Members of the group Young Americans for Liberty, which was originally formed to support former Rep. Ron Paul’s (R-TX) 2008 presidential campaign, expressed outrage at the use of student funds for the event.

“The fact that a public university is going to spend mandatory student fees on such an event is just repulsive,” Young Americans for Liberty North Carolina co-chair Emma Benson told Campus Reform. “There is nothing that involves reading 50 Shades of Grey or using a butt plug that promotes safe sex.”
