And these three high school rapists have certainly learned no differently.īut another part of the equation is the concept of toxic masculinity, or the idea that to be masculine requires violence against anything considered feminine - even younger boys. When high-school athletes are treated as demi-gods, as they often are in small rural towns where high-school sports are the only entertainment, they start to think they can do no wrong. This is a side of rape culture that rarely ever sees the light of day, but it echoes other high-profile rape cases that have been in the media recently. Their hometown, the three attackers, and the wrestling coach continue as though they haven't maliciously driven out a rape victim who needed their support and concern. Today, the boy and his family live 200 miles away in another Colorado town, but the event still haunts them. Kids who get into fistfights have stricter sentences than that. The attackers did finally have to face up to their crime, but their punishment was one day of in-school suspension and some community service. In response, the townspeople forced him to resign from his job as principal. Kids made t-shirts supporting his attackers, his locker was regularly vandalized, his Facebook page bore ugly insults, and he was constantly asked, "What's been stuck up your butt today?" He was not only raped by the three high schoolers, but he was victimized again every single day by the taunts of his peers and the indifference of the school officials.įinally, the boy's father reported the rape to the police. Meanwhile, the boy himself was going through hell. In fact, the wrestling coach (who is also the father of two of the attackers and president of the school board) dismissed the event, stating, "This happens 1,000 times a day around the U.S." For a month, they knew and did absolutely nothing. Immediately afterwards, the school board and district superintendent were informed about the rape by the boy's father, who is the principal of the K-12 school that all of the involved parties attended.
It's a disgusting, horrific act, but the town's response was equally horrible. Outside a high-school wrestling match in a tiny Colorado town, three upperclassmen high school wrestlers cornered a 13-year-old boy on an empty school bus, bound him with duct tape, and sodomized him with a pencil. I'm not saying there are people who engage in this behaviour at every naturist resort, but there are definitely some.It's a story we've heard countless times before, but with a twist: This time, the victim of sexual assault was a young boy. "That sort of behaviour is not condoned in modern society and generally considered harassment.

"I’m talking about cases where an older male might crack a joke and slap a female on the bottom to accentuate that," Matt said. Matt said sexual harassment and homophobia were problems at many Australian resorts. Mr Fleming said Australian naturist resorts were not-for-profit clubs owned and run by members, while the US had a lot of commercial nude or clothing-optional resorts. It would be great to see other clubs take an open-minded attitude because young people in the club is a fabulous thing." At my club we've just met in the middle and we're doing things together.
"There are old fuddy-duddies who don't want to change and there are young people that want everything their own way. "There is a generational clash," Mr Fleming said.
Young nudists say social nudity is about freedom and self-acceptance rather than sex. YNOA members in NSW had taken the experience to heart but Mr Fleming said Victorian YNOA members were happily involved in naturist clubs south of the border.
But he envied the nudist resorts in the United States that cater to young people with live music and bars.Īustralian Naturist Federation secretary Graham Fleming, who is a Helios Resort member, said he believed there had been a "one-off clash" at a club on the Central Coast where YNOA members had partied late and annoyed older members. Matt said there were a few Australian resorts that welcomed young people – including Townsville Naturist Community, Greg and Deb's Place and Balkaz Retreat in Queensland and Helios Resort just outside Melbourne. "The older people feel that we are being disruptive to their enjoyment, their peace and quiet, so as a result, they generally close the door to us." "Young people, we drink alcohol, we listen to music, we stay up later than 9pm," Matt said.
