What will women gain from all this squawking about sex pests? A Niqab
DailyMail.com ^ | 11/5/2017 | Peter Hitchens

Posted on 11/05/2017 5:41:42 AM PST by Nextrush

Behold my new proposed autumn look for women in politics. The black, I think, is flattering and it radiates an air of cool unapproachability. No Minister would put his hand on the knee of anyone dressed like this; indeed, he'd have trouble finding her knee or anything else.

Well, isn't this this what you want, all you squawking flapping denouncers of groping men and 'inappropriate' jokes?

You have lots in common with Militant Islamists on this subject.....

...the severe dress codes and sexual segregation which modern liberals claim to find so shocking about Islam.

Yet on this, it turns out that you agree with them. Any male action, any form of words you choose to disapprove of can and will be presumed to be guilty because, well, men are like that. The culprit will be ruined forever.

Are you all off your heads? Do you have any sense of proportion?

The country is in the midst of its biggest constitutional crisis for a century, and wobbling on the precipice of bankruptcy......

you think the most important thing in your lives is a hunt for long-ago cases of wandering hands, or tellers of coarse jokes? Yes, you do.

You have lost all touch with reality, and future generations will laugh at you......

Michael Fallon was one of the worst Defense Secretaries in history.

The Army is a skeleton, the Navy dead in the water, largely motionless and stripped of it most basic capacities.....

But was Mr. Fallon made to quit over that? No. Neither the political class nor their pals in the media class care about such things. He was driven from office because is alleged not to be safe in mixed company.....

...I am a Victorian prude....still secretly shocked by coarse words, especially used in front of women or children.....

Peter Hitchens weighs in on the sexual harassment controversies about us in government and society that led to the recent resignation of British Defense Secretary Michael Fallon.

He isn't endorsing rape or approving of the wrong behavior when it comes to sex, but warning of where fanaticism about such matters may lead.

We've been too liberal to be sure, but humanity has always had this knack for going to extremes like witch hunting and so on once something is demonized in the media etc. etc.

I've been hurt sexually growing up in those "open minded" times of the 1960's and 70's but I've got to heal and raging against the wrongs done to me and seeking revenge hurts me more than helps me.

The humanistic forces that dominate the world, secular and religious, offer extremes of liberality and strict draconian rules.

In the Good Book, dare I say, the Sadducees and Pharisees were around.

While a lot of British colloquialisms drive me nuts (e.g. “went missing”, “in hospital”) I think the Brits hit the nail on the head with the “sex pest” moniker. Our women are just so dumb about it. All you have to do is tell the sex pest to knock it off, or point at their dick and hoot with laughter, or tell them to drop dead.

This is a great article and the women who are complaining want it both ways.

As long as women go on supporting ideology over their own sexuality, this will never change. Notice, not one word from NOW on this or any women’s groups for that matter. Nothing about Hollywood money being off the table for politicians.

Funniest thing about this was it all started as “Trump is a pu$$y grabber” and the unintended consequence of all of this is Trump was clean and they were all dirty.

Laugh, but I actually saw a lecture where a (supposed) feminist was praising the Hijab because it “took sex out of the equation”.

I realized that this was a mass psychosis when some hysterical airhead, ruled by her p***y, claimed that Bush the Elder, an old man in a wheelchair, failing physically and cognitively, had “sexually assaulted” her, when his hand patted her butt.
They are not mentally stable, but then we know that liberalism is a mental disorder.

You hit the nail on the head, as confirmed by the sometimes decades of silence Weinstein’s accusers chose.

All you dear women...I suppose you hubbies never put a hand on you. And remember....you didn’t know you were going to wind up married to the octopus.

Sex pest describes Bill Clinton very well.

In a March 22, 1998 Op/Ed piece in the New York Times, Gloria Steinem effectively gave support to the notion that a man may: (1) uninvited, open-mouth kiss a woman; (2) uninvited, fondle a woman’s breast; and (3) uninvited, take a woman’s hand and place it on the man’s genitals; and as long as the man retreats once the woman says “no” that this does not constitute sexual harassment. This has become known in the popular culture as the “One Free Grope” Theory. The Op/Ed piece was written in an attempt to defend then President Clinton against allegations of sexual impropriety that had been made by White House volunteer Kathleen Willey.

Groping is a two way street.

When a woman gropes a man she is interested in...it never (well I suppose maybe once or twice in history) gets reported or complained about. It is the double standard feminists never admit to.

Women groping men? It does happen. Take my word 😜

In the movie Primary Colors the James Carville character exposes himself to the Pretty Young Thing campaign worker in front of the whole campaign staff and asks, "Do you know what this is?" She replies, "It's like a penis, only smaller."

Sorry. I assume everybody on the internet is a male until proven otherwise. It's my inner sexist, I think.

Impressive. Your education and training lends credence to your annoyance about English colloquialisms and supports mine as well. Thank you.
