if he made sexual innuendos or inappropriate comments - I’d like to ask - Who Hasn’t?I haven't. I've been in the workplace for decades -- in business and government -- and I never did it once. And I have many, many co-workers who I am quite confident also never did it either.
Yes when I was younger I shared off-color sexual jokes with my peers. But never in a workplace situation in the presence of women. I have ALWAYS respected women in the workplace and almost every man I know was the same way, even those who believed that a woman's place is in the home.
Rudeness towards woman is an anomaly in the workplace, at least in my experience, and not the rule, despite what the hags and witches of NOW would have you believe.
When was the last time YOU were accused of sexual harassment or sexually inappropriate behavior of any kind?
I can answer with absolute certainty for me: never.
Most Americans are CIVIL to one another and to say otherwise is bull sh*t.
I believe you and thankfully the majority of men and women follow your example.
However, there are men who abuse their positions of power and women who seek advancement through sexual favors or, seek attention and compensation for careless comments/jokes/compliments/conversations - when they were not directly involved - just offended.
During my 40+ years in entry level jobs and positions of authority, with several large and small companies; I have witnessed colleagues who caused trouble, were vindictive, manipulative, immature, over worked, underpaid, envious, jealous, fearful, rude, obnoxious, grudge carriers and those who, thankfully, were job-focused, helpful, forgiving and forgetful.
I guess I should have said - who wouldn’t have been accused with hyper-sensitive feminists looking for offense in the 1990s.
A picture on your desk of you with your wife at the beach would be considered a Hostile Workplace.
Some women flirt and when it is reciprocated or commented on they scream harassment. Less nowadays but in the 1990s?
I am happy for you that you have always been appropriate and respectful and careful - good on ya.
Anonymous sources, accusations and hearsay are NOT proof of anything.
Innocent until proven guilty is the standard and so far all we have been given is a whole lot of accusation and NO facts.
it is not Cain's job to prove the slanderous accusations false. It is the accusers job to prove them true and so far they have offered NOTHING but accusations and rumor.
