The most remarkable thing about the current tide of sexual assault and harassment accusations is not their number. If every woman in America started talking about the things that happen during the course of an ordinary female life, it would never end. Nor is it the power of the men involved; history instructs us that for countless men, the ability to possess women sexually is not a spoil of power; it’s the point of power. What’s remarkable is that these women are being believed.
Most of them don’t have police reports or witnesses or physical evidence; many of them are recounting events that transpired years—sometimes decades—ago. In some cases, their accusations are validated by a vague, carefully couched quasi-admission of guilt; in others they are met with outright denial. It doesn’t matter. We believe them. Moreover, we have finally come to some kind of national consensus about the workplace; it naturally fosters a level of romance and flirtation, but the line between those impulses and the sexual predation of a boss is clear.
Believing women about assault—even if they lack the means to prove their accounts—as well as an understanding that female employees don’t constitute part of a male boss’s benefits package, were the galvanizing consequences of Anita Hill’s historic allegations against Clarence Thomas in 1991.

Jim Noble gives the details a couple of posts above. The larger point (as it always is with liberals), its not about women (or blacks, or gays, or whales), its about political power.
And this is why MGTOW, The Red Pill, and MRA exist. 3rd wave feminism has criminalized heterosexual relationships.
Enjoy the decline feminists. Generation Z and later millenials are on to your games and simply won’t play. How are you going to extract cash and prizes from someone that refuses to play a rigged game?
Your previous attendance was just a courtesy, now they can let you know how they really feel...
