Members of an elite Australian college linked to Sydney University provoked outrage after it was revealed they had set up a "pro-rape" group on social networking site Facebook.
The page, set up by mostly past and present students at the all-male residential college St Paul's, called itself "Define Statutory" and described itself as "pro-rape and anti-consent."
Former sex discrimination commissioner, now New South Wales state parliamentarian, Pru Goward said she understood the site was designed to "draw an analogy between rape and competing with another football team".
"If that is a case, that they have very foolishly used the metaphor of rape to encourage people to be aggressive and competitive on the sporting field, then it shows an extreme insensitivity," she told The Sydney Morning Herald.
