What does that mean. Should we go back to the 50's where women wore dresses all the time even to clean. Sorry, times have changed. And no, men do not keep it in their pants. That's the problem

OK, but aside from hating men, is this an answer to any real problem women might have?

We all agree that rape is unacceptable, but do women really want to see their innocent husbands, sons, brothers and fathers sent to prison because "we have to believe the women"?

No,Bent!
MeToo was created by women to fight back against male sexual abuse, name calling, and humiliation in the work place, the schools, and in public!

Politics had absolutely NOTHING to do with it! This is all about sexual domination, not politics!

Bent- ask yourself: Is Gretchen Carlson a Democrat? Is Megyn Kelly a liberal? Is Bill Cosby a conservative? Or Harvey Weinstein? Or Al Franken?

And it is because of attitudes like yours that women go decades without talking about what happened to them. You are laying out outrageous conditions that have to be met for a woman to talk, most sexual assault convictions don't have half of the evidence that you are requiring.

Oh yes...the "she asked for it by dressing like a prostitute" excuse. Have you no shame?

Yes, it is all about power.

Men have it by virtue of being male.

All men have a place in the male hierarchy.

Women want this power because they feel they don't have it.

They feel vulnerable in ways that men typically don't.

They often feel disrespected and condescended to.

Some of them even imagine a male patriarchy exists and that it seeks to subjugate women for the benefit of men.

At the end of the day, you can't demand special protection and special accommodations and expect men to take you seriously when you go on a power trip.
