I got some of the story wrong. So did you, and you continue to do so, with your comments about the nature of the harassment.
No, guy, I haven't gotten one thing wrong. I was around when it happened and read every bit of info available on it.... I watched the hearings as they happened.
She gave her reasons for transferring to EEOC.
And they were silly. They made not a lick of sense, ESPECIALLY in the context that the Reagan Administration was looking to shut down EEOC and get the government out of that line of work.
You do not seem to grasp that she was pursuing a particular line of work, and seem to believe that she could have worked for some other EEOC.
Her whole career at EEOC was two years. She didn't have to work there. She had the credentials to work in a lot of places. She eventualy ended up in Academia, because all those people are useless.
Actually, she was kind of the Peter Principle. One of the lame excuses she gave for not coming forward at the time was that she wasn't sure if it was harrassment or not. Really? Seriously? This is YOUR LINE OF WORK!
There are many harassed women who don't tell what happened to all of their coworkers. You wonder why? Look at your own line of attack on her, and your creepy defense of offenders.
Or maybe I see both sides of the story. I worked with this woman who was a drunk and a tramp who slept with almost every guy in the office. She even put the moves on me, except that I don't take advantage of women when they are drunk. She had a whole boatload of psychological problems. I think she was even a lesbian for a while. Lost track of her after that.
(and incidently, not that I was hostile to her as much as I felt sorry for her.)
Well, she accused our boss of sexual harrassment and the poor guy almost got fired. Over a BS conversation over which celebrity they both thought was sexy. What was she really mad about? He actually asked her to do her job.
What I find amazing is that if there is a need for sexual harrassment laws, it is not for women like Hill who have doctorate in law and can get any job they apply themselves to. It's for people like Paula Jones, who consider a 20K a year job a blessing.
But guess who the liberals villified for speaking up.
