Freshman year shouldn't be your year to "test" out partying. You should have already been getting your feet wet/doing that in high school so you know what you're getting yourself into when you get to college imo.
You can't just jump into college and start partying and going ham, all on your own, around a whole bunch of new people that you don't know and ****. that's what gets a lot of these people ****ed up in the first place. They don't know how to act/party etiquette, etc.
Thank god I wasn't a loser in hs
I was SO innocent in hs (like church 3x a week innocent ) I still remember the day of the first Nattie Light was handed to me my freshman year... Was a complete mess two years after that lol

No one is saying that.
There's a difference between being in high school living in your parents house with a curfew and drinking or smoking a little.
When you are on campus it's like your island?
college kids have a freedom THEY NEVER HAD in their parents house. That "test" of partying is different and more dangerious.
I didn't say people took their first drink or went to their first party.
I'm speaking from the actual experience of going to college and being on campus so it's a real experience that is a different level than the fisher price toys r us "edginess" that kids think they are doing in high school
P.S. It shouldn't be done until you're 21 or 18 depending on the action technically but that's not realistic.
Of course there is a difference. There is also a difference between being thrown into "life on your own" with 0 experience or knowledge about any of that stuff. And getting thrown into life of your own with knowledge, experience, etc of how things kind of work.
Yeah, living on your own and stuff and being independent is different. But not knowing your limits, party etiquette, how to handle certain situations, what to drink, do, and what not to, etc. is super beneficial when you're put into that type of situation.
Like me and one of my friends parents literally LET, and wanted, us get the adult bands (with all inclusive bar) during our last year of "family vacation" (when we were like 17) specifically because we were going to be on our own soon and they wanted us to get the experience, make sure we knew how to act and stuff. It's the same principal.
There will be no bad publicity for working with Dr. Luke.
It's odd that anyone would think otherwise.
The notion that any critic (male, especially) would bother going to lengths to lambaste an artist based on the personal affairs of those they work with is a bit ridiculous. One or two might make a wisecrack about the situation; likely in the context of how it may have affected his output, but that's about it. + the '~GP' doesn't know enough about who did work on, or was involved in, whatever they're singing along to on the radio to care.

Dr. Luke has been the de facto industry hitman for almost a decade and, I'm sure, has established quite a few noteworthy rapports during his time. It'd be silly now for any (judicious) person involved in that world to suddenly up and denounce him based on a case that, oddly enough, held near-nil weight in the industry until recent and, might I remind you, with little to NO tenable evidence presented. Not that anyone is denouncing Kesha's claims, but emotion won't overpower a deposition in a cutthroat industry, and definitely not in jurisprudence.

Ok, i'm not going to ask whether you attended college because it's none of my business but I did.
You bring up valid points but let's say you learn the limit via underage drinking and smoking.
that doesn't mean you've tried every single drink or drug or sexual experience or hung out in every single crowd.
I think it's just an experience that you have to go through but you can have those limits and cross them because you have a new sense of freedom and you convince yourself that you can handle more.
It's a slippery slope and testing your limits albeit illegally does count for something but it really doesn't always keep things at bay...if anything at the wrong time and place in life that time spent testing in high school and LBR middle school/jr high can end up being the gateway to opening the floodgates once you are now standing on the freedom/independence/can't tell me nothing foundation that you think is made of concrete but really made of a hollow box ready to fall out from under you at any given moment.
"He raped her because she provoked him with her short skirt" teas.
I...wasn't saying there is an excuse?
But it's a lot easier to peep, avoid, sniff out, stay away from situations like that if you know what you're getting yourself into as opposed to being completely oblivious
Am not expecting someone who has never been to a party in their life or drank any alcohol to know not take drinks that you don't pour yourself, to watch your cup at all times, etc.
That's all I'm saying
Kids shouldn't be thrown into super huge, away from home, party like environments without having any sort of experience. I feel like it would improve a lot of things (I wsn't even specifically talking about date rape) but just people bugging out in general.

Dear god. THANK YOU!
Someone rational and analytical like me.
All the EMOTIONAL appeals I've had to deal with today.
Her CRYING and it going viral is ultimately what prompted this reaction. Had she pulled a Rihanna (shades on and quiet) in court today. Nobody but her fans would be talking about it.
For a lot of people, especially celebs, it's difficult to see a woman publicly torn up to the point of tears like that. But it doesn't change the reality. She's stuck in the contract. Dr. Luke is suing her. People want hits. And Dr. Luke will still have a career (based on his ability to deliver hits, not his relation to Ke$ha).
Everything else will become secondary unless she pulls some crazy **** out of somewhere and gets A-list celebs/industry executives/top creators to co-sign. Or it catches fire in the media (not just sizzles a little like it is now).
Bey needs to go ahead and SWOOP in now with her alberm.
Adele is losing steam.
Taylor is resting.
Katy is gathering her team of producers.
Rihanna is no threat at all.
Gaga is no longer a pop star.
Britney is done.
Ke$ha....

No, I would never purchase a Katy Perry album.
