I feel like I should cover my laptop in mayo, after slowly poaching it in the oven for an hour…

I was harassed at a work Christmas party by the on-air talent. Blatantly, brazenly and shockingly. It was only half an hour in. One minute a group of us were discussing politics and then out of the blue he stated that I had magnificent breasts and he wanted to suckle on my nipples. After a moment of shocked silence I

I’m wondering how many among us have been the victim of sexual harassment in the workplace? It has happened to me and I didn’t speak up about it which I regret.

OH YES I DID!

OH NO YOU DIDN’T

Do not mess w/that flavored bacon mess. Also, do not listen to Monique. She’s the only person who likes turkey bacon and still cannot tell me what part of the turkey it comes from & why it’s not white, like turkey.

I teach and have worked exclusively with women for 8 years so no harassment. A young, competent and very nice male teacher joined our ranks this year. He is coincidentally handsome enough to be a male model.

No job, you should chose not to work.

Oh, she knew alright. Note that the post I’m linking to is from 2015:

I usually don’t like saying “she should have known” b/c narcissistic abusers are very good at gaslighting their spouses and at showing the word a charming face. I’ve had dozens of friends who had no clue their husbands were cheating jerks until it was obvious to everyone else and someone finally felt complicit enough

Just in case this didn’t crop up here before now.

I do. I wish I didn’t but I do. I’m not even remotely close to being in the know when it comes to most things, but I heard my first Weinstein rumor when I was in high school in the 90's, so the idea this is some New! Shocking! Revelation! is disingenuous at best. I don’t even reeeally think it’ll destroy his

I go back and forth. Some moments I think we are in a sea-change of bringing the behavior into the disinfectant of sunlight. Then I remember that Clarence Thomas is on the Supreme Court and Donald Trump is President.

regarding your comment about these ideas propagating; I was on FB the other day and people were talking about conspiracy theories (specifically Vegas and Sandy Hook). one person’s defense of their tinfoil hatness was that “you just can’t trust the media, so anything really could have happened”. So even beyond

And, because Terry Crews is such a gift of humor and joy to this planet, I’m posting this happy gif:

ohmygod. Terry Crews is one of my favorite people in entertainment. I hope this will be a wake up call for idiots who say to/of the female victims: “Why would you put yourself in a situation where you could be victimized?” or “Well, she should have been more aware of her surroundings/dress/the vibe she was giving

Please Google old soap ads and you’ll see the ugly racial history in this industry and why Dove should have done better. It’s tiring to hear people speak on what they clearly don’t know.....Nobody should be turning into anybody, it was a stupid concept to begin with!

You don’t get it.

That’s why Meryl Streep’s ‘I had no idea’ statement gave me pause. I know that there is a massive, horrible power imbalance in the industry. But I’ve heard it, you’ve heard it, and Rose McGowan and Asia Argento (among others) have been saying it loudly for years.

Being as generous as I’m willing to be, I can see her not understanding the implications of how she said that. I remember when Trump gushed over April Ryan for asking a good, smart question at a press conference earlier in the year, I had to explain to some of my white friends and co-workers why I thought that was
