Static Electricity

@Bat Sadly, we can't even have that as a silver lining. It's a wretched, hostile environment where some women are afraid to walk outside their own dorms for fear of getting raped.

That's terrible. The thing that I hate is how, when terrible things like this happen, people start acting like "Oh my gosh, we need to research how to fix this, it's some sort of scientific discovery that has somehow eluded us all these centuries". Not saying things don't need to get better, but I'm thinking, "PEOPLE, IT'S QUITE SIMPLE!!! There are TONS of sources and moral guides at our disposal that outline it quite clearly...

...how not to be a completely terrible person and a true gentleman/woman to others. Pick your religion/philosophy/whatever, but these things have been covered. We're just terrible at teaching them to children these days!
