Donald Trump. Bill O'Reilly. Harvey Weinstein. Michael Oreskes. Kevin Spacey. Casey Affleck. Louis C.K. Roy Moore. Larry Nassar. The list keeps growing, and we know that for every big name accused of sexual misconduct there are countless more in the stories of millions of women who have been coming forward to say “me too.”
In this moment, it is crucial for men to be speaking publicly and unequivocally in support of standards for sexual behavior based on respect, meaningful mutual consent, and awareness of differences in power. But the scope and depth of the problem require more than this.

I’m not doing a damn thing.
Liberal Hollywood and liberal pop culture has increasingly sexualized women and children for decades. Their shock at the the way predominantly liberal men treat women and children is the height of ignorance, at best.
What the article author can do now—go �chop his d... off. He should feel much better, less “ guilty,” then.
In their minds the locker room banter of the Billy Bush tape, is the same as the actual misdeed, especially when women come forth saying they were inappropriately touched by him.
“A 2014 study found that almost a third of college men said they’d force a woman to have sex if they were sure they would get away with it.”
Hardly revelatory. I imagine if the question were about robbery or even murder, the statistic would be similar. The issue isn’t exclusive to men, either. No need to demonize them. A sizable percentage of the population behaves itself only because it would get punished if it didn’t. That’s why there is law enforcement. It’s human nature, or just nature.
I ain’t so sure. It’s what the left itself called a teachable moment.
Ironically what guys like Roy Moore actually did (rather than were alleged to do) is what mores ought to look like.
No, it isn't. It's critical for these whiny posers to shut the f___ up and quit pretending that every brush against their butt on the bus is an attempted rape. All we're doing is empowering a new class of (mostly fake) "victims." And more victims is the last thing this world needs.
Ladies: if a man tries to force you to have sex against your will, using FORCE, mind you, not just powerful words, then that is sexual assault. Anything else you can handle with a sharp word or at worst, a kick in the nuts. Grow up and manage your own lives like adults, instead of running to Teacher every time a mean old "bully" chants "London, London, I see France" at you.
About what exactly?
And they all miraculously disappeared right after the election when they no longer served their purpose to keep him from getting elected. Quite the coincidence, no?
Stopped at Donald Trump.
In my lifetime I've intervened in 3 separate cases where a woman was being sexually assaulted. Good men will always do something, when they witness a wrong being committed.
I'm guided in such matters by my upbringing by good,decent,admirable parents and by my Christianity.

That’s not what this article is saying, at all.
Go make me a sammich, Steven!
ditto...gives a lot of women a free ride to get away with dick murders so to speak
standards for sexual behavior based on respect, meaningful mutual consent, and awareness of differences in power.
1) Girls need to respect that the guy has to navigate the waters of sexual harassment just to ask her for a date, a date for which he is expected to pay, plus the pain of insensitive rejection. Give the guy some props, girl.
2) Can’t say what ‘meaningful’ has to do with mutual consent, though. Unless you consent without meaning it, which is just setting the guy up for a later legal backlash.
3) As for difference in power, the ongoing plague of critically unexamined accusations being taken as truth just because they come from women, points in the direction of where the power resides.
So, yeah.
