#me too is not the #i uncomfortable movement

 
This latest round falls into the latter and uncomfortableness is not indicative of sexual harassment or assault. Although sexual harassment and sexual assault can make one at the least feel uncomfortable.

The me too movement is being used in a perverse way and it must not be tolerated.

Not only for the men whose lives can be ruined for making a women feel uncomfortable not in a sexual way, but also for victims who have most certainly been sexually harassed and assaulted.

Women and men both with deal physical personal boundaries. Hell I had one the other day when the person was too close and had bad breath. I was uncomfortable. Should I report to HR?

Second, a display of affection meant to show caring and not an attempt to rape/ assault/ harass is NOT and cannot be a conflated with #me too.

It is harmful to both men and women.

A good thing gone too far. And if it continues I will not continue to be a proud member.

Only a sample, because I'm going to hurl:

16. Totally agree

Why? Biden can win. He can win the flyover states. He has always been close to blue collar workers and can win them back since they know trump screwed him. He can win the electoral college. I would love to know who is behind this. Winning is all that matters.

Wanted to get that one in.

106. Childish

It reminds me of when my kids were young and one would yell, "Make him/her stop looking at me!" about the other one.

3. i agree...even my hubby who is the gentlest guy in the world is scared that he may...

..have hugged someone 'too long, too hard'..etc and now hes always feeling guilty about being perceived as insensitive when that was never the intended case. He hugs because hes glad to see someone, to offer support or sympathy. We need to remember that probably .00000000000001% of hugs or touches are questionable ( ok i just made up that figure). I wish we could just accept a hug as just that..a hug..after all culturally, just a few years ago, it was acceptable (rather, until a few MONTHS ago)

he is planning to run for a local office and now hes scared that someone from years ago is gonna complain about something. Im afraid #metoo has become weaponized.
:lmao:

And they never saw it coming.

HE'S A HAIR SNIFFING STALKER CREEP, VIDEO'D DOING THAT TO YOUNG CHILDREN YOU ****ING DU ****S.  ALSO COPPING SIDE BOOB FEELS. Stop defending this to each other, you look just disgusting.

The Dem's don't get that they called down the thunder and lightning and now the must reap the whirlwind. They attempted to use this against conservatives and like all acts of evil, things tend to turn against the evildoer. You can't control the monsters you create.

Do they really think the rest of America doesn't see their blatant hypocrisy?

They probably don't care, or at least Mika Brzezinski doesn't -As one of the reigning #metoo queens, she made it clear that the movement shouldn't work against democrats.

on the allegations, she said, "You’re eating your young. You’re eating those who can beat Trump. You’re killing the very people who have been pushing women ahead, who have been fighting for equal pay, who have been doing everything they can to respect women in their lives"

1. No one I've heard of has accused Creepy Joe of breaking a law, "just" very inappropriate public behavior.

2. This isn't coming from Rs or conservatives. This is coming from Ds, Progs, and Libs. DU-folk should be asking two questions"

* Who?

* Why?

DU-folk should br trying to figure out why years of creepiness is suddenly "news", and whether its a Prog agenda to fight or an agenda about to be come the D Party line they must toe.

I was told yesterday by an acquaintance who leans left, that it was Conservatives who were attacking Biden.
I set him straight.

The former legislator from NV is a D. Another well known incident involved the wife of Obama's SecDef.

Contrast that with Kavanaugh's false-accusers, who were virulently anti-Trump.

Oh, DUmmie samnsara, I would bet a hundred bucks there's something more in your hubs' duffel bag than just a 'Too-long' hug.

I was thinking the same thing, DAT.
After all, he IS married to another DUmmie, so that there's probable cause to go out on a "field trip".
