The "Sexual Harassment" Myth
A woman can accuse a man (or another woman) of sexual harassment if the other person “stands too close” and makes “hand movements” that makes her “uncomfortable.” Sexual harassment then becomes what the woman THINKS is sexual harassment. She gets to DEFINE what CONSTITUTES sexual harassment. This is wrong. But that is how we operate today. If a woman accuses a person of “sexual harassment” with some “vague reference” as to what CONSTITUTES it, they are believed implicitly. The other person is “stained” by the accusation and does NOT get to face his (or her) accuser, whose identity is kept secret. This is DOUBLY wrong, but again, this is how we operate today. If a man accuses a WOMAN of sexual harassment, he is laughed at, and nothing ever comes of the accusation. Some men say they WISH some woman would “sexually harass” them. The whole “sexual harassment” thing is based on an unconstitutional method allowing the person making the accusation to DEFINE what constitutes sexual harassment (subjective) while not allowing the accused to confront his (or her) accuser, which is patently unconstitutional, and rightly so. I feel sorry for ANYBODY some woman “targets” for a “sexual harassment” accusation. There is no way the accused can defend him(her)self against such vague, ill-defined accusations, especially when he(she) cannot directly confront his(her) accuser. (Just common sense)

I totally agree. There is no way Cain can defend himself when people accept vague accusations as serious sexual harrassment and it derails his campaign. From the days when there was not much a woman can do if sexually harrassed, the pendulum has swung too far in the opposite direction. This is not good thing. Further, it does not bode well for employment of women.
Anon: That can work in his favor as Democrats "cry wolf" over and over again while ignoring their own sexual harassment, which has been proven (Clinton).
The only way it could work in Cain's favor is if there were fair media reporting and fair and equal treatement of each candidate. That 'ain't gonna happen'. For some reason if a democrate does it, it enhances his public image. People actual want clinton to run again, the whore, yet are destroying Cain's campaign on pure accusations.
It's a "given" that something that will eliminate a Republican will only enhance things for a Democrat/ Sexual misconduct is a resume enhancer for Democrats because liberals run the media. "For some reason?" That's the reason.
