Sarah Hoyt: When Every Boy is Guilty, Every Girl Becomes A Monster
h/t Instapundit
[PJMedia] ...The most proximal one, though, is the accusation against Kavanaugh, which, even if true, would not be in any way actionable nor, barring this behavior persisting into adulthood, mean anything about his character as a grown up. High School has always been a weird and psychologically unstable part of anyone's growing up years, partly because we’re all learning the ropes of what "adult" means, and partly because we’re isolated with other kids, also all learning the ropes. (It’s not the best system, no.)

But this nonsense, which by the way, not only doesn’t rise to "credible" it’s barely past the level of "inane ramblings of crazy woman on the corner" are being given credibility and Senate is bending over backward to give that crazy woman the chance to ramble at them. Any way she wants to.

Which is a symptom of deeper corruption.

...the reaction older son got. I got a phone call saying he was sexually harassing a girl. Since at 6 he didn’t know how to spell "harassment" and would be uncertain on the meaning of "sexual" (both boys were far less curious than I was at their ages) I begged leave to differ, marched down to the school like the wrath of mom and demanded proof. At which point I was given a very bad, rather innocent poem. I mean the boy didn’t even say he wanted to kiss her. Just that she was pretty and her eyes were like stars. I pointed this out. I was sarcastic. It was resolved it would be forgotten if he just kept his poems to himself. (Which, honestly, every poet should be encouraged to do, since the collapse of society starts with open mic poetry nights.)
Something similar happened to Grom Jr. At the age of 7 he was accused of kissing a girl on a cheek against her will (as it turned out - her parents came to apologize later - she realized that it was against her will when she saw him kissing another girl). Fortunately, for everybody concerned, I didn't find out about this until later. Ex-wife called her mother - who keeps a law firm on retainer for feuding with Tel Aviv city hall - and one of the associates called the district school supervisor. Eventually we had to move Grom Jr to another school where the principal wasn't so "American" (a common Israeli expression). Since then he's reasonably free of trouble.
This should have been seen as a sign of things to come, but I wasn’t aware of the insanity stalking this land. Not yet. So I assumed it was Manitou Springs, and someone had overindulged in hash brownies.

...Next came elementary school in Colorado Springs. Younger son (slower developing than his brother, and at that time completely unaware of the difference in "vive la difference.") was in third grade.

...I was at the dentist. We lived in the Old North End, the first trolley car suburb. Meaning it was about a mile and a half to downtown, four blocks North to the elementary school and four blocks south to my dentist.

I’m sitting in the waiting room. The dentist is a strict Christian, and his magazines are the cleanest sort, his clientele mostly elderly. I get a phone call. And hear words coming out of my mouth. And all the elderly women staring at me in horror, because they were rather special in that kind of words.

So I told the elderly ladies "the school is telling me they’re calling the police because my 8-year-old touched a girl."

...Now fast forward to this incident reported today in a Colorado Springs middle school (heavens, I hope it’s the same. This bad a crazy infecting more than one school would be scary.): Boy, 13, Arrested, Cuffed And Dragged From School Over #MeToo Allegations.

...And what girls are learning in our society, partly through warped women like that playground guard who decided kids’ interacting was sexual harassment when younger son was in third grade, is that all men are dangerous, evil and guilty of something. And that women accusing them of made up stuff is not only all right, and not only brings power, but it’s somehow "heroic" and gets the girl or woman praise and adulation.
It is a "Handmaid Tale", except in reverse, in schools and universities - and with #MeToo it's came out into society at large
