is anyone else kinda getting tired of the "me too" stuff?

I mean what woman hasn't occasionally used her ways to get something from a man? how many traffic tickets have I gotten out of by unbuttoning just one button? so many Fridays I got to go home early by a little harmless teasing of the boss? women are acting like it is the end of the world because when they were in hs, some guy touched thier boob. cmon everbody.

I'm going to assume you're a troll because it's better than the kind of woman who'd get out of traffic tickets by unbuttoning your shirt or leaving work early after you teased the boss. You are one of the reasons there's a MeToo movement needed.

No, many of us aren't tired of the MeToo movement because it's not about a guy leaning in too close at work. It's about rape, assault, the systematic harassment and sexualization of women. It's about teaching young girls they don't have to tease and use their bodies to placate men or get their way.

If you're not a troll and truly don't understand this, I wish you well and I wish you safety.

@Graylight I am a married woman and my husband approves of and encourages me to live happy like we do. you must be miserable. constantly looking for someone to blame for your situation. its nauseating. just live and have fun and if some jerk tries to grab your ass, either enjoy it, kick him in the balls or call the police, whichever you prefer. but don't complain 35 yrs after it happens.

You don't know me. My life philosophy centers around personal accountability.

That includes men who treat women with sexual, misogyny, violence or harrassment. That includes women who 'get by' by allowing it and dismissing it as the way things are.

I elect you to tell all the girls molested as children and teens not to bother with reporting their victimization and holding their assailants accountable.

@Graylight of course abuse of children is an entirely different subject.

Sorry,@Graylight I think most of us don't agree with you at all. You have the wrong idea about the me too movement.
And good for you 'vacationgirl'... Us men still love all those trival cute things you do to us

@Midlifemale There's flirting and then there's inappropriate behavior. If the difference needs to be explained, we have a problem on our hands.

@vacationgirl How's it different? What's the cut-off? A girl molested at 12 would be 47 given your example. And here you are saying some who reports it 35 wars later shouldn't even bother.
