"if they feel like it," Belt said.
The group marched across
campus, down Bulldog Lane by
fraternity row and around the
stadium, blowing whistles,
' screaming and chanting "women
unite, take back the night.'
Participants thought the march L
was important
"It's important that people
walk around without fearing for
their safety/ said Vendetta Yen-
ter, a junior English major.
"It might make women
stronger about doing other
things*
Dallas Blanchard, a photojour¬
nalism ma jo r, showed up to "of¬
fer more support" and say that
"not all men are pigs."
Cyndi McCollister, a recent
CSUF graduate and former mem¬
ber of Women's Alliance, came to
the march "because I think ifs
important to support Women's
Herstory Month and especially
this," she said.
V Michael O'Reilly from the
University Police Department and
an investigator in the area of sex¬
ual assault was also at the march.
"I support Take Back the
Night/" he said. "I support this
and I think that women should be
free to
walk the
streets at
night."

"And I'm Miss America," Belt
responded.
"I don't know why they don't
report these things. They want to
bury it like it's not happening.

this campus," she said.
O'Reilly said he was "sure there
are a lot more date rapes on
campus.. Jar more .that are not
reported."
He said that a lot of times
women don't report rapes because
they were comm itted by people
they
know.

said
O'Reilly.
"We can
only re¬
port what is reported to us."
Before the march Women's
Alliance presented a film about
pornography and exploitation,
entitled "Not a Love Story."
According to the film, pornog¬
raphy is illusions for sale, influ¬
encing people's actions and re¬
flecting an ti-woman feelings.
"Pornography is filled with
images of silencing women," said
Susan Griffen, author of Silence
and Pornography.
Ed Donnerstein, research psy¬
chologist, called pornography a
"time bomb" that could explode
atanytime. L
"When a man is raped (in por¬
nographic ftlms) there is pain and
suffering," he said. "(When a
woman is raped) there is humili¬
ation but she is turned on to what
is happening (in these films)."
He also said that with aggres¬
sive pornography, there is a dan¬
ger of desensitizaHon or satiation,
meaning that pretty soon men will
get so used to seeing images of
violent sex that they will not react
negatively to it
"All of us remain potential
victims," he said.
Playboy and Penthouse circu¬
lation is higher than lime and
Newsweek combined, porno¬
graphic rentals outsell regular
•movies three to one and there are
four tunes as many adult book¬
stores in the United States as there
are McDonalds, according to the.
film.
A feminist author in the film
created a newturnonan old quote
by James Baldwin, in which he
said "to be Made and conscious is
to be in a constant state of rage."
To be female and conscious is
to be in a constant state of rage,"
she said.
