WTF.

20-year-old student was expelled from Brazil's Bandeirante University (Uniban) Sunday after hundreds of her classmates rioted over the length of her skirt.

 

According to Edison Bernardo DeSouza of Brazzil Magazine, on October 22, tourism student Geisy Arruda showed up to class at Uniban, near Sao Paolo, wearing a pink minidress and "heavy makeup," which apparently prompted her fellow students to go completely insane. Two hundred of them gathered outside her classroom to gawk at her, and when she left to go to the bathroom, men followed, physically fighting with her and trying to take cell phone pictures between her legs. A professor then tried to hide her in another classroom, but 700 students massed outside, shouting, "Let her out Professor, we want to rape her." As she finally left, escorted by police, some students took videos, including the one above, where you can hear chants of "puta" or "whore."

...

And psychologist Ana Fraiman, interviewed on a Brazilian television show, doubts whether moral outrage over Arruda's skimpy attire was even the real issue. She says,

What we saw here was a case of mass hysteria, a false moralism. This situation simply dragged the students into it because this fact was probably more interesting than the classes they were taking.

 

 

Rather, she appears to have been at the center of a deeply sexist mass hysteria, one that Uniban is only feeding by blaming her. The university should be trying to root out the prejudices and pent-up rage that caused hundreds of students to turn on their classmate — instead, they're sending the message that women who wear short skirts...

It's easier to blame one girl than it is to blame their entire culture. Which is pretty sad, but there you go.

Are they oversexed or undersexed, or both?

That shit is absurd.

I pictured Brazil to be this place with gorgeous women everywhere and so I would have thought that the male populace would be desensitized to something like that.

I was way off.

My high school spanish teacher once told us a story about how one of her students in the 80s went to visit his exchange student, who was Argentinian, but lived with his family in lower Brazil, and was expected to bone the servants just like the exchange student's dad, brothers, and relatives. Apparently when you are rich there, you are allowed to have sex with the servants as much as you'd like, and they have to do it, or you can fire them, or worse kill them.

 

I guess the student from my spanish teacher's class got in a fight with the family after he questioned why they would do that, and they kicked him out of their house.

No kidding. My teacher loved telling stories like that though-she was like 75, from Chile, and already had tenure, so she didn't care what anyone thought of her.
