I have bipolar illness as well. I know what you mean, but please let’s stop using the term he/she is bipolar. They have bipolar illness. You wouldn’t call someone with cancer, “he’s cancer.” He/she has cancer. I know this seems captious, but with all the stigma placed on mental illness, it’s possible to help others

A black man insisting on his support for an unapologetic white supremacist does raise questions about mental faculty...  

Removing any and all context, this is a story about a guy who was hospitalized because he said he would vote for Trump. And that is hilarious.

Every time I was sexually harassed, I went through the same steps you described. It took me years to learn to shut off color behavior down immediately. I don’t care about being perceived as cool anymore and cannot take humor used in that manner anymore. I am now a proud Debbie Downer because trying to be more subtle

Thank you for standing up.

I want to pass on some information that, believe it or not, Gloria Allred told me when I spoke to her about my own workplace situation, as I think it’s something folks might not be aware of.

Save voice mails, emails, etc. Make a log of events, who was present, etc. There are also a few apps for your phone that you can use to record conversations that aren’t so obvious. You could also get one of those “nanny cams” in a picture frame, etc. and keep it at your cube, desk, etc. if the harassment takes place

I don’t know beyond this but I believe the smoking gun was that she had him on a tape recording. Which seems hard to get in real life for most of us.

It isn’t that people think they have it coming, it is that they are pissed these Fox News women don’t give a shit about this stuff until it is their own problem.

“Women should not have to face this, in the workplace, period.”

I’m probably going to get some flack for saying this - but it is the exact same thoughts that go through people who have suffered from bullying: “It’s my fault...” “I’m not strong enough.” “It will end on its own as soon as I’m out of (insert school/college/workplace)” “People will eventually grow up...” “If I say

If Anita Hill had been give this much press back in the day.....

How would someone collect evidence in sexual harassment cases? I’ve heard that so many times, but without specifics. All I can think of is keeping some sort of log of instances: when they occur, with whom, if anyone else is present, etc. There must be more to it, right? Could anyone fill me in on what evidence Carlson

A request to Jezebel writers/reporters: it would be most helpful for you to speak to several attorneys specializing in workplace harassment cases about what kinds of evidence to gather and generally how to proceed, then report back to the Jezebel community. Those involved in such situations already should still

I hate patriarchy. I hate patriarchy. That is all I’ve got.

Thank you for posting. I’m glad she spoke her truth and she is right: When you report sexual harassment, you will be punished twice. First by the men who deny it then by the woman who don’t believe and attack you. I survived as well. My daughter is strong willed and outspoken like her mama.

Women who are harassed in the workplace should simply “find another job”

Women should not have to face this, in the workplace, period.

I’ll give her this, she had the receipts. My god did she have the receipts. Fox & Co. were like “She’s lying!” and Gretchen was like...

The more things change, the more they stay the same. I watched my mother, one of the few women executives in the sixties, endure constant sexual harassment, less than equal pay for equal work and ultimately job termination because she had (and survived breast cancer). I’m looking at you Allied Chemical. Carlson, as
