I disagree with those actions except in a relationship, however, I am a realist. Its going to occur in a nation of 300 million plus. That's not saying its ok. It is accepting reality.

A reality of men like Harvey Weinstein.

Accepting reality?

The reality is you should not be putting your hands on anyone.

No they are the rapists of the world. Cage them as long as possible, in the Anthony Weiner suite starting next month.

Who are the "rapists of the world," and why don't decent men speak up against the prevalence of rape?

Who said its ok?

Its reality, though, that some people will act inappropriately.

What's your solution to that? How do you control 300 plus million people?

Stop it from being prevalent.

I'd favor raising rape penalties substantially, including a max sentence of the death penalty for either.

Maybe not normal, but it happens in the real world to both women and men. I can't imagine how sheltered a life someone would have to have led to reach say, age 40, and never be touched inappropriately, or be on the receiving end of an aggressive pass. The percentage of people who can truthfully answer "no" to this poll, as it is defined in the OP, has to be in the single digits.

How do you stop it? You educate boys to not touch girls without their permission.

Grown adult men speak out against rape and sexual aggression.

For starters.

How about by being a decent person and raising the boys in our world to be decent men. How about by saying something to those men who do these things and standing up to them. How about we make it unacceptable to behave this way.
