I mean she did decide to read “Oh the Places You’ll Go” to a ward full of terminally ill children, which seems cruelly ironic at best. “You’re on your own. And you know what you know. And you are the one who’ll decide where to go!”

Her anti-bullying platform might also be described as cruelly ironic. It may also be…

I think they read “turned a blind eye” as “intentionally ignored” and got their hackles up. I got what you were saying and I think it is really important. Just teaching/helping/asking men to see what’s going on around them is a good first step to start making things better.

I cannot give you enough stars for this post. I can only give you 1, 1 star!

Consider all these stars yours though:

300's now according to Glenn Whipp. I think either Toback or Weinstein will end up with the most accusers. Both of them seemed to whip out their penis or talk about masturbation as a greeting so the numbers are going to be incredibly high. Bryan Singer might make a run at it too if any of his victims start talking.

TL;DR version - every man has at minimum been in a public setting in which some sort of sexual harassment or assault is occurring. They just aren’t looking for it so they don’t see it.

I think the “turned a blind eye” piece is what is critical here. I know a lot of really good guys who would never assault, harass, or…

Mine also started right around when I first got my period. I’d get them monthly (hormonal) and eventually found out that I cannot drink red wine and sometimes barometric shifts seemed to set them off. I lose a chunk of my vision and smell this weird chemical citrusy smell a couple of hours prior to my head feeling…

In the commercial it just says she outranks him now. There is no mention that she was his supervisor, in his unit, or even on the same base or ship with him when the relationship started. But ok, I’ll bite - if the woman in the video was at the time outranking him and had any implied power over his career and kicked…

He used his management team to threaten one of the women by telling her to stop talking about the incident or else. The “or else” part is a threat because the guy reps some of the biggest names in comedy.

None of these happened on a date. There’s a huge power differential here. He didn’t (that we know of) do this to a…

As a former Arizona resident, let me assure you, there is nothing useful at all about Flake. His pretty speech was grandstanding after he realized he couldn’t win his primary. (which sucks since Kelli Ward is horrifyingly bad) Anything from here out is to sell his book and rake in speaker fees.

Exactly! No one is asking coworkers and friends to go challenge pervy and inappropriate people to duels. It’s not hard for a coworker to deflect something with humor in an “I see you” way that lets the person know they crossed a line and someone else is alert to that. It’s a bonus if that person then talks to the…

I’m sorry you have to deal with this. This sounds trite, but it really is the worst because there never is a happily ever after ending with a person like this who has a history of being skeevy. You probably know this, but it is good to remember that HR has an obligation to the company, not the individual employee and…

I agree. Pin them down. Of course you’ll get the “sometimes God sends an imperfect instrument to bring about his will” line that people will eat up. It’s the whole basis of evangelical support for Trump. If they could hold their nose for Trump, who clearly has never read the Bible in his life and is everything they…

I am so sorry. If this is prying just tell me to go away or ignore the comment, but are you in the US? If so most all of these expenses should have been covered either by your insurance or by NACVCB since you reported immediately. Depending on which state you are in, you very well may still be able to get the bills…

Yeah, but one of the teen’s moms told her she was “the luckiest girl in the world” because 30-something creeper Moore was interested in her. That’s a little different than simply trusting that a well respected person wasn’t trying to molest your teenager.

They have the same agent (or manager? not clear on the roles), I believe. The same guy who allegedly told at least one of the victims she better shut up about Louis CK or she’d never work in this town again. The same guy that Amy Poehler needs to cut ties with today or any respect I have for her goes out the window. I…

A bunch of Republicans are defending him though. I think we’ve only found the line where fear of the average Alabaman’s ability to legibly write and correctly spell “Strange” outweighs how gross this guy is.

McConnell still equivocated with the “if it is true” bit. Moore is strongly denying. They are already sending…

This is amazing! I am completely squeeing over your charming story. Which Reading Rainbow episode was it? I’m systematically watching all of them with my kids now. They have held up beautifully and my kids enjoy them as much as I did when I was little.

That’s the libero. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volleyball#Libero

You are spot on with this comment, but we can go way broader than kids in the industry. Any 14 year old girl is highly aware of sexual harassment and assault. My daughter was catcalled by a group of adult men while walking with friends. She was 11. Her response was to scream “We’re 11, you pervs!” which made me proud.…

You sound like you know what is going on with the financial maneuvering here, so I have a question: what is the motivation for Tom Barrack to provide this financial bailout to the Weinstein Co.? I know Colony bought Miramax at some point, but they sold it, so I’m not seeing why they would invest in the Weinsteins…
