Re: Name & Shame 'em!!!

Julia Hartley-Brewer says Michael Falon once put his hand on her knee - she said: "I calmly and politely explained to him that, if he did it again, I would 'punch him in the face'

She also added that she did NOT consider herself a victim.

Is she the only sensible person around? She certainly puts this current witch hunt into perspective!

Re: Name & Shame 'em!!!

I think it depends what age and how confident you are tbh. A younger woman inexperienced, unsure with herself may have not found her voice.

I was approached when I was about 16 it didn't traumatise me but I did change how I related to men, changed my job and never worked in that close environment again.

Few years later man grabbed my bum and really regretted it as it was second time I was ready my instinct took over and he limped away with a foot imprint half way up his shin and my elbow had found his eye.

Only difference was I was 10 years older and more confident and experienced.

But I think it's very dangerous to judge victims as wanting as all women are different. I can remember a man I worked with who used to put his arm through mine to walk down to lunch just a friendly non threatening gesture and I was find with it, but another lady I worked with took great offence, a few months later she left her husband and we realised she was being repeatedly raped by him, she had seen in a kind gesture something wasn't there because of her experiences.

It's a bit of a mine field my advice to my boys has always been unless explicitly invited never touch a woman ever, no fun no playing around if you wouldn't touch me that way don't touch them. It's worked so far, they are very respectful young men, Jordan's wife tells me he is a complete gentleman.

Teach next generation to be like that and we end this here.

Re: Name & Shame 'em!!!

If, as Theresa May promises, members found guilty of sexual offences will be either sacked or lose the 'whip', there are currently over 30 + scumbag 'nasty party MPs under investigation. This could mean that the scumbag 'nasty party', having already lost its majority might now lose the confidence of the 'House' to govern.

Re: Name & Shame 'em!!!

Why am I not surprised at this little snippet of information regarding the 'scumbag 'nasty party's' attitudes to sexual harassment - seems quite a lot of them may have a lot to hide!!!

...Hartley Brewer also pointed out that all this hysterical (anti) social media 'naming and shaming nonsense' now used instead of going through the correct channels actually trivialises genuine sexual harassment cases as I suggested in a post yesterday.

I've seen it as freeing up court time, I can't imagine any cases can go forward if everyone in the world has heard about the cases on the Internet.
