    Et Tu, Brute? Our Sexual Misconduct Conundrum

    It was bound to happen: Someone I hold in high regard would get caught up in the sexual misconduct feeding frenzy of #MeToo. It pulled me up short. Should everyone be judged by the same standards – or are criminal, immoral, and raunchy really different from one another? How do we judge?

    # YouToo? Ways We Can Stop Sexual Assault

    # YouToo. Let’s join forces to stop sexual assault. It’s too pervasive to vanquish alone.
    Sexual assault, or any form of sexual misconduct, casts a long shadow. What can we do, as women? Embrace Zero Tolerance. Refuse to be bamboozled. Be prepared to make a scene: Scream. Kick. Bite. Punch. Slap. Call the police. Take photos of proffered porn and exposed body parts. Record trash talk. Always, ALWAYS document every detail. What can supportive by-standers do? Tell these predators that real men don’t assault women, or brag that they do. Sexual assault is not a spectator sport.

    # MeToo-2: Why Women Don’t Report Sexual Assault

    Too often, the victim of a sexual assault is criticized because she does not immediately report her assailant, sometimes holding it inside for years. Why?

Or her assailant and his protectors may ignore her, smother her voice as if she doesn’t exist. That was my story.
