HoneyDew... what I got from your previous comment, which prompted me to reply the way I did was when you implied that none of us would be doubting this woman if she "Looked more like us".. .or something to that effect. I took that to mean that you thought we were criticizing this woman only because she was black, and "we" are not.

That is why I suggested you not play the race card, because this whole episode has had NO racial undertones, or overtones to it.

Claiming racism, when there is so obviously none, is demeaning to the person claiming it....

If that is not what you meant by your comment, I apologize.... but I would like to know what you DID mean by it..
I took it as it was presented. As I have stated, I've said NOTHING in this thread to demean myself. You said that YOU didn't mean it racially ok but that's just you.

I know you already have a problem with me because I expect the same from any man, regardless of color.... so do you feel I have been "racially insensitive" about this?

(2) We don't know what these women dressed like (not that it matters). They may have been very modest in their dress, and not seeking attention at all, contrary what some others have posited.
If how they dressed did not matter............then why even discuss if they were dressed modestly or seeking attention?

Women know men. They dress provocatively, they get attention. We(men) are visual creatures. And women KNOW this all to well. And they know they have society and popular opinion that men are just obstacles in their way.

Men know women. If we go into a room and act like a rooster with tons of security(money) and are confident, even if we look like the elephant man, we are going to woo 80% the women in the crowd. And we are prolly going to go for the one that showed us the most skin.

And then we get sued, and brought to court when the gold digger figured out that we were not really the rooster we were playing and the gold digger didn't get quite what she wanted.

Well, fair is fair.

The first time someone says, "Hello, hot vanilla" to me, I'm suing.
riiiight.... keep us posted on when that happens.....

This reminds me of that old song "I Believe In Miracles" by, none other than..... Hot Chocolate....

There was a fairly attractive female instructor where I went to college, who had a sign posted on her door that said "Sexual harassment will not be reported.... but it WILL be graded"

I thought that was a pretty healthy, humorous approach to the topic.

All kidding aside, nobody should have to "put up" with true sexual harassment. My wife (cute petite blonde) used to get all kinds of suggestive comments and suggestions made to her. After we started dating and became an "item", I managed to get all of that silliness stopped. SHE could take care of most of it, but there were a couple of persistent twits that didn't take "buzz off" as an answer. I convinced them to buzz off. But... I also encouraged her to report it to the HR department, so they would be aware of the type of behavior those two were engaging in with women.

I hope that if a person was silly enough to make a slightly off-color remark/compliment to a woman, and she said "Please stop that, I don't appreciate it", that person would not do it again. If it happens that way, then it should be "no harm, no foul"...
If the person persists, even after being told to back off, then it's time to get HR involved. (or a big boyfriend/husband)

I haven't read that article yet, but does it seem strange to anyone else but me that the only celebs that are being targeted are conservative? Cosby was an outspoken critic of the "black culture", which made him unpopular with the Hollywood/liberal crowd, and O'Reilly at least leans conservative, and Hannity is pure conservative.

Seems odd, to me.

If you have seen any of the documentaries on the well documented corruption of the Clintons, you know that one of their main MOs was to go after the reputation of anyone who came against them. The tolerance of the democrats is renown! If slanderous harassment alone is not enough, a bullet may often do the job :p

Do any of us know any women who have not been sexually harassed?

Quote "I am sad that I’m not on television anymore. I was very surprised how it all turned out. I can’t say a lot, because there’s much stuff going on right now.But I can tell you that I’m very confident the truth will come out, and when it does, I don’t know if you’re going to be surprised – but I think you’re going to be shaken, as I am. There’s a lot of stuff involved here."

Have you ever noticed that most women only have problems with men in their workplaces saying "anything" when the men are not, themselves, "Hotties?"

Let a guy the woman has eyes for say things three times more sexually explicit, and they fall all over themselves giggling, blushing, and feeling "appreciated."
There Is a lot of truth In what Willie-T said.:(

At the end of the day it's all about the bucks. It's becoming easy to make the accusations but proving them is easier said than done. The political climate is such that making the accusation still pays big bucks. One more evidence of the loss of judgement in the nation.

We could make a serious dent in the false filing with a law requiring the plaintiff to pay the legal fees of the defendant when the plaintiff loses the suit.

John Kasich, a former Fox News host, responds to Bill O'Reilly's ouster

[FONT=&quot]While working at Fox, Kasich occasionally served as a fill-in for O'Reilly on his program. Kasich filmed his show, "Heartland," from Columbus, Ohio.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]"Well, look, I was there about seven years ago," he told Business Insider. "It was fine. If it wasn't fine, I wouldn't have stayed.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]"There are changes going on. We'll see how it all works out," he continued. "I'm not in the management of Fox News. I think they're finding their way."

[FONT=&quot]Bill O'Reilly said he is "sad" that he is no longer on television during his first podcast since he was fired from Fox News last week. But O'Reilly vowed that "the truth will come out" regarding the circumstances of his sudden departure amid a growing sexual-harassment scandal.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]"I was very surprised how it all turned out," O'Reilly said of his swift ouster from Fox News, the place his show "The O'Reilly Factor" called home for two decades. O'Reilly said of the yet-to-be-revealed "truth": "I don't know that you'll be surprised, but I think you're going to be shaken, as I am. It's a lot of stuff involved here."

Absolutely. Would also put an end to crazy settlements.
