Thank you all for the replies!
I'm really glad to see some discussion about this topic.
I know that the main focus of the #MeToo movement is the entertainment industry, but anyone who works in a number of other fields, even retail or food service (waiting tables, etc.) will tell you that such behavior is something they are expected to put up with, sometimes on a daily basis, if they want to keep their jobs--which is preposterous. My hope is that having the spotlight on such actions might "trickle" down into hopefully making positive changes in other areas as well.
I was also thinking about the repercussions for not just men, but women as well.
A long time ago, I read a dating profile from a guy who WAS very good-looking, and apparently, he knew that very well. One of the first things he wrote in his profile was, "If you're the type of girl that everyone says 'has a great personality', don't bother contacting me."
Alrighty then!!! I couldn't help but wonder if someone like this... Might try to claim that any woman who didn't meet his sky-high standards (like me, lol) was harassing him.
Desdichado, loved your comments about men and women acting appropriately towards each other in Christ--thank you so much for posting!
I really appreciate the conversation we have going here and am hope it will continue.
