Monica Lewinsky calls Clinton affair a “gross abuse of power”

NEW YORK -- Monica Lewinsky says the affair that led to impeachment proceedings against President Bill Clinton "was not sexual assault" but "constituted a gross abuse of power." Lewinsky writes in the March issue of "Vanity Fair" that she is "in awe of the sheer courage" of women who've been confronting "entrenched beliefs and institutions." The former White House intern says she was recently moved to tears when a leader of the #MeToo movement told her, "I'm so sorry you were so alone."

Lewinsky wasn’t a sexually naive virgin at 22 years of age.

It was sexual harassment. A man used his position of power to obtain sex. He led her to believe she would get a job. She was an intern.

The feminist definition of harassment applies here, and he does not get a free pass because he keeps abortion available.

I guess, to a degree, we were all stupid when we were young. But I swear, this gal set a new standard for stupid. Did somebody just wake you up, Monica? . . . just go back to sleep.

yes! her auntie took her out to buy lingerie once she found out about the affair. Who does that?! I would have counseled my niece NOT to have an affair with a married man.

Give her a pass...she was young and naive and Clinton was and is a predator. Like many young women she confuses a man wanting sex with a man loving or liking her. Clinton knew this and exploited it for all it was worth.
