[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele]I am not sure why you are comparing consensual relationships to unwanted, forced, sexual assault. That's basically the same thing the poster to whom you objected was doing. A woman (or man) who is willing to sleep with his/her boss to get ahead is completely different from someone forced into an unwanted sexual situation. It is wrong to compare them.

Agreed, and that's what poster(s?) in the Harvey W thread were doing, shortly before this thread appeared.  I'm sure you're aware of people who are blaming the women by claiming they chose to sleep with him for career advancement.  You cannot truly see no correlation to those statements and then this thread appearing shortly after? [/quote]

I removed those posts from the Weinstein thread because I considered them inappropriate. A different poster started the new thread. Whether there is a correlation is not something I can determine.

I'm just a little surprise that you don't understand as long as there is a person willing to bang their boss to keep their job, there is s 16 yo girls pressured to do the same to keep her minimum wage job to help feed her family.

Much of this is done at a very low level and there are girls hardly 18 blowing their managers to keep their job or to get a raise to $9/hr.

It is a system put in place to keep certain women down, it's an abuse of power. Like a teacher screwing a student. Sexual harassment is a form of rape. (We don't call it that cause "good guys" do it.

Sure raping a 3 yo is worse, but it is on the continuum.[/quote]

What makes you think that I don't understand those things? Of course I understand those things. Again, go join the actual discussion and argue your points. My only concern is whether the discussion fits our guidelines and the posts are on topic.

Because you seem to be deliberately dodging them and not acknowledging how distressing and offensive the thread is within that context.

You also acted like it was absurd to compare Harvey Weinstein's sexual abuse with a boss-subordinate sexual relationship... when, in reality, they are one in the same.  At the very, very least- on a small, uneasy continuum. [/quote]

Are you going to call him a misogynist? [/quote]
