That is a strong possibility.

My husband and I were talking during the #metoo weekend and I ended up connecting some dots on experiences that absolutely were harassment but I’d written off as just the way things are.
I agree. I’m sure hers is not the only butt he’s grabbed in a photo op. It really does say a lot.
I believe he did it and I also believe he doesn’t remember it. Our culture allows and excuses this kind of behavior. To be honest, I don’t think I can recall every time a stranger has grabbed my ass (but a celebrity has never done it so maybe I’d remember that). It’s not excusable, it’s uncomfortable at best. But it’s…
There are a lot of people who voted for him even though they thought he was awful because Clinton was somehow worse. Those people will vote for him again in 2020 over the commie Democrat despite telling pollsters that they disapprove of him.
It won’t be. There will be a new issue du jour best year.
We’re going to have 3 to 6 months of reckoning followed by lots of industry PR stand then a gradual decline back into the status quo. We’ve already related Oscars So White into the past even though nothing has actually changed.
Are they having sex at work? That’s inappropriate no matter what is going on after work. That’s where the line is - in office vs at home. You can have a romantic and/or sexual relationship with a co-worker as long as it’s not happening at the office.
As long as my coworkers aren’t having sex on my desk, I don’t really care. It’s not my business. They’re not on company time. Dating and relationships take place after hours, and if they’re not, then yes, it’s become inappropriate.
You’re not adding to the conversation here. You’re excusing behaviors by men that women are telling you is inappropriate. You’re dismissing what women are telling you is inappropriate because it doesn’t fit your personal definitions or observations. This is the problem. This is always the problem. Your observations…
I’m hoping my daughters’ generation is less willing to just let it go.
Words by themselves feel hollow. I think there needs to be action too (maybe somekind of victims advocacy). A week isn’t long enough to demonstrate change, though.
Yes, butI’m sure my biases will influence it. I try.
I agree. I don’t know what these guys could say. Like, I literally cannot think of anything they could say or do that would make things OK. There’s nothing. But I want them to try.
I absolutely believe there will be more stories and more victims.
Yes! His apology needs to include not only his original actions, but his denial. He needs to show some true self reflection and remorse. I’m not sure exactly how to do it, but his apology needs to show true regret and learning and not just look like a PR move. I want him to be an example of how its done.
I don’t want him to go away and be quiet. I want him to own up to it, genuinely apologize and become an advocate. I want him to redeem himself and learn from it. I don’t think he will, but I want him to.
Libertarians are the most self centered and least empathetic people I’ve ever seen. I cannot stand them.
If Trump is impeached (and pence doesn’t go down with him), I want it done within the next 6 months so pence only had potentially 6 years in office instead of 9 or 10.
“I will never forget the feeling I had last year when I got that sticker though, so sure that we had all just cast a historic vote for the first woman president.”
