Beyond the religious-liberty implications, men’s reticence about being alone with women shouldn’t surprise anyone. The #MeToo movement of the last few years has brought a chorus of voices urging us to “Believe all women” making assault or harassment allegations.

When “Believe all women” is the party line, it’s only prudent for men to take themselves out of situations where they risk being accused of anything. #MeToo began with a serious mission of exposing powerful men who had sexually harassed, and in some cases assaulted, women and gotten away with it.

But thanks to “Believe all women,” it spiraled to a place where accusations went unchecked and were instantly believed. Some websites maintain running lists of accused men, even if accusations are anonymous and/or largely uncorroborated.

In some cases, the accusation didn’t even make any sense. The comedian Aziz Ansari is clawing his way out of a reputational black hole after a woman accused him of being a bad date. He didn’t harass or assault anyone; he was simply bad at hooking up, and his date wrote a scathing piece about it.

Men have seen that they are guilty until proved innocent, and sometimes not even then. They have now — wisely — retreated from women.

Are men afraid to be alone with women? Of course they are. Robert Foster is just one of the few to admit it.

I'm sorry, but are women supposed to be f*cking chaperoned on dates now too so that men don't have to suffer the risk of someone calling them out on their sh*t? Or what is the point of bringing in Aziz Ansari?

Just f*cking say it: YOU HATE WOMEN and you think that women are bad, polluted, and don't belong in public because we are untrustworthy witches.


Maybe men should be talking with their fellow men and telling them to knock off the harassment and the assaults because they're ruining it for all men.

What I love is how these same men probably sneer at the idea that African Americans fear police.

I can see this piece touched a nerve with you.
And, BTW, I am a woman. So is the author of the piece.

Internalized misogyny is a helluva drug.

Do you know that men have made many false accusations?

I mean police MEN, planting drugs in people's cars and ruining their lives. Just the other day was a story about a cop who made false accusations planting evidence, and a man lost both his job and custody of his daughter because of it.

This means by your logic that no one should ever be alone with a policeman/men. If a policeman/men pulls you over then there has to be one other non-policeman there watching. Body cams don't do it. Don't you agree?

Meanwhile, elsewhere in the Mississippi GOP:

“I heard the mayor’s sister says she wants to be a supervisor. What she needs to do is learn to be a woman. A woman needs to be a woman. Supervisor’s a man’s job.”
— Malcolm Johnson, a candidate for the Hinds County Board of Supervisors

https://mississippitoday.org/2019/07/16/a-mans-job-democratic-hinds-county-candidate-says-women-dont-belong-on-county-boards/

“Only 17 of the 410 county supervisors in Mississippi are women.... and just 14 percent of lawmakers are women, despite making up 52 percent of the state population. This is the worst gender disparity within a state legislature in the country.”

JFC.

“A second gubernatorial candidate in Mississippi has stated he will not be alone with a woman who is not his wife, arguing that “appearances are important.”

Former state Supreme Court chief justice Bill Waller Jr. told Mississippi Today, “I just think it’s common sense.”
