This post from Minding the Campus observes that at Occidental College, sexual misconduct can be considered as having occurred even if a woman says “yes.” This makes the ridiculous Antioch College dating rules even more ridiculous, because they are now irrelevant, but I didn’t think that feminists themselves would make them so. Let me further note that for feminists there is never any downside to making the definition of sexual harassment stricter than it already is. After all, according to them we still live in a patriarchy, so any male is automatically privileged. This is what I argued against in my book on gender politics (on the right), but of course they will never read it. There will be costs to innocent men, but it doesn’t bother them in the slightest.
Like I said several days ago, bring back men’s colleges.
I've read several of your posts and I think you have some insightful commentary regarding the hypocrisy of the Left.
The lack of Men College's is interesting in light of the fact that Women's College's, in fact all female spaces from the Girl Scouts to Curves to Women's Shelter's and the like are justified because they afford women a 'safe space' away from men.
But not only aren't men afforded such safe havens for protection, feminists actively crusade to drive such places off the face of the Earth. I've yet to get a rational answer that explains the double standard.

Yes, supposedly, we men don't need it because women aren't a threat to us.
