I Did Nothing Wrong But Someone May Have Experienced It 'Differently'

[donttread]

One of my second cousins uploaded a photo of herself on myspace wearing an empty twelve pack container as a hat. I am relatively certain she didn't recall doing it. College is such a fun experience.

Thank God there were no cell phones/ camera phones in my day. With my friends I would of needed no enemies.

That's it then. Trudeau is guilty, you convinced me, Polly. I mean, it is a He said, She said. But, so what. I mean...….you....Polly....have 'just read' up on these reports from the news in the last 24 hours, you wrote so yourself. Thus, it is so rare that these are isolated incidents....there must be other women who have kept all this quiet and suppressed. Rare is it your very words speaking to Trudeau's very character. And then forget men in Canada.....look to the stats here in the US...…...81% of women here......I don't know what in the fck this has to do with this Trudeau accusation but Polly thinks it's relevant so....81%......more than 8 in 10 women here....have been sexually harassed. So.....

by addition, subtraction, division...especially division...and dangling a participle or two, you've convinced my Trudeau is a sexual predator, I believe this woman outright, don't have any reason to doubt her. I'm kinda upset as he is the Canadian PM and fairly easy to push around. Spineless.

The math

I believe the woman + rare is it these things happen in a vacuum - many more women will me too / women in America are harassed on an epic scale * I've a victim's mentality

This is great stuff, Polly, you are a trained professional.

My opinion was requested directly, by name. I have submitted it in the most clear way that I can. I now leave the rest of you to your collective meltdown.

Definitions have a lot to do with some of these stats. Someone told me that for one study "pressure" was considered sex assault. I have not verified this but I do not doubt it given the "quality" of politically charged studies these days. If it weren't for "pressure we'd all be only children! So 81% is probably not by the HR get you written up definition. even though sex harrassment is a " victim defined crime"
I think it was SNL years ago that did a spot called something to the effect of "If you want to get away with sexual harassment be good looking". The dumpy guy was accused for just asking a work related question while the handsome smooth talker said highly suggestive things to the same woman. Way too much truth in that.

Allow me to 2nd that request then. Please, directly and by name, I urge you to submit even more of your current theme here, I find it fascinating. You keep referring to bein denied opinion or having to be asked. Please, this is your floor. Carry on.

Mr. Trudeau is being subjected here to the court of public opinion, not a court of law. We needn't conflate the two. I am allowed to have instincts in the court of public opinion.

It seems as though you have two instincts which are guided by your political views.

[Lummy]

I'm not denying you your "instincts" at all and understand it's all about the court of public opinion.

Oops ...

I am allowed to have instincts in the court of public opinion.

Kinda hawt, actually.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau responded again Thursday to allegations that he groped a female reporter nearly 20 years ago at the 2000 Kokanee Summit festival ...
The allegations first appeared in an anonymous editorial in the Creston Valley Advance which resurfaced on Twitter. The article also says Trudeau apologized, saying “I’m sorry. If I had known you were reporting for a national paper, I never would have been so forward.”

Brilliant.

I say she wanted it, and it's definitely time for women to clean up their act.
Twenty years is 19+ years too late to make these charges, and she should be fined or jailed for the accusation.
