People outside of college can and absolutely should have access to safe spaces, yes. Why wouldn&#x27;t&#x2F;shouldn&#x27;t they?<p>As for your second question, it&#x27;s so obviously disconnected from what has been said so far that it&#x27;s hardly worth even answering. A victim of homophobic intimidation who wants a space free of homophobic intimidation is not &quot;reducing their ability to deal with the world they live in.&quot; You&#x27;re stringing right-wing jargon terms together in ways that obviously don&#x27;t make sense. A person doesn&#x27;t have any less of a &quot;curious mind&quot; simply because they want to spend time in a place free of intimidation, violence, or hostility.
