They don’t. But the thing is, to be illegal, sexual harassment has to be proven to be a pattern AND “severe.” So calling a woman a bitch one time isn’t harassment. Which means that in order to prove her case, a plaintiff has to provide evidence that these individual incidents happened, which means demonstrating that…

I used Lady the same way I would use Bro to a man decided to lecture me that way.

Look lady, you don’t need to preach about the value of women’s colleges to me okay, nor do you need to lecture me about the value of women-dominated spaces.

You know what my clue was that you actually DONT support trans people? That you talked about being “allowed” to say she. I am a recent grad of a women’s college. We use she for those who use feminine pronouns. We use other pronouns for those who don’t.

Admitting limitations to research is part of rigorous and transparent methodology, dumbass.

It’s really, really not the scientific method. Because a) the scientific method is the process by which you carry out research, not the actual data collection method and b) do you realize that basically all studies of violence deal with self-reported (i.e. qualitative) data? You have NO IDEA the realm of data that you…

Wait. What?

Hey maybe don’t tell women how to use a women’s site?

You wanna talk about JEZEBEL CONTENT to argue that they should have taken Rich more seriously? Because if Hendricks, or her publicist, knew anything about Jezebel their best response would have been “clean your fucking house and then we’ll talk.”

This is potentially my favorite comment ever.

I don’t know you, I don’t know your kid, and I don’t know your relationship. But....

Really?No one responded to me except meeting people unless I missed something....

Yeah, here’s my problem. I’m sorry about the trolls, but maybe don’t jump into every fucking comment thread, AND create your own thread, to let everyone know about your trolls and how bravely you’re soldiering on in the comments of an article about Larry Nassar? Like maybe take a step back and think “my voice is not…

That’s not what bullying is omfg.

I was so proud of that. He seems like a good egg through and through.

IMO, yes, he is, but it’s OP’s thread. Short has a connection with him, and that’s great, but it’s.... ironic that the idea of migrating from an online space overrun by male commenters to one essentially owned by one of those male commenters is being floated in this here thread.

Lol that’s how I got here too.

When you go to other states (which, I assume you’ve left NJ), do the people there smell like gas all the time? No.... Do you think we all wash our hands immediately after pumping our gas? I mean, I would if I got gas all over my hands but that has literally never happened to me.

Yeah I know, but also, if there were a group of lawyers in the world stupid enough to do it, it would be this one.

IIRC, to prove libel/slander you have to prove that the statements were knowingly false (or at the very least, false) correct? Operating on that, if Trump’s lawyers sue Wolff and aren’t successful, they basically validate the claims in the book. Ohhh man I hope they do it.
