Sexual Harassment And More

[jaycee]

I find this quote very interesting.
You claim the good old days or leaving your home unlocked and your keys in your car ignition.
I have to ask, if someone stole your car, or walked into your home and robbed it, would you blame yourself, or them?
By your reasoning, you are to blame.
It is not the deviants fault for stealing what is not theirs, it is your fault ENTIRELY, for enticing this behavior.

Food for thought.

That is where you are most definitely WRONG!
If that was the case, the police should be /would be charging the home owner and he would be the one going to jail.
That line of thinking is absolutely absurd!

To clarify, I agree.
I was saying that was Joepa's reasoning when he was blaming women for being assaulted due to the way they were dressed.
I was not saying that was my opinion.
The second last sentence should have ended with a question mark.
Sorry for my mistype.

I just find it amazing it takes victims so long to report it and after the first one comes out it's a deluge.

As a woman I don't find that hard to understand at all. Takes great courage to report sexual abuse and if someone leads the way that makes it so much easier. Especially hard when you are young as opposed to 50,60,70.

I know that you're absolutely right,Sharon,but,I find the timing of all this highly suspect given the over-the-top smear campaign against the Trump administration and now,Judge Moore by Democrats that just can't get their heads around the fact that they got (and are still getting) their a*ses handed to them.

It’s not harassment if they get their own handed to them.
If these people did wrong 30 years ago why did they stop.

I can see a young aspiring actress/entertainer/musician being reluctant to report sexual abuse or harassment. If she reports an incident any chance she has of her career taking off will certainly be on the blocks.
Was it Dionne Warwick who said, regarding Ray Charles, "you don't play with Ray unless you lay with Ray" and her career was fairly well established.

I thought of that too. If anything turns out to be false/made up for a purpose, that woman/women will have greatly hurt women generally. Hard enough for the abused to get believed without fake reports being publicized.

Yes, often unfortunately, " Lies travel around the world , while the truth is getting its pants on."

A whole bunch of woman and men are coming out against democrats too, look at who was first on the list, a card carrying democrat praised until now by democrats.

One woman came out and said something and now a whole pile are coming out as I am sure they feel like they will not be told they are just lying anymore.

Look at Moore, these things happened 20+ years ago, I am wondering what "good old days" Joe refers, it seems to me like the good old days involved district attorneys sexually harassing teenage girls.

Come on Fox - you always pick some isolated cases and then apply that to the whole topic being debated - did sexual harassment happen in the old days - sure but not to the extent that it is happening today - pornography was outlawed then - movies didn't contain all of the sex you see now - women dressed modestly - these issues are the reason things are the way they are today - in those days men in general respected women and showed it by removing their hats when a women entered an elevator - gave them a seat in a crowded bus and opened the door for them - yesterday I happened to tune into a UFC channel - there were two women fighting and beating each other up - I thought to myself - boy you women have sure come a long way - stupid to say the least -
