Keillor and MeToo

Lol what the **** is this
You're smart enough to understand, I think, if you are a man. If you're one of the other 3/4 of the opposite sex who are not so physically attractive, you are probably insulted but I'm only speaking my opinion. Sexiness and beauty is in the eye of the beholder; none of us are attracted to nearly every other person of the opposite sex ...
 
It’s really easy... just put yourself in the woman’s shoes... a powerful dude at work send you “love letter” emails and says things that indicate he’s aroused by you... even if you say no and that’s the end of it you’ve been put in an impossible situation.
 
We aren't treating this differently. In the past, we did, but now the pendulum has swing in the opposite direction. Many people who are accused by the MeToo movement are assumed to be guilty without recourse to defend themselves.
No it had not swing the other way. It's not even close. We are treating it different.

Should we stop convicting people of other crimes such as theft when all we have is an eye witness? Should we stop believing store owners who say someone stole from them and they identify that person because every once in a blue moon someone is falsely accused?

Men are still getting away with sexually assaulting women at an extremely high rate. It will never reach a point of swinging the other way. It will never reach a point of more men are being falsely accused than men getting away with sexually harassment or worse.

Do you have any women in you're life you are close to? Have you talked to them about being harassed? You should... And you should believe them.
 
Who are you to say ... you have something intelligent to say? Listen, I've said my piece and I'll let the rest of you to hash it out but don't attack me. This is my opinion and I think I have defended it to the best of my ability. If you want to disagree that's your prerogative and right in a democratic society, and my right to give my opinion. I am not a hater of women; I'm a hater of untruth and injustice.
If you want to spout horrible opinions in a public forum then you will be called out for it. That's the game.

If you have a point it was completely lost with your attitude, and complete lack of perspective on the issue.

If you really consider yourself a good person, and want things to improve for all people, and aren't just some dude who's feeling squeamish because the world is changing, and ****** things guys used to get away with isn't so common anymore. Then I implore you to broaden your horizons a bit, try to find some sympathy and perspective from the other side. You have never been a women in any of these situations. So how about just thinking about how it might feel for a bit.

Men don't need your help staying on top in this world. They are doing just fine.

Not really helping yourself much...

Hey bro you see the new chick at the front desk... she’s totally harassable. I would harass dat!
 
You also have a horrible opinion. And you have proven yourself to be a drama queen in the past, as well as harassing other members of the board in their real lives.
I never harassed anyone of this board. I've told my story in great detail and demonstrated that. And the other person has lied about our interaction. I'm not going to talk about this again. Why do you attack me for expressing my opinion. That is mean-spirited and unworthy of this board and its rules. Instead of attacking me, why don't you provide a better argument related to the topic.
 
Alright I’m out this thread... just everyone be a good person k.

1. You've proven time and time again that you have garbage takes

2. You argued like he was getting convicted of a crime. He wasn't, the employer moved on, no charges were pressed, and he still has his freedom. Get a better argument you moron.

You're either trolling, or a complete piece of ****.

I hope it's the former, but I think I know.

If what you were saying was true you would be looking into the truth not just forming opinions in spite of facts. You really should spend more time researching.

If you have Injustice you should be believing women who are telling what ****** men are doing to them.

If you want to not be lumped in and feel attacked as a men you would step up, believe women, and fight to stop ****** men from doing ****** things.

My attitude is only to seek the truth. And you have never been a man, apparently. All I know is that it works both ways and if a woman harasses a man and the man complains, people will laugh at him. The double standard does exist. While men have had the power, that is changing. I never forced myself on a woman, and I would lay odds that the majority of men have not. Yes, a lot of men have, especially when they get into positions of wealth and power, but that's not most guys.
