TooManyChromosomes: A male student in the women's studies course I teach wrote an appropriate length, well-structured, and flawlessly grammatical essay arguing in favor of draconian abortion laws. MRW I notice that he blundered in his APA source citations, which technically counts as plagiarism...

I truly don't know what's worse - that a bunch of stupid bitches fell for what must be the most obvious troll in the world, or that there are people actually arguing that he should be hung in front of the academic integrity committee.

TrollX never disappoints

They are both equally the worst things in existence. Even worse than the Holocaust.

Hell, even worse than Star Wars.

Ill tell you whats worse. The guy taking the course. What man takes womens studies????

GOOD POINT

What man takes womens studies????

I could see some white knight nice guy trying to to get a girlfriend by showing how woke he was, but that guy would never write a paper not in favor of all abortions all the time.

The supreme troll

Isn't it required for some people?

Course requirements bro

a lot of liberal arts colleges have them as required classes to take for graduation

What man takes womens studies?

It's available as a choice to fulfill an elective requirement in a lot of universities, you don't need to be majoring in the subject to take it.

Except no one fell for it

I have the same thought when the woman from the domestic violence shelter comes knocking for donations. I guess this time I'll probably donate a few cans of beans instead of money, in honor of tgis excellent post 😎👌

Lol funny story. My parents told me that when they were looking to find some apartments to rent out and lease, this homeless chick asked them for money for food and my parents gave her a bottle of Welch Fruit Punch and a bag of Cheetos. She did not accept it lol

A man once bought a house by trading up from one small red paperclip. That dumbass women could’ve probably got a mansion with fruit punch and cheetos if she had the brains of a man.

Most of the comments don't seem to support punishing him.

Yes but it appalears some crazies still don't actually know that "technically plagiarism" is not the concern of the academic integrity board.

They are wrong. He needs to learn the realities of the world and expulsion is the answer

Wrong. The purpose of academic integrity rules is to enforce academic integrity. The student who plagiarized should be serving life in prison as an example to discourage people from plagiarizing in the future.

Life in prison? Do you want our American education system to be even more of a laughing stock? If you really want the integrity of our Universities to stay intact then you would be in favor of execution!

Prison reform is supposed to be about rehabilitation not just punishment. Force him to take hormones and undergo gender reassignment surgery so he'll develop an empathetic perspective towards the bodies of xher fellow wymyn.

What about slow dismemberment via a pair of hot tongs.

Yes, yes, much like his precious babies he's so desperate to save...

expulsion Execution

Because this is a super-forced attempt at trolling.

Male student in women's studies class
Writes decent essays
Is anti-abortion
Account made less than a day ago

There are TRP field reports that are more believable.

Shhhh!!!!

I don't know if you're simply ignorant of how academia works but incorrectly citing something is not grounds for referreal to academic integrity.

If I send a paper out for publication with an improperly formatted citation or even if someone feels information should be cited it comes back in review. They don't refer me to the author and have me sued for copyright infringement.

If you think errors in citation are grounds for the academic integrity board I really hope you're name is not accurate.

The best and brightest usually don’t go on to be university professors. It’s a job for the slightly-above-mediocre who are smart enough to teach but otherwise unimpressive. Bitter people.

Research active PIs are definitely some of the best and birghtest.

women's studies course I teach

definitely not the best and brightest from that alone

you dumb. you so so dumb.

Those who can't do, teach.

Teaching is secondary to research at research universities (most of them). The people who end up in tenured positions at research are some of the best and brightest, or at least the best at playing the game and working their way up the pyramid scheme of academia.

depends what field you are talking about. there is plenty of research in stem that isn't lucrative commercially but gets grant or industry funding. The drawback is that these kinds of professors, who are researchers first and teachers second, often are not very good at teaching

This is one of the stupidest comments I've ever read

The best and brightest usually don’t go on to be university professors.

Pls

It's like O. Henry and Alanis Morissette decided to have sex and 9 months later you made that comment.

You should have circled Cumtown

On the off chance that she is an actual professor and not a NEET or a troll, she would be taken to Poundtown by a faculty board if the student appeals.

That's not what I was trying to say. I realize now that it wasn't clear, and that's my fault. But you don't have to be an asshole.

I'm reporting you to /r/drama's hyperbolic integrity board.

To downvote a lolcow is murder.

Like abortion.

Yes we do

You're obviously a troll. This is a troll post, and you are a troll. TROLL ON THE BOARD! TROLL ON THE BOARD! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaAEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Not that they actual hold a job, but she probably wishes she could sue nursery kids for "misogynistic " finger paintings.

She teaches womans studies, go easy on her, its not like shes trained in anything like this.

She thinks that academic integrity boards work like the sexual assault kangaroo courts that colleges run.

In the follow up, I hope that after she returns the paper with marks against the citation, the male student crumbles up the paper and throws it at her yelling "GET OWNED BY GAMERGATE BITCH!"

It's

Get #Gamergate'd on!

You fucking retard

Educating the masses.

Funny that many comments are essentially saying to fail him for not learning the material which is essentially them saying that there is a liberal agenda.

/u/workingonlosingitnow If he hasn’t learned the material, I don’t see how you can pass him. The course you’re teaching isn’t philosophy, it’s women’s studies. His essay is about how women shouldn’t have rights over their bodies. Surely that contradicts a lot of the course material.

You can learn the course material and still argue different conclusions. The favored thesis in a field changes often; that is the essence of learning.

Nonsense. I've followed many an abortion debate on the Internet, and if there's one thing I've learned, it is that there is only one correct conclusion to reach on this subject, and if you don't reach it, you are stupid and wrong, as well as hating women.

