through sexual assault, please sign this petition.
For someone to blatantly, go out of their way to write an article and judge a woman based on two people that she saw walking around campus wearing clothes is unacceptable. There should be no reason why one woman judges, another woman and tries to initiate that they’re asking to be sexually assaulted, and compared to a shovel in the van, in the article, she states that women are being objectified, but isn’t that exactly what she’s doing by comparing us to objects that have nothing concerning the human body or the form? How will one write a whole article on why it is inappropriate to objectify a woman, yet stand there in objectified woman, herself? Self-respect is not to be gained through other people in their opinion, but to be gained by one’s thoughts.
Self-respect does come through men, and what others seek as validation. Self-respect should come within it should not be on what other people think of us, especially on what a woman wears. A woman should be allowed to wear anything that she wants and not feel as if she is being looked at sexually. Sexual harassment is a non-consensual act, meaning that the person who was involved did not consent, and did not want to do what was being pushed upon them. Women have the right to wear What makes them feel good and make them self-respect in themselves not because a man validates them.
Now don’t get me wrong. She has an opinion and she can feel the way that she feels, but we, as a student body are also allowed to have our opinions and make them validated if we want something to happen then we need to stand up for ourselves by signing this petition it is a Star to ending some things so cruel.

As a victim of sexual assault I can say that it does not matter what you wear. This article talks about how women are pretty much asking for it by the way we dress. This article is disgusting
While I agree that Freedom of Speech is extremely important, using those rights may infringe on someone else’s freedom of expression. It’s important to note that actions have consequences. I’m not saying that there should a public humiliation, because there should NOT. But for Ram Page to publish this article is deeply concerning. Take this deeply insulting and blatantly sexist and misogynistic article off of the website and do not allow the writer, Emelia Hyde, to contribute to the page until a thorough investigation into how this was allowed is completed.
As a student and young woman, the writing in this article is ignorant and can/will do a lot of damage to students who view it, no matter what opinion you walk away from it with
Although the Freedom of Speech is a sacred right protected by the 1st Amendment, it doesn't give someone the right to promote language that incites violence. Claiming that a woman's outfit is an invitation for assault incites violence against women. We need to educate that clothes are not consent. The safety and dignity of women demand that we do not stand by quietly while others spread misinformed and dangerous speech.
I no longer attend ASU, but the author of the article has already shown regret and embarrassment in posting it. Where were these feelings when she was writing it? Mind you it was based on 2, only 2, women she saw on the campus.
This is outrageous women deserve to be HUMANS if men can wear NOTHING women can have a right to show a shoulder or more
She should be ashamed

As a victim on SA it didn't matter what you were why are we teaching girls to cover it and be careful of where you are and who you are with. Why not teach boys how to respect women and don't rape. The excuse of boys will be boys is horrible saying if you want the world to be a better and safer place don't only teach your girls how to act also teach your boys.
