“Only Moses in this one. Jesus and Mo were with him in the dress rehearsal but

It’s quite simple, really.
If someone says they’ve been harassed, then they have been.
One cannot deny a woman’s experience nor belittle it, especially given the absolutely dreadful statistics with regard to sexual assault. There is lifetime risk of 1 in 6 for women to be sexually assaulted — wrap your head around that one for a second.
Try this little exercise. Look around your office, school, the grocery store. Just mentally mark every 6th woman you see today as a victim of sexual assault. Unless you’re a Cheeto-eating basement dweller, you’ll get ill before noon.
Whether or not a woman is justified in her belief of feeling harassed is not your call. It’s hers.
Awesome irony!
I’ve had to delete at least one comment that I considered denigrating to women, and since I’m not around much to monitor these, I’ll close the thread.

what’s that smell?
Burning hypocrite?
