    Yes, this exactly. I don't think a lot of people fully realize the strength of the behind-the-scenes underground network of women helping each other. I've been on both sides of this support and it's absolutely critical and vital.https://twitter.com/ashleyn1cole/status/952197928084533258 …

    Women are not going to stop warning each other about assaulters, abusers, harassers and discriminators. We're going to make lists, spreadsheets, secret FB groups & invite the new girl out for drinks & a chat. So you might as well start behaving as if your name could be on a list.

        Question: I found out today that a female classmate has recently moved in with a guy that another female classmate told me sexually assaulted her. I wanted to tell the first classmate but the second classmate asked me (and others present) not to tell anyone. Advice?

        If they feel that it's a true sexual assault then they should report it to the police.

        Oh right, maybe then they should sit down and tell their friends who want to go around bitching and moaning about it on the internet rather than actually doing something productive and helpful. The only way anything will be done is if you people actually use the correct avenues.

        Unfortunately, a man who so much as looks in the vague, general direction of a woman actually commits rape within that split second, didn't you know? It's the way modern feminism works these days; label men for being a rapist, or whatever, but don't go to the police -

        "Women are not going to stop warning each other about assaulter, abusers, harassers and discriminators" Well, considering i've just read an article saying you might be descriminating if you refuse to date a trans, i'm less inclined to take that part seriously.

        Dating has always been discriminative. If someone refuses to date you because you don't tick their boxes, get over it.

        I like blondes, I prefer brunettes. I wouldn't like to date trans girls because it'd personally feel awkward, since biologically their dna is still male.

        And it's perfectly within your rights to refuse to date people. I, personally, absolutely hate this idea that anything that people _choose_ to do is now discriminating against someone else. I think it's discrimination that playboy models don't want to date me. Pls halp!

        Making secret FB groups, lists and spreadsheets of people who harass, abuse and discriminate worsens the problem. "Going underground" and starting groups does nothing but hide the problem, and it makes it all sound shady af.

        If someone has been assaulted, abused, attacked the first thing you do: CALL THE POLICE. Secret FB Groups, Spreadsheets, and lists do 1000% nothing.

        I disagree, they help reduce the number of the crimes that have to be reported. Can the police take effective action every time a man whispers lewd threats in my ear? Do I stand by and say nothing when this man meets a friend of mine for the first time?

        that's not a crime and not the same thing. If #metoo ladies had named names when it happened, there would be vastly less victims. Speak up!

        So it's okay as long as it's not illegal? Maybe gross sexual threats aren't even the worst thing I've told a friend about a man I knew. I was hoping the example would be considered "bad" enough. And the point of a network is that it's naming names, or it's not of much use.

        Things that are "ok" vary by person but the law is concrete. And I think it's smart to share with people you care about. Illegal illicit behaviour needs to have consequences with teeth, not just be gossipped about, tho

        The law actually isn't very concrete in terms of what constitutes a sexual assault. I think it would be great if there was a standard legal definition and also a standard sentence that was upheld more often. I don't really think of warning others of a potential threat as gossip.

        It doesn't fail to describe it, it fails to be specific. And that's just federal law (https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/10/920 …). Each state also has their own /different/ laws and definitions, derived somehow from the federal one. Across the country, the same case would have different outcomes.
