    I shouldn't have gone there, but the victim blaming is ****ing me off. I know people that were afraid to report sexual harassment. They felt powerless. Afraid they wouldn't be believed, would be retaliated against, and lose their job. Sometimes paying your rent forces you to put up with an abusive situation that you don't think you have any power to change.

      Sexual harassment and sexual harassment are generally used to intimidate and scare people who aren't in a position of power. It often comes with threats to the reputation, career, or even the safety of the victim. Some of these people like Harvey Weinstein used a small army of people with advanced psychological and investigative training. There are reports of ex-CIA employees working on his smear squad.

      You're a 20-year-old actress trying to make a big break and the head of one of the largest studios in Hollywood rapes you. Then everyone around you says "It's just Harvey being Harvey." "Just let him do his thing." "Do you want to ruin your career?"

            Have you ever seen a woman after they've been harassed by someone who holds official power over them? Have you ever spoken with a woman who's been sexually attacked in some other way - be it as horrendous as rape or something you might deem unimportant, like a groping? The thought process of a victim is usually to shutdown during the event, and try to put it behind them after the fact. That's why you see so many advertising pushes, and other women speaking up at events to encourage women to report these horrific events. I've seen a former coworker receive an unwanted kiss from her former superior (it was the we-all-just-got-laid-off party). The horror and reaction on her face was like nothing I ever expected. Yes, I knew he was doing something unwelcome, but didn't realize it was so egregious until seeing her reaction to it. She was petrified, and when people tried to console her or offer her help, it was like she couldn't even process what was happening.

            I've known two women who've been raped. I won't even go through their nightmares, as they relayed them to me.

            Until you understand these things, regardless of who well intentioned you think you're trying to be, you're just not helping the situation.

              If you see something, say something.
              Why aren't the wives calling out their no-good husbands (if they know it's happening)?

              If you were out there groping people I'd hope Dr. Mrs. would kick you to the curb in a NY minute.

                That's why I applaud you for dealing with a harasser head-on.

                The wife of a harasser? She should not have to deal with him doing such things. If/when she finds out she needs to demand better or cut the no-gooder loose. Thinking she just needs to "stand by her man" is the 1975 thinking.

                  And then when you don't report it the next day, if you ever mention it in the future you're lying because you didn't report it the next day.

                        I would not be surprised if a lot of them "put up with it" because it is an abusive relationship....

                              Two months into my career at a big 4, a partner tried to remove my undergarments over my clothes at a work dinner. I was 22 and scared and if not for a strong female manager I was lucky to have, I’m not sure I would have reported it. I ended up having to move clients and went thru a lot of crap all because I was treated like that.

                                Honestly, all I can say is...it's Timothy A. He's already proven himself to be tone-deaf on many topics over the years, particularly sex ed and abortion. That's to be expected given his particular flavor of the Christ cult and is easily written off, but now we see the ignorance of religious conservative men in full force.

                                You're an embarrassment to our shared first name, Timmy. Clearly you should've been born in 'Bama.
