How to treat the coeducation system in college dormitory?
In order to take care of the actual needs of homosexuality and bisexuality, more than 50 colleges and universities in the United States allow boys and girls to live together, and many famous schools do so. This seemingly incredible move has caused widespread controversy around the world. While people question the feasibility of this move, college students who choose to live together with men and women say that as long as they live in harmony with each other, gender is not the key. In fact, this initiative has been brewing in American universities for a long time. As early as 2006, some college students organized and launched the "National Student Gender-Free Movement", hoping to promote mixed dormitories in colleges and universities. In Woodstock's era (1970s), male and female college students were allowed to live in the same dormitory building, which triggered the "campus intimacy revolution". In the next 20 years, universities allow boys and girls to live on the same floor, which makes the distance between college students very close. Now, some universities have crossed the final threshold and allowed boys and girls to live in the same room. Compared with the previous mixed living on the first floor, parents were finally shocked. They were worried that their "hot-blooded" children might "do something good". According to the data presented by some scholars who refute this move, the situation of students living in male and female dormitories is 2.5 times that of students living in single-sex dormitories, and the proportion of students living in mixed dormitories having more than three sexual partners in the past year is nearly three times that of students living in single-sex dormitories. In addition, students' expectations of coeducation will affect their behavior. Scholars say: "When they are in that environment, with that knowledge, they are more likely to have more drinking and sex." In response to questions from parents and society, such schools still pursue freedom first. Jander, one of the principals, once said easily, "In fact, as long as you live in it, it's no big deal." Jeffrey, a law student at Rutgers University in New Jersey, one of the founders of the All-American Students without Sex Organization, said: "College students are adults, and of course they have the right to choose who they want to live with." Denise Darrigrand, a director of Clark University in the United States, said: "This is definitely a trend in the future of American universities. This is a brand-new world, and we must keep pace with the times. " Judging from the current situation of dormitories in many schools around the world, it has become a trend for men and women to live together. Although many schools have not allowed men and women to share the same room, it is no news to live on the first floor. Universities in Hong Kong also have such policies. A student of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology once said, "Unlike the strict access control of male and female dormitories in mainland universities, the dormitory of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology is mixed with male and female students. If you are a girl, it is very likely that you are a boy opposite. " Allowing mixed living in colleges and universities has become a global sensation, involving many topics: homosexuality, gender oppression, young people's alcoholism and promiscuity. In fact, everyone just wants to explain this increasingly diversified society from one angle, express countless possibilities, and respect the freedom to choose these possibilities. The queer theory, which is well known in the feminist movement, has long recognized this freedom. They believe that the world that people are born with is inherently diverse. When it comes to gender division, they think that the gender dichotomy is still somewhat overbearing. Women can be masculine and men can be gentle and charming. How to divide the specific gender should be inconclusive. A few days ago, transgender people in Australia were designated as neutral by judges, which shows that the gender dichotomy in society is facing collapse. The new policy of American universities, whether it is the gender-free movement or the intimate revolution, is that these independent young people begin to make efforts to choose their own lives, and it is also their right to make their freedom public. Gender is not the only problem, it is just a symptom of social diversity. People's life began to have more possibilities, at the same time, people also have the freedom to choose any lifestyle, regardless of whether this lifestyle is marginalized or unacceptable. As we can imagine, these schools undoubtedly recognize the ability of college students to think independently as adults. They can choose who to live with. Of course, you have to bear the corresponding consequences yourself. We can't question the data provided by American scholars who oppose this move. However, the key to this matter is not the fact that men and women live together at all, but the students' self-discipline and incorrect cognition. From this point of view, even if boys and girls live together, there will still be alcoholism and promiscuity. Only the object and place may be outside the school dormitory. Moreover, homosexuality is becoming more and more common and open in today's society, and the possibility of homosexual promiscuity still exists. So in this era when freedom is becoming more and more important, relaxing restrictions is not a problem. The crux of the problem lies in relaxing all kinds of rules, disciplines, regulations and systems that were originally used to restrain students, but at the same time, students should not lose their code of conduct and indulge themselves without restraint. We can notice that these schools do not force students to live together, but put a choice in front of them. If students disagree, they can naturally choose not to choose or choose other lifestyles. Therefore, when people ask whether personality is important or gender is important, in fact, everyone has gone astray: this is not a question of personality and gender, but whether independent adults can choose freely. In a pluralistic society, the emergence of various possibilities and choices is an inevitable trend. How to contain it has become of little practical significance and value. What we need to do now is to pay more attention to ourselves, improve our value orientation, and control our increasingly free body and mind with a free mind. You can go the wrong way when you are young, but if you go too far, you will become a victim of this freedom.
