"I think our education system, for what it's worth, can most certainly help young adults avoid incidents of sexual assault."

Missing the point, thomastoronto.  How many men, when questioned, when charged, when found guilty, say, "But it WASN'T sexual assault. It wasn't!"  

The only way "our education system" or any other system (such as personal choice) can help young adults avoid these incidents is opting for platonic relationships--despite what the young ladies may have   in mind--or, avoiding THAT awkwardness and frustration, it's abstinence.
