Breaking Point?

In mid-October 2017 as reports come
out that Hollywood Movie Maker
Harvey Weinstein has
sexually harrassed women 
for decades, 82 women
break annonymity to say "me too."

The "Mad Men" TV series 
shows the "boys will be boys"
corporate setting where sexaul 
harrassment is seen as the norm.

In my 12 step meeting,  over seven 
people talk about how they too were
sexually harrassed by bosses.  
I have never heard so many share
about these things -  the national
consciense has been pricked,
the trauma of many has
been stirred.

A friend tells me when as a 
Screen Actors Guild representative,
in the early 1980's shares how
Director James Toback asked if she
wanted to be in a movie for a 
sexual favor - in which she responded,
"No thanks, I already have a job."

Weintein  (82)
Toback  (200)
Bill Cosby (41)
Fox News Roger Ailes 
and Bill O'Reilly.
Say it aint so
Mark Halpern?!?!

Perhaps 2017 is the year
when sexual harrasment will
be taken seriously in America.

Anita Hill testified in 
October of 1991 (26 years earlier)
in the the Supreme Court vetting
of Clarence Thomas, 
testifying to harrasment of the 
sexual kind.

There will probably be
no real action taken
by the present administration
until the departure of 
President "Pussy-grabber."
