#2 The thing that concerns me the most in this situation is how decades old accusations are all of a sudden treated as gospel truth.

What happens when the female WAS asking for it?

This whole thing seems to smell like a swamp.

#6 You need the kind of evidence that will stand up in court, not just some bimbo saying the guy grabbed her butt.

(a) We'll have to start shooting back sooner or later anyway.
(b) And who knows, maybe some of these feminist males will get what feminism is all about nowadays.

#8 Hmm, I was expecting something different from the article.
Rather a lot of the Casting couch has been male on male...

There are not enough men coming forward.
