 My name is Billy Curtis. I'm the Director of the Gender Equity Resource Center here at Cal. My name is Christine Ambrosio. I also go by CC and I work at the Gender Equity Resource Center. Social justice, particularly looking at sexism, is a passion for me. When I was in college, I hung out with a group of feminists, most of them lesbians, and they taught me quite a bit about sexual violence. I knew rape was a bad thing, but I thought of it as a stranger rape thing, the thing of someone jumping out of the bushes. But I had no idea about how prevalent acquaintance rape was, that folks were actually being sexually assaulted by people they knew. No one would say that they are proponents or for sexual violence or anything like that. Like, I've talked to students, they're against it. But I think what's difficult is that sometimes they may not recognize that they may be participating in a culture that supports that. And sometimes they may engage in behaviors that they may not realize is impacting someone in a way that they're not intending to. So I may be joking around. I may not realize that I've offended someone so much so that they've stopped going to class. We need to broaden the conversation in order to create space for students and others, quite frankly, to have more authentic interactions and safe interactions. We want to let LGBT folks know that if something happens, they can come and talk to us about it. And it's also true for men as well. Not just if they are to be seen as someone who's a perpetrator of violence, but someone who might actually be a survivor of violence himself. In my undergrad years, I had my own, what I call my lost years, where I felt like I didn't know what I was doing, I didn't know, I didn't trust my own decisions. And I think many times I've seen students kind of question themselves. And I think a lot of times there's a feeling of, you know, my voice not being valued and I want people to value their voice. And so I want to encourage that in everyone.
