Article.

So this professor decided to let his class sex a demonstration of sex toys, and people got pissed.

Here are the facts:
-Students were warned multiple times to leave if they could be offended.
-They were told what they would be seeing multiple times.
-It was held off campus, so they had to go out of their way to attend.

I have no clue what the purpose of the demonstration was or what class would require it, but it seems to me that all students were given ample warning about what they were going to see. If they were offended, it's their own fault.

Their own fault of offended.

However, the prof should probably be fired for having a bullshit class like that. Waste of everyone's time.

Whatever. No more of a waste of time than other classes.

I'm sure every single person who went out of their way to be offended by this is either a tight-assed Christian fundamentalist or a very misguided feminist.

1) The professor was an idiot.
2) Watching people use sex toys is what the Internet is for.
3) I'd have loved to have been in that class.
