I'm sure we all have interacted in someway with some sexual assault victim whether it is a friend, relative, co-worker or whatnot but we likely don't know even if we know them well. It is a very hard thing to admit to honestly.

I am quite supportive of #metoo however I do not agree most males have been predators.

Are you saying that there is a woman out there that has never had an unwanted kiss, an unwanted boob or butt grab? Well, maybe Queen Elizabeth and Mother Teresa never had to suffer those things, and I doubt either of them had been raped, so, there's two that don't have to live with it.

Lmao Obama and Trump has lied multiple times and every other President before them, yet they weren't deemed unfit to serve in one of the highest positions in our nation, arguably the world. I'm not even going to start on Senators and Congressmen/women (on both sides) that are notorious for lying. And these are some of the very people who confirms Supreme Court judges.

I dont know what fantasy land you live in to believe politicians dont lie, Lol

I think the thing is we probably did things we shouldn't have and don't realize we did and this is while sober. I can think of two times I could align with #MeToo as a male victim to a female. That said as a male victim to a female, it is far harder to prove as if they are not anally violated, there isn't much to go by and the issue of an "erection means consent."

To be fair, if they don't fight or vocalize "stop" how do you know it was unwelcomed? I'm pro #MeToo honestly but there are limits for me in say how many asking outs is sexual harassment and rape after the fact (like I said previously no signs of it being a no.)

So we learned today that "devils triangle" was a drinking game after all, "boof" is another word for "fart", fffffff means nothing, Kav didn't lie (no perjury),and pretty much everything Avenatti brought to the table was as ridiculous as it sounded to a reasonable human being.

He's probably going to get confirmed.

If a women doesn't want it then "no" should always be said. If a woman fears for her life then it's up to her own judgment whether to say no or not.

She lied. Multiple times. Reasonable people know why, know her motives, know that DiFi used her, and know that CBF was fully onboard with being used.