Aborting all women. No more women means no more abortions as well as no more denied abortions. Win win.

No learning something in college doesn't mean understanding it. It means wholeheartedly believing it... What do you mean colleges indoctrinate people you're just a reactionary!

He is worse than a Jew, he is—may Allah forgive me for saying this—a SRDine.

Two posts by that user and you've linked them here, and most of the comments are saying how shitty it would be to turn him in... yeah no drama here unless it was manufactured.

This post is just OP showing off her creative writing exercise.

Don’t send him to academic integrity. That’s just petty if it was an honest mistake.

at this point, /r/TrollXChromosomes should be listed as a synonym for "Petty" in the dictionary.

/u/CrankyandGrumpy

Why are you doing your best to show that feminists are cold-hearted shrews who hate men?

Don't shame her for doing something so rare...being an honest feminist.

That is such bullshit. Plagiarism charges are fucking nonsense if you can slap somebody with them for improper citations.

Here you have a feminist bitchy-ass professor (or grader or whatever) openly admitting that she grades her students and charges them with plagiarism depending on how much they agree with her feminist view.

The conservatives who say that university has a 'liberal bias' are going to love this.

It's obvious bait. It hits all the marks: women's studies prof, hot button culture wars issue (abortion), the paper has no substantial flaws, the "prof" wants to fail the student because of their "wrong" opinion, the only mistake in the whole paper is a tiny citation error that the "prof" is willing to trump up into plagiarism. It's the wet dream of someone who thinks that universities have a liberal agenda, and obviously way too good to be true.

You missed the most obvious one

It's a fresh account

Is anything troll posts not a fantasy? As if any of them hold a job in education, even "women's studies" (how low a bar they set for themselves too that even their fantasies are this pathetic) and hold any power in any form, even grading papers of people they disagree with.

It's the fantasy of someone who doesn't like trollX or women's studies.

I came into the picture ten years after their divorce. So I had nothing to do with their break up. However, all these years their children had never accepted my daughter as their sister. Since I learned of this “regret” comment was made now I feel like I know why. They probably feel like my daughter and I have ruined his life and theirs. I don’t know, that’s my assumption. As for her, she has had this anger that I just couldn’t understand or points to that she still loves him. It never bothered me because since they were never in communication I never felt I should let it get to me. Plus, I can’t control how people feel. Hey, if she still loves him, what does that have to do with me? Now, something that I did not mention before is that he said to her that she wasn’t a regret to him but I was. So am hurt because he has given power to someone that doesn’t deserve or can use it against me. He also has told me that he doesn’t regret her in the past and he says that he only said that about me out of anger. Which really hurts me cause I have bent over backwards for us to grow as a family. Not that money should play a roll but in my eyes it does because I have sacrificed so much. He was a regular wage person (50-60k a year, if that) when we got together. I mentioned to him years ago that he should stop working and focus on his dream which is a construction company. So I funded him and his new company 100% until it took off. It’s not yet where it’s gonna be but he does pretty good jobs now (in a year, Maybe close to $500k gross revenue). So it really hurts to learn that he felt at any point that he regrets me. Now, the reason we broke up is because he started getting into the habit that when he would get into a stupid argument he would run up to me and pretend like he was going to hit me. So one day I got sick of it and called the cops and got him arrested for assault. On top of that, I mentioned to the cops that he had a gun in the house. He didn’t do any time but I had requested in the courts that the only way he can come back to his daughter’s life is if he does an anger management course for a year. So they granted my request. After a year, I saw an improvement and got back together with him. It’s been 4-5 years since that incident and he never again did it again and that I know of no weapons around. Now, yes we had our ruff patch but it truly bothers me that he gave her that power or that voice to go around saying what he has said to her. I’m also upset that he was even in communication with her during our break up because god knows what we’re the intentions between them. Even though it’s been 19+ years since they’ve been together somehow I now feel she’s a threat in our relationship. Plus, now I know why my daughter or assume why our daughter was not accepted by her siblings is because they think he is miserable with me. They’ve also has seen the financial change in his life and feel a bit envious about it. This is going to sound petty from me but I haven’t married him so that they (his adult children and ex) don’t benefit from my hard work. I’ve been very upset on how they have treated my daughter. In 8 years they have made zero attempts in a relationship with her. So if I marry him now my hard earned money because legally half there’s. Many would say prenup but let’s keep things simple and let’s not even get married. Am fine with that. I know, it’s petty in my part but it’s how I feel. So what I do not to feel guilty about not marrying him is that I lift him as an individual so that he don’t stay behind and has his own success and mine is not focused on. Once he gets at a higher level we then equal and I don’t feel my stuff is the only thing at risk of stuff shall hit the fan in the future. Now I feel like I sound like a dirt bag to you guys lol. Anyways, please reply and I will give as much detail to help me sort this out in my head before I proceed with my decision. Am at a cross road, leave him or stay? FYI: I may give birth today and yes I know I should focused just on the baby but I can’t help to think of this. It just recently happened.

Wait! Also, he should take full responsibility for his comment to her and make this right between us. Which he hasn’t and if he don’t I will have no other choice but to break up with him.

I may give birth today and yes I know I should focused just on the baby but I can’t help to think of this.

Congratulations, it's a copypasta!!!

holy shit the comments aren't retarded. have we entered the twilight zone?

It's no wonder why /u/CrankyandGrumpy is only qualified to teach a women's studies course

The deciding is the delicious part. Sip wine, hold his misogynist fate in your hands, imagine dire consequences.... aaaaaaaaaaah, feels so good.

TIL that being pro life is misogynistic

This is what happens when you permit women to teach.

Today we found someone too batshit for trollx. I am not surprised her job is teaching a women's studies course.
