Wow the right engaging in deflection . I guess the teachings of Saint Trump  Of Twitter have been learned well.

The favourite tactic is to assume that it is lying news and refuse to accept it, "that is a left leaning news source so I will ignore it even though the proof is overwhelming" then you put up a source that co oberates and suddenly silence.

Left, right, or other...Men suck! I have been telling my two daughters that for decades. One is married and happy. The other is planning on marriage to a man. I warned them! Women need to be in charge. Men need to lift the heavy shit and rearrange furniture.

Um no, women are certainly capable of being in charge but not all mean are fit to do that heavy lifting. I'm no body builder, nor weight lifter, never was. 

If it is wrong for men to assume women should stay at home, it is also wrong to assume every male has to be brawny.

. . . not that there would be anything wrong with that . . .

I am beginning to think that the majority of women have faced sexual assault or harassment. Unfortunate but probable.

I don't know how many men have faced it, but most people don't take them seriously, which is also unfortunate.

I agree on both counts.

I also think that most men who are sexually harassed . . . are sexually harassed by other men. Nevertheless, I still think it's not taken seriously.

I also think that women are more likely to sexually harass other women than to sexually harass men.

I do think that there certainly are women that sexually harass men, I just think it's rare.

And men sexually harassing women is so common that it seems ubiquitous (I have many times in my life see a man slap a woman on the ass, for instance, and not only does he think it's okay to do that without asking her, but she often thinks it's normal despite it making her feel uncomfortable). It's disgusting really. And many men don't even seem to realize that what they're doing is NOT okay, and is NOT just a bit of fun, and the woman does NOT just need to "lighten up". Of course, there are many men that know they're doing wrong but they don't care, which is even more disgusting, but still, I am extremely shocked by the amount of men who don't even seem to realize that what they are doing is harassment. And it saddens me even further that because of the way society is, and how the abnormal is considered normal, many of the victims of harassment don't even themselves always know that they are victims.

I do notice no one is defending any of these scumbags...
Unless they are a GOPer, suddenly a good portion (not all!! ~hugs Mr. Brewer) of their base just wants to point fingers at the other side, while not even acknowledging those on their own.  As if this behavior were a partisan issue.

SHAME ON ANYONE WHO DOES THIS!  
(Cough cough, A-theist, Neo and Alpha)

Obviously you didn't read the thread about Bill Clinton. Plenty of defending going on there.

To humans, it's easy to do harass if nobody is watching. The word for it is "tempting".
So a scumbag that spent most of their life not resisting the temptation to harass, will probably do it, from light touching to full rape.

If power like high political ranks exist; expect corruption when nobody is watching.

sexual harassment is totally normal for animals

[chorlton]

I get sexually harassed almost daily unless I stay home.

I'm no model but I look different & get cheeky remarks (I cant understand some but intent is clear) yet the same young women (close to 1/2 my age usually) live at come in a very conservative family/culture & wouldn't dream of doing the same to a local guy.

just some food for thought from the east
