A student website has sparked outrage with an article declaring rape was fine as long as the attacker said “surprise”. The insulting feature on UniLad said the fact that only 15 per cent of rapes are reported was “good odds”. The article ended with the words: “UniLad does not condone rape without saying ‘surprise’.” The site, run by Plymouth University web design student Jamie Street and editor-in-chief Alex Partridge, also sold merchandise bearing the slogan “keep calm – it won’t take long”, gave advice on “how to pull a fresher” and featured other material too offensive to publish.  READ MORE HERE

Is this child abuse?
