Help me out... is your definition truly the definition of sexual harassment. Because if they are consenting (meaning one was not forced by having her job put in jeopardy), where's the harassment?

Wouldn't Jordan's part be 1) either the coverup or 2) the blackmail.

Sex between consenting adults, one of whom is a subordinate of the other, is not LEGALLY sexual harassment. But it is so easy to transform it into sexual harassment in litigation that it is sexual harassment FOR ALL PRACTICAL PURPOSES.

It's not just about Lewinsky, it's about the workplace and everyone else there.

This is one of the worst cases of sexual harassment I've ever heard of. First the gap in power is immense. Second, a hostile work environment was created.

How would you like it if you were one of the interns, and one of your co-workers,let's call her Monica, was during working hours, messing around with the boss, at work?

Other co-workers had to cover for her, handling some of her responsibilities, because she was 'busy'.

Once it became a news story. being a 'whitehouse intern' became a joke. and didn't look nearly as impressive ont he resume.
