If a man did this, it would be swept under the rug and not the focus of gleeful cyber bullying. Maybe he would have gotten fired but nobody would be here on DCUM.

No, he'd be charged with assault. As he should be.

Even so he would never be gossiped about.

I disagree

Find one example. I know of many male firm partners who did tons of sexual harassment and just quietly “left the firm.”

Thanks for this reminder of kindness. Of course one never thinks this will happen to your loved one, ao a good reminder in humility of a human being who made a stupid mistake.

Also, I appreciate your highlighting the disgraceful contrast:
the attention and consequence from this unusual and uncommon behavior (i.e., biting someone) which will have consequences for years.

the restriction of attention to “only those involved” for SEXUAL ASSAULT which is far more common, not always reported, and so secretive the label on the offender does not always follow the person around. And in some cases, even if it does….. it’s a point of pride.

As evidenced by what happens every single day! Shameful!

Men are biting people at your workplace every day?

Yep

It is a true story.

And she has done it in law school too.

Somehow she seems to believe it is cute in a wacky, manic pixie dream girl kind of way.

Maybe this will be a needed reality check.

I personally would love to gossip about him. Unfortunately I don't know of a single case! Please share, big law gossipers - how much is biting an issue at your firm?

Bs. First of all, talking about this online does not constitute cyber bullying, gleeful or otherwise. Second, if a male summer associate had done this he would not only be talked about but also seen as a danger to society. Wild summer associate stories are discussed on dcum largely because of the high percentage of posters who are affiliated with the legal profession. Sometimes the associate is male, sometimes female.

If I were her , I'd be proud. I mean it's kind of cool. I'm fascinated by her. I'd read her book and buy a copy.

Probably. If not hot would likely not have gotten so many chomps in before action was taken.

I think it was meant as playful bite by some awkward person

It happened quite a few times.

Glad to see Harvard is still pumping out the best! Best biters…

You are way too invested. No one is cyberbullying her. That's not what it means.

Then please explain why all of this--such as the forum here--and the posts here are okay, including the misinformation spread.

Because it's public information and it's true. You said she made a mistake. Most people's mistakes include boring things like speeding tickets. She's got a great opportunity to earn millions biting people on TikTok.

what does not being a public figure have to do with anything?

+1. The benefit she gets as not being a public figure is people aren't naming her.

Precisely. I have no idea who she is, and would like it to stay that way.

She was smart enough to get into Harvard law, she'll be fine.

No, she was not. Harvard undergrad but Northwestern for law school. Where she bit during moot court.

If a straight white male did this he would never recover professionally
