If I'm going to be attacked and mocked for this belief then so be it, I'd rather be someone who thinks for myself. Most of what I say on this forum is not understood or is attacked anyway because it goes against the grain. I'm used to it. At this point Gaga being a part of it is an anecdote, but considering her past politics (using religion to justify gay acceptance, supporting the American military) it's hardly surprising.

Absolutely! Rape is NOT glorified in US Campuses. It's is an abhorrent crime that disgusts almost everyone. People do NOT glorify it at all, just as it should be. The statistics regarding sexual assault cases on campus are so vague that you cannot say that US campuses glorify it.
Instead of trying to dismiss the claim, prove us wrong ATRL!
They depend on people believing the former to keep pushing their policies in North America, which they are getting incredibly efficient at. And there's a reason why it only happens at the university level, because it would never hold water in an actual court, which requires real evidence and statistics.
