    No one said that.

    I couldn't possibly say if "the huge majority of women who've told their stories are telling the truth" because I am not privy to the intricacies of the accusations (neither are you, my dear).

    .

    Yes you could! Maybe you don't want to believe that the huge majority are telling the truth?
    .

    Nope. Hopefully you're never tasked with jury duty.

    Talk to your family? Your sisters? Listen to them, the truth is shocking.

    I have done that and posted as much here. Wasn't good enough for you. You only want the right answers. Your right answers.

    I agree men harass men men harass women and that should be stamped on and I say everyone here is in agreement. However you also pointed out women harass men and presumably women harass women while they are not in the same number why are they less important. When talking about harassment etc should we not talk in relation to everyone and educate everyone. Would you not agree 1 person been harrased is 2 much

    Absolutely one person being harrassed is too much. But harassers are overwhelmingly Male. Part of the problem is people dismissing metoo experiences (if they’re even believed) as random ****ty behaviour that comes from a ****ty personality that is just as likely to be found in a woman than in a man. This is false and isn’t helping address the problem. It just sweeps it under the rug.

    Yea ok. I'm just going to put you on the ignore list as you are obviously a troll. I reported a few of your comments where you completely lied about what others have said but no action has been taking. All you have posted in this thread is drivel.

    Well if you agree with the posts that are saying that women aren't to be believed then put me on ignore. Thanks.

    Right but given that the vast vast vast majority of metoo posts are made on twitter and not through this nonprofit it’s pretty safe to say that metoo has nothing to do with that nonprofit.

    Now whether a random non profit tries to piggyback on metoo is completely irrelevant to the nature, goals, or general thrust of the movement.

    Yeah, you are having an absolute laugh if you think I'm trawling through the several dozen (at least), over-the-top, toxic drivel posts you've posted in this thread.

    Reading your posts once is more than enough, thank you.

    :D Another one put back in their place.

    Jesus imagine her in the deliberations.

    ''Well I believe this woman because women are abused by men all the time. We need to stand together and back this brave woman.''

    ''Ehm, the guy she's accusing wasn't in the country at the time.''

    Why do you say it every few pages only to come back a few hours later? Is it because you're an absolute liar and can't keep your word and like making stuff up like some of the the #MeToo brigade? Is that why?

    :D Here's the meltdown you were talking about, except you're having it!

    You are absolutely mental.

    Here it is again, pointing out facts makes you mental!

    Well Holy God. Just because you say it's happened doesn't necessarily make it so!

    You'd do well to apply that ethos to numerous aspects of your life.

    The majority of the metoo cases would not go in front of a jury. It's a case of believing that thousands upon thousands of women are not all lying or believing that they are all lying, it's that simple really.
    It's highlighting a major problem that needs to be tackled. Let's do that instead of doubting women!

    No, no...did you not read what our feminist friend said earlier. All us MALE posters here are on the side of rapists and scumbags. You know, our pals.

    You may not realise it or fooled yourself into thinking different but you're on the same side as the rapists and scumbags. Instead of supporting women and trying to change things for the better, you have attacked them, questioned their stories and supported those who've being involved in questionable behaviour.

    I ignore most of your posts. Speaking of which, I'm getting worried about you. You are getting very upset about all this. It's an online forum, you should relax. For this reason and because your posts are loopy, I'm putting you on ignore. Ciao. :D

    Fingers in the ear because I'm engaging you directly. You asked us to talk to our sisters. I did. Provided transcript of same. You run off. Rattled. Pathetic debater.

    My posts are loopy! Ha. God love that cat you live alone with is all I can say. Hope it's female at least, for its own sake.

    So I didn't say that then. Thanks for proving me correct.
    I said if you doubt women, attack them and support those who've been involved in questionable behaviour you're on the same side as rapists and scumbags. Just like it says in that posted you've most helpfully quoted. :D

    Righhhhtttttt.

    So as I said, thousands of women have shared their story online and thousands have off line.

    I hope you read all the post, you're going to end up red faced like omack if not.

    You said that I made posts with man-hating involved. You were lying. ;)

    I'm reporting the posts for constantly attempting to derail the thread and trying to provoke other posters with half truths and twisting their words.

    It's for the poor creatures own good.

    Showing up liars and women haters is a good thing. I believe the mods agree.
