        I propose: A’, and NOT B A’ = Most women experience sexual harassment or assault at some point (but most men do not engage in same.) Not B: To the degree that there is inequality, much of it favors women: greater college attendance & graduation rates, less incarceration… 2/3

        Furthermore: “half the population persistently refuses to believe…women”? No. But many people do look at absurd “A therefore B” constructions and reject them. This is not vile, or disrespectful, or misogynist. Rejecting bad arguments is, in fact, exactly what we need. 3/3

        I like this sentence: "No one wants innocent boys and men to be unfairly targeted and hurt." except for everyone demanding that women have to be believed without a shred of doubt. Because that is how you harm innocent boys and men: when you willfully protect liars.

        What most feminists and many others seem unable to accept is that there are as many unscrupulous women as unscrupulous men.

        Our culture today boils down to an ancient idea about “women’s intuition,” yet another bad A therefore B argument. A: Women have a an innate ability to use emotions to help make decisions. B: They are psychic, magical, able to “know” truth sans evidence, and seldom lie.

        "Why don't 'good men' believe women?" They do when there's proof. They doubt when there's not. They know women can lie. Puzzle solved.

        Judge Don Metcalfe of Thin Blue Line fame wept at the prosecutor’s mention of concepts of disorder and injustice yet he missed the grave injustice occurring right in front of his face (i.e., man wrongly convicted and sentenced to death over trial he was presiding).

        Ideologues with their religious tenets have no ability to see the injustices they inflict. We need to stop listening to them and find our way back to reason.

        I never liked articles like this. I believe most women. Therefore I want them to go to law enforcement, court, and legal means to fight the problem. Coincidentally, using legal means also will weed out the liars.

        this incendiary, divisive languaging is so, so troubling. gross hyperbole. sweeping generalizations. moronic leaps of (il)logic. oy.

        You’ve only reacted to it emotionally ... how about actually lining out an argument to refute the so-called “(il)logic.”

        assessing the illogic and the languaging leaps is hardly an emotional endeavor. there's no substance here worth tackling. to say "half the population refuses to believe sexual assault shapes women's lives" is to ascribe unknown intention to said shady population estimate. 1/2

        We shouild begin by discussing workplace rules. Are current laws & their interpretation covering certain behaviors sufficient? Are current common workplace controls, reporting options, investigations, enforcement, punishments, (etc...) fair & sufficient?

        Most sexual harassers are serial harassers. Think Harvey Weinstein & Matt Lauer. Though millions of women are harassed (often seen as assault), I wildly estimate that only about 2 percent of men are harassers. Some of this is caused by toxic...femininity. See what I mean in:

        This just in: people tend to believe others who they know personally more than people they hear about in headlines.
