Quote from: "Bricktop"That makes no sense; unless they sue in a civil court, they don't get a penny. And because its a criminal matter, the fact that a rape or similar occurred in a criminal court does not mean that a civil hearing would succeed. Also, they would have to prove damages...which would be very difficult if you've lived an opulent life for 20 years.



There's very little money in victimhood.

They do not want to go to court. The gold digging accusers are looking for settlements. The US congress has paid out more than $17 million in settlements in the last twenty years.


Really?

There were two Liberal members of our federal parliament who were accused of sexual harassment.

[size=200]Rep. John Conyers steps down from committee leadership position amid harassment accusations[/size]

WASHINGTON — Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., stepped down as the ranking Democratic member of the House Judiciary Committee on Sunday, following sexual harassment accusations.



The 27-term congressman said he denied the allegations, but was stepping down because of the ongoing House Ethics Committee investigation.



"I deny these allegations, many of which were raised by documents reportedly paid for by a partisan alt-right blogger. I very much look forward to vindicating myself and my family before the House Committee on Ethics," Conyers said in a statement.



"To be clear, I would like very much to remain as Ranking Member," he added. "There is still much work to be done on core concerns like securing civil rights, enacting meaningful criminal justice reform, and protecting access to the ballot box."



Appearing on "Meet The Press" earlier in the day, House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi urged "due process" before making conclusions about Rep. Conyers, saying the congressman is "an icon" who has worked to protect women.



"We are strengthened by due process. Just because someone is accused — and was it one accusation? Is it two?" Pelosi asked.



"John Conyers is an icon in our country. He has done a great deal to protect women - Violence Against Women Act, which the left — right-wing — is now quoting me as praising him for his work on that, and he did great work on that," she added. "But the fact is, as John reviews his case, which he knows, which I don't, I believe he will do the right thing."



Conyers' office recently confirmed issuing a settlement of $27,000 to a former staffer who says she was fired for resisting the congressman's sexual advances. Conyers has acknowledged the payout, which he said amounted to a severance package, but he denied the allegations about what it was for.



The payout from Conyers' office first became public in a report published by Buzzfeed on Monday, and came after a number of men in powerful positions in politics, entertainment and media have faced public accusations of sexual harassment. The accusations have opened up a national conversation about how women are treated in the workplace by men in positions of power.



When asked specifically whether she believes the accusations against Conyers, Pelosi said: "I do not know who they are. Do you? They have not really come forward."



She repeatedly said that she wants to see the House Ethics Committee investigation of Conyers play out.



Conyers has held the powerful position on Capitol Hill as the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee for a decade, but after Pelosi's interview on Sunday, he announced that he would step down from the position while the Ethics Committee investigates.



Pelosi said in a statement later Sunday, "Zero tolerance means consequences. I have asked for an ethics investigation, and as that investigation continues, Congressman Conyers has agreed to step aside as Ranking Member."

Now Richard Branson has been outed.



I think some of these complaints are getting vexatious.



We are perhaps to believe that all these women are not flirtatious and alluring??

These things only affect the credibility of real harassment cases negatively.

When someone is  92, they don't give a flying fuck whether their opinion is politically correct.


QuoteAngela Lansbury has sparked controversy by suggesting women should accept ''some of the blame'' in some instances of sexual misconduct committed by men.



The 92-year-old actress - famous for her roles in 'Beauty and the Beast', TV series 'Murder She Wrote' and 'Nanny McPhee' - was quizzed about her opinion on the avalanche of sexual harassment and assault claims sweeping through Hollywood at present in an interview with Radio Times magazine, and she stated that sometimes there can be ''two sides to this coin'' due to the revealing and alluring clothes ladies wear.



She said: ''There are two sides to this coin. We have to own up to the fact women, since time immemorial, have gone out of their way to make themselves attractive. And unfortunately it has backfired on us, and this is where we are today. We must sometimes take blame. Although it's awful to say we can't make ourselves look as attractive as possible without being knocked down and raped.'

I disagree with old Angela. A gal that shows off her body in tight or revealing clothing wants attention, not unwelcome touching.
