Case: Skimpier and skimpier
As the summer has gotten hotter, Mary's classroom attire has gotten skimpier and skimpier. What started with halter tops and miniskirts has quickly escalated into bikini tops and thong-revealing short shorts. While this has made her extremely popular with the men in the class (who flirt and lavish attention on her), the women in the class are unimpressed with her wardrobe and make rude comments behind her back before she comes to class. During a discussion on sexual assault, a woman in the class makes the comment, "If the girl dresses like a prostitute, she gets what she deserves." Mary does a slow turn and says indignantly, "You better not be talking about me." When should I have intervened? How?, What should I say to Mary? What should I say to the student who made the comment, and to the rest of the class?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Interject in the conversation and address both students. To the woman who made the comment you can assure her that no woman deserves to be sexually assaulted, regardless of the attire they wear. To Mary, you can simply say that now is not the time for that conversation. Aside, you will need to talk to Mary about her attire as it is noticeably receiving negative attention. Some can get so caught up in the positive attention, as to not realize the negative attention. It would be best for this to be done in private. If Mary is not following the school dress code then, this is an opportunity to enforce it discipline the student as policy requires. The enforcement of the school policy may be done publicly as to set an precedent for anyone else who decide to not follow school rules. |
