Gloria Steinem's announced One Free Grope Policy for WJC in 1998
New world encyclopeiae ^ | 10-13-16 | Gloria Steinem

Posted on 10/13/2016 2:59:47 PM PDT by InvisibleChurch

In a 1998 press interview, Steinem weighed in on the Clinton impeachment hearings when asked whether President Bill Clinton should be impeached for lying under oath, she was quoted as saying, "Clinton should be censured for lying under oath about Lewinsky in the Paula Jones deposition, perhaps also for stupidity in answering at all." In a March 22, 1998 Op/Ed piece in the New York Times, she effectively gave support to the notion that a man may: (1) uninvited, open-mouth kiss a woman; (2) uninvited, fondle a woman's breast; and (3) uninvited, take a woman's hand and place it on the man's genitals; and as long as the man retreats once the woman says "no" that this does not constitute sexual harassment. This has become known in the popular culture as the "One Free Grope" Theory. The Op/Ed piece was written in an attempt to defend then President Clinton against allegations of sexual impropriety that had been made by White House volunteer Kathleen Willey.

Another blast from the past.

I was looking for that to post and could not find it.

Figured that it had been stuffed down the memory hole and was gone for good..

Pretty amazing, looking back

Even more amazing that the whole insanity of the Clinton's bizarre world soap opera drama on the world stage is repeating itself even before the Clintons are elected back into the White House - and people are still willing to vote these two partners in crime back into the Presidency.

Even more amazing is that, if you believe the polls ( I don't) , they have 50% of the vote even after all the damage they have done to the country and all the trauma they have put us through because Bill Clinton was elected on 42% of the vote and never received 50% in his re election.

The world must have changed a lot in the last 20 years.

Then again, Hillary could not pull enough votes in the primary to beat Bernie Sanders and almost lost the Primary despite having a huge Super Delegate advantage.

And still another liberal innovation....Al Gore gave us “carbon credits”, now Bill Clinton brings us “GROPE CREDITS”, good for one grope of the female of your choice.

The small print: “This credit may lead to genital exposure, bitten lips, and even rape. Apply ice to affected area.

I’ve been saying that NOW killed this as an issue in the 90s when they said the first grope is free.

Also notice all of the internet silence in America and in the media over Islamist “refugees” groping Western women...
