The new academic year often brings scandals related to sexist and homophobic practices in universities in several countries. Join our debate if you care!
Sexism and homophobia in university
Many students experience sexism, verbal intimidation and harrassment on college and university campuses. Student societies and fraternities are often accused of normalising misogyny and the culture of sexual abuse. For instance a survey has revealed that one in four UK students have experienced unwelcome sexual advances. In the US, there is growing concern about the existence of entrenched sexist and homophobic practices in many colleges. Some programs have been launched to tackle rape and sexual violence on campuses. Universities apply disciplinary actions to punish the most serious sexist and homophobic practices, but are they doing enough to deal with “everyday sexism” on campus? Do you think universities are too permissive or are they overreacting to the problem? Share your views on the role of university administrations and the severity of the problem of sexism and homophobia on campuses.

I was approached by “Danny” on a dating app. After some conversation, we exchanged numbers, and eventually, Danny convinced me to move our conversations over to WhatsApp. At some point, Danny introduced the idea of investing in bitcoin and assured me we could make money together. Under Danny’s guidance, I moved my savings into crypto and transferred funds over to the trading platform, www.cryptowallettc.com. Over time, Danny convinced me to deposit additional funds, even borrowing against my retirement account. But when I attempted to withdraw funds from the platform, the platform had frozen their account and requested me to pay $141,000 in tax within 5 days. In total, I lost $190,000 so I read reviews about RECOVERYCOINGROUP at GMAIL dot COM and decided to give it a try, 72hours after I contacted RCG my money was recovered and the identity of Danny was disclosed to me which I have summited to the FBI. I vow to make him suffer for the emotional trauma he put me into. If you're a victim of crypto scam then contact this group for your recovery ASAP!
