Plus if you read the link you'll find that feminists at the time defended him, slut shamed monica, said if there is consent, regardless of position of power, than what Bill did was all okay. Hard to imagine a feminist today defending the same actions, or denying the countless other womens accusation.Doesn't seem like it, people are still slut shaming women, consent or not...and presidents can still be dirtballs and get inexplicably high approval ratings. Hell, we've got a guy running for office whose support has -increased- based on slut shaming children. People are still entirely willing to subvert every inch of their ideology to save their preferred political party's face..as well.
So what's changed you ask? Apparently a great deal.
No worries, if the past is any indicator, all those caught up will land softly. Give it a few years and they'll all be back in family movies, just as Clinton has his circuit..and just as Trump will have his even if his presidency ended tomorrow.
