Accusatory Urinal Splashguards Spread to New Campuses

An organization calling itself "Men Stopping Rape" is once again distributing the offensive urinal splashguards with the slogan "You hold the key to stopping rape in your hands" to men's restrooms in Pennsylvania. The trend started in Ohio. The article is, of course, supportive of the measure, but does quote a few brave dissenting souls: "It kind of pissed me off. I know rape is out there and it makes you think, but this is State College, it's not like it's Philly. The splashguards aren't directed to me and so I'm going to ignore them. By putting those in there, you must think all guys are out there abusing women." Update: The first Men's Activism News Network post on this urinal splashguard fad (from back in May) is available here.
