For the last six years at Piedmont High School in Piedmont, California, there has been an unusual kind of fantasy league participated in by male students. It’s not a fantasy football league or fantasy basketball league, it’s something a bit more offensive than that. Dubbed the Fantasy Slut League, Piedmont High students received points for engaging in documented sexual activities with the fellow students they drafted. The Slut League was one of those things everyone but the administration knew about, but it was revealed to authorities at an October 3rd school assembly concerning date rape and sexual assault.
“It has been reported that students on some of our Varsity Teams have set up a ‘Fantasy Slut League’ in which our female students (unbeknownst to most of them) are drafted as part of the league. Male students earn points for documented engagement in sexual activities with female students,” writes Piedmont High principal Rich Kitchens. “Our focus really isn’t pinpointing the who or the details. Our focus is really about having this continued conversation with kids, getting them to feel comfortable, getting them to learn why this is disrespectful, inappropriate.”
Amazingly, the school is not going to discipline any of the students involved in the Fantasy Slut League, and they are not going to announce just how many students were involved. The Fantasy Slut League was used by varsity athletes as a way to bond with one another over the objectification of women, I guess.
