        How are these people getting inside and getting that close to a politician without consequences? Where are there security?

        Imagine if it was male protestor’s getting into a female senator’s face and not allowing her off of the elevator.....

        Senator Flake had just *entered* the elevator. One of the women held the door open by putting her foot against the door on the *opposite* side! While certainly uncomfortable for Senator Flake, this is hardly “in your face,” which is why you can see all of Senator Flake.

        You nailed there. Holding the door open impeding his freedom to leave. By law you can not detain someone if you didn’t know. And harassing someone which means unwanted gestures such as her screaming is harassment. I guarantee reverse the roles she would be crying harassment.

        No doubt. There would be outrage if the genders were reversed here. A male protestor would have been hauled away in handcuffs. Maybe you and I are out on an island, but I’d say she’s definitely in his face, and definitely preventing him from leaving...https://twitter.com/foxandfriends/status/1045988305874018304?s=21 …

        Well, she certainly is keeping the elevator from leaving — so to the extent that he is trying to ride the elevator, you can read it that way. Also, if the genders were reversed, I think how it would be viewed would depend on the distance between them and their relative heights.

        Maaayyybe I’ll give you the height argument.... but more times than not, the woman’s stature will be smaller... that’s just how we’re built.

        I think you are right — and that the typical height difference is why it is more likely that the woman will be intimidated if the roles were reversed and the petiole are standing relatively close together (where I don’t actually know how close is “too close.@
