Easy for Al Franken he’s an old wealthy guy.

What’s a young guy to do?

 

Ironic that the PC left has instigated a lot of this yet they are the ones losing senate and house seats.

Not sexually harass women?   Just tossing that out there as something to maybe do.

 

You know, maybe don't show them your junk without consent.  Or grope them without consent.  Or kiss them without consent.  Or corner them in an office and suggest they give you a massage.  Or invite them to your hotel room for a business meeting with you and your aide, then get rid of the aid and ask them to perform oral sex on you. 

Maybe, just maybe, a young guy should treat them with respect and like a person?

I know it's a radical idea and counter to centuries of history, but it does seem like something we can aspire to.

^ no, that all sounds good, for sure.  Guys should be doing that.  But what do the guys do that crossed the line once, twice, or many more times, and they are still young?  Just re-train for careers less in the limelight?

 

Top executives in other industries I guess are getting away with stuff, as their acts are not very newsworthy.

It is easy to agree with you on the specific actions that you outline. What about this one though?

(CNN)  Dylan Farrow, the adopted daughter of Mia Farrow and Woody Allen, is asking why the director has not suffered the same fate as other powerful men in Hollywood accused of sexual misconduct.

 I am no fan of the federal liberals but this must be a new low for getting tossed out of your job. Hehr was forced to resign as Minister earlier today

 

"I was told to avoid being in [an] elevator with Kent Hehr. He would make comments. He would make you feel unsafe," said Ms. Raworth. "He is now a federal cabinet minister. In the government of a man who claims to believe in gender equality. So let's test that @JustinTrudeau. I'm not alone in my experience and I know so many women have experienced this. So get rid of him."

Interesting; he used to work at  the law firm that is now known as Dentons--the same firm that worked for Jian Ghomeshi.

I met Rich Little in the men's room at the Conference Centre during a David Foster Dinner. Also Gorde Howe.

The Grammy's took a major ratings hit this year. I guess people are losing interest in millionaire musicians virtue signalling about sexual abuse and politics ...while women in scantily clad dresses dance on stage, men who write about sexually abusing women present awards ...and all before a crowd of people who it turns out #knewallalong.

Well said.

 

The Grammys took a ratings hit because people want to hear great, fell-good music.  Instead they delivered a mess of WTF.  Gaga, Pink, U2 and even Bruno Mars did all the wrong songs.

[Cassidy]

The Grammys are more out of touch in 2018 than they've ever been.

 

• Complete lack of women nominees and winners?
• Lenoard Cohen for Best Rock Album? (I like Cohen ... but please ... "best rock album" - how out of touch can you get?)
• 2018 was a year that Rap ruled airwaves and minds, solidly established in the white middle class ... and yet Bruno Mars wins most categories? ... Mars is OK, but his music is social pablum compared to Kendrick Lamar and the like.

 

Nobody takes the Grammys seriously, the abysmal audience numbers this year reflect that fact.

"Best Spoken Word" perhaps?

[VicHockeyFan]

To be fair, based on album sales, it was Ed Sheeran's year.  And Pink, Harry Styles, Sam Smith, Take That, Noel Gallagher, Michael Buble, Taylor Swift, George Micheal, Adele and Bruno Mars all outsold Kendrick Lamar.
