The age-old acceptance of powerful men – and women – making sexual advances to subordinates appears to be coming to an end.
At least superficially and for political purposes.
Accusations against a conservative political candidate have open the Genie’s bottle and we are seeing them come from all sides – and both coasts. Exposing oneself in the hallowed halls of Congress now seems to be a common as the famous Casting Couch.
How far will it go? Will anything actually be done about it?
Women (and men) are coming forward with their stories. Most of them had valid reasons for not coming forward before, whether it was out of fear, shame, helplessness, or simply because they didn’t think anyone would believe them. Thanks to the floodgates Harvey Weinstein’s accusers opened and the support the accusers are getting in the media and on social media, courage is finally getting the better of the men who used their power to prey on people.
