Women are not as divided on #MeToo as it may seem

Vox and Morning Consult conducted a survey to discover how women of all ages feel about the #MeToo movement.
Paybacksays...

When #metoo first gained ground, I was in the camp of "Matt Damonism", trying to find reasonable grounds. Saying Ansari's bad date shouldn't be likened to rape, etc. etc.

Now though... maybe we need some "sacrificial lambs" to get the real douchebags onside. Fear is an awesome motivator and causes lovely attention focus. The best way to avoid going "over the line" is to not go anywhere near it. If you don't know where it is, distance is your only safe choice.

Nooooooo.
Wanting to sacrifice a few lambs on the altar of revenge proves it's not about fairness or equality, it's about bitterness, payback, and division. That loses far more people than it gains, and creates a reason to fight against #metoo. Fight that desire, please.

The best way to avoid going over the line is clearly defining where that line is, for everyone. Discuss it, don't just blindly cross it to everyone's detriment.
Sexual line crossing is what the movement is fighting, if it turns to line crossing itself, it's useless except as a tool to divide us.

Btw...men get harassed and raped by women too. #metoo
