The women accusing Herman Cain..

Edited on Tue Nov-08-11 03:50 AM by vaberella
I have a problem with the one that came out publicly. I don't like the idea of blaming the victim...but when this victim made her statement I was a bit appalled. Rather than saying..."No." or saying that she said "No." Instead she says...that she told him, as he brought her head down to his crotch..."Woooh...what are you doing? You know I have a boyfriend." <---What?!

If a man had his hand in my crotch and putting my head down to give him head...I would not be saying, "You know I have a boyfriend." I would be so disgusted that someone did this and I would, if not report him...scream No and twist his penis with my hands. There is no "I have a boyfriend."

Something about that statement seems unlikely for me. I've been in dangerously similar situations---not with a boss but a former male friend. Fisticuffs and yells of No was more common than..."I have a boyfriend." Why would that statement stop someone.

I hate sexual harassment and if true...the man deserves to fry. Although it seems Repubs don't care about that. However the statement above by the woman irritates the hell out of me.

*Thanks to Skittles for suggesting changing the title.*
