[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is a little bit of collateral damage from the MeToo movement.  I am ALL for women and girls speaking out about sexual abuse and harassment, but I think it is often also taken way too far - in terms of being allowed to assume the worst in questionable cases, being allowed to accuse men of these things without any evidence and then everyone being required to take those accusations completely seriously.  A classic pendulum swing in the other direction.  And that never ends well.

Your husband didn't do anything weird.  He is just socially awkward and clueless and doesn't realize yet that he has to work a lot harder to make sure he doesn't look like a creep in this day and age.  Basically, those bad apples (and there are plenty), ruined it for the rest of the decent men out there.  It's not totally fair, but that's what it is, and he has to be aware and act accordingly.  Rules like don't ever be in the room alone with another female alone.  [/quote]

Not picking on you, but all the PP's saying "he didn't do anything wrong" and "teen girls are just dramatic and think everyone's obsessed with them" seem to be glossing right over the fact that OP said she herself was "concerned" by the amount of attention her DH pays to these girls, before any teenager voiced discomfort.

Two things can be true: [b]non-creepy adult men have to be extra cautious around kids and teen girls because the wrong accusation could be devastating, and OP's DH is not a non-creepy adult men.  He's setting off teen and adult warning bells in equ[/b]al measure.[/quote]

This part is so very true.  Ask your own DH.
