    I guess the point is to expose everyone so everyone is held accountable for their crimes. I wonder where all the black Hispanic and Asian women are. Guess the media doesn't think it'll make a good story

    This country has went out of the way to be different than Europe since the beginning. It makes more sense to use metric system but we don't. It makes more sense to use Brazilian formula vs Quadratic formula in math, everyone else uses Brazilian but we don't, and obviously we drive on a different side of the road and so forth. I think progressives want this country to be more aligned with Europe than its willing to be.

    I saw that yesterday..the difference with Rashida is she quit his movie rather than be subjected to his advances. Not unlike Gwyneth..which makes me wonder whether having family money to support you, allows you to say fuck it more easily. Not saying that's the reason, just that incredible dynamics play into why a woman might brush off or let slide a boss's lewd come-on, or not.

    Gee, uh, no.
    What will make women safe is men learning to keep their hands to themselves and their dicks in their pants.

    Why do you insist this is education the vast majority of know it's wrong which is why the vast majority of us don't do it. The outliers who do don't care about laws or rules like most criminals.
    This way you weed out any possibility of having to endure the plague of masculinity.

    If the vast majority knows it's wrong, why then do you keep insisting on complete segregation?

    Women can always deal with "the plague of masculinity" as you've coined it (smh), by exposing those (who as you also put it) "don't care about laws or rules."
    If the exposed don't include you, you shouldn't be upset about that, right?

    Your desire to segregate adults as a solution... is to effectively make excuses for bad behavior by way of fully eradicating those males' weakness (problem) - women.

    Hence my prior Bhurka pic, clothing designed to remove sexual temptation from Muslim men who can't control themselves. Is that your solution?
    Yes..it is.

    John Conyers, 88, repeatedly touched aide at White House jazz concert – according to suit by woman who feared lawmaker's 'brawler' wife who called her 'his whore'
    By Geoff Earle, Deputy U.s. Political Editor For Dailymail.com

    "..According to a claim filed by his former D.C. scheduler, Conyers rubbed her neck in her cubicle, and also according to claim, she was experiencing extreme discomfort that evening due to his repeated attempts to touch her and get her to go to his Washington, D.C., home after the program.

    According to a federal court filing by the former aide, the married Conyers repeatedly tried to touch, massage, and corner the plaintiff.

    Conyers made five attempts on a single day in 2016 to 'coerce' her to come to his home, according to her legal filing, which was later withdrawn.

    The House Ethics Committee on Tuesday began an inquiry into Conyers after a report that his office paid $27,000 to settle a case with another accuser, from his taxpayer-funded office allowance.

    The day in question, in April of last year, Conyers invited the woman to attend a White House event with him that evening...

    The aide says that on the day of the April 29 event, Conyers 'cornered' her in the office kitchen about coming to his house.

    While driving to the White House, the woman rode in the back of the car with Conyers, who 'continually made attempts to hold her hand and make inappropriate comments under his breath, again requesting that Plaintiff come home with him,' according to the suit.

    At the event, she was seated next to Conyers, who 'continued to touch her against her wishes the entire evening.'

    ....
    She also cited the congressman's wife as part of her claim that the office was a 'hostile work environment.'

    She cited as fact that 'Monica Conyers is a known brawler and that she felt threatened anytime Mrs. Conyers was scheduled to be in Washington, DC.'

    Monica Conyers pled guilty to bribery charges and served time in federal prison.

    She claims that Conyers' wife, Monica Ann Conyers, who filed for divorce in 2014, cited her own hiring as a cause of action. The woman also says Monica Conyers told other staff: 'What's good about him hiring his whore.'

    The woman says she shared her concerns with a former Conyers staffer who replied: 'You are his type ... we've always had the same type.'

    This country would replace the decimal number system if we found it practical enough. The Romans certainly tried and failed. You have hexadecimal which is useful for conversion when you're working with binary, but nothing can replace decimal. As simple as it is, you may as well call the decimal system divine. Invented by man yet still divine. The genius is in reducing something to the most simple form possible.

    Well the thing is this is painted as a "male problem" not a criminal problem. Suddenly ALL men are culpable ALL men contribute to the "patriarchy" ALL men are guilty regardless of personal action. Now "good morning beautiful" is street harassment, misreading signals is now sexual misconduct unless you explicit consent. Honestly as a black person it feels very similar to respectability politics "hey as long as you do the right thing you have nothing to worry about" "you're not one of the bad ones so don't worry about we treat them"
    Now being male is an original sin. So at the work place so you never have to even think about it wouldnt it be nice to have things nice separated. No misunderstandings you just go to work do your job go home. This isn't about men controlling themselves the vast majority do just fine not crossing the moving line most only want to support themselves and their families. Hell at this present time most would rather watch porn than actually chance rejection or spend money on a stranger. So the problem isn't education or self control its making everyone responsible for what a handful of assholes do.
    So again to avoid all that just split us up.

    Neat side step of "progressives" and Republicans being aligned a.k.a. the "Horseshoe Theory." Also it's a known fact that 12% of Berners flipped to Trump in the general. But you know, go ageist when you can't address facts.

    That 12% however misguided I get it, they were sick of the establishment, they were sick of people telling them how great things were while their communities crumbled. I don't agree but I get it, not to mention Trump and Bernie were the only ones who addressed middle America strife Hilary didn't. As soon as he was the nominee she was on cruise control, she acted like it was in the bag so take away Bernie it seemed like the only one who actually cared and addressed their concerns was Trump. How about that for some facts.

    So, Mel Gibson, a known Hollywood racist can be forgiven and still keep his career. But, a man who tells off color jokes or makes unwanted sexual advances to women must lose his career (And no, I'm not including rape in this).

    How are we on the same side again?
