Irresponsible quote

"I get right in between their legs and pick them up, lay them on the floor, put them on top of you . . . and they love it," said Eric Domsky in a recent Collegian article (March 7). This quote, taken out of context, sounds like sexual assault.

Domsky, who is a male stripper, feels that the above act is just a part of his job. I don't know any woman -- especially one who has been sexually assaulted -- who would "love" a strange man forcing himself upon her.

Domsky's idea of what is "fun" is dangerous because it perpetuates the myth that women like force.

The Collegian was irresponsible in printing this quote. I feel insulted as an adult and a University student that this trite piece of "news" warranted a spot on the front page.
