True, but unfortunately, it's a truth without a distinction.
In sexual harassment cases, it's not harassment until someone complains.... and in virtually every case, (and in way more cases than it actually occurs) someone complains.
Remember in CRA 1991 cases, all that has to happen is for a plaintiff to be able to elucidate a "feeling" they had/have. A plaintiff saying she (or he) "felt" they would not get promoted unless they did the "Dance With No Steps" is enough to get them into court.
Some of the most bawdy sex jokes or personal genitalia descriptions are spoken in the ladies room, but let a male boss say one thing, and it's summons time
Regarding complaints. In incidents such as yours, everyone ends up happy and there are often no complaints. But it's like illegal investment schemes. It can be illegal as hell, but if everyone is making 3% a month, no one complains!
Which is all true but nobody has sued him yet. We’ve got indications this has been going on at least 15 years, probably a lot longer. If he was crossing the line, or even getting close to the line, somebody probably would have sued by now.
It probably helps a lot that he’s in the entertainment industry. So many people assume the casting couch is where all women in entertainment get their jobs I think a lot of lawyers figure juries will write it off as a pre-accepted risk.
