How to piss off femenists on my campus

<link violates forum rules> for a student published paper that prints mostly creative writing and editorials. He's a creative writing major and wrote about why he isn't in a relationship and about how he judges the women he sees on a 10 scale. He threw in offensive language and ended the article with a joke about rape.

I myself found the article kind of funny, as funny as normal shock humor usually is and I could tell that it was obviously a joke.

Feminists on my campus could not figure that out.

They decided to call the police and report him as a rapist and he was threatened with being charged with second degree sexual assault (not actually possible). They have also been calling for an end of funding for the paper and a school review (censorship) board to review articles. Today was marked with protests on the campus due to the next issue of the paper being published.

Being the free speech advocate that I am have been involved in a few debates with women who say that they shouldn't have to read articles like this and how they now fear for their safety because he'll rape them.

I explained to my female roommate who is up in arms about this that it is protected speech and no crime was committed so he cannot be charged with anything. He never assaulted any girl, he just made a joke about it at the end of the article so he's not a threat to her safety. Censoring him goes against the foundations of our country and once you censor one thing you censor all things. She claims he violated her rights by writing this and she will kick him in the balls if she sees him to protect herself. I explained that he didn't violate any of her "rights" and that kicking him would be violating his rights.

She's no longer speaking to me.

That time of the month.

That's hardly even a rape joke...

It made me laugh.

Stupid feminists.

I thought it was a pretty good article. A little over the top for the masses, but for those who know how to read it, very good. And the so called rape joke was not one tenth of what I expected. My conclusion, your feminists are overreacting. 

Lmfao.

That was a nice kicker to end with.

INCONCEIVABLE!

Really though, are they butthurt on principle, or because they are stupid?

Lovely day indeed.

Fine. I'll take a hint. Just pointing out the potential for some hypocrisy.

Doesn't matter.

46. If you don’t believe a woman when she says she was raped then you’re encouraging rape.
