Rob, I'm just floored by your statement that women (you've known??) have worked in places where they have to expect and have put up with being groped.
I have never heard a woman ever say she worked in such an environment, so WTF? Am I really supposed to believe this? Human resources doesn't exist in the UK? No labour laws? No criminal laws? What??? Or were you just referencing the Elizabethan era of a sudden?

I believe it does and will always happen in small numbers as will other crimes but I’m open minded to changing my viewpoint when proved wrong. There’s no shortage of very public claims with detailed accounts so there’s no argument to suggest the evidence is kept privately. So please provide links to emails, phone transcriptions, audio, video containing these crimes/inappropriate behaviour.
Like I said it’s easy to obtain so there must be an abundance of it if the situation is as claimed. How hard is it to put a dictaphone in your pocket to record an inappropriate conversation. If there’s anything other than an abundance of strong evidence publicly available just like the claims themselves, then there’s really nothing further to say.

As a side note, -- with all this "men vs women" theme, one might wonder where do the transgender folk belong, on which side of the Blame Fence?
It's simple really, -- a crime reported, it needs to be investigated and either dismissed or prosecuted -- just like what society tries to do with any other crime. I don't get that makes this any more special that yer regular, run-of-the-mill murder or robbery... (aside from it currently being a hot topic in the news and some people jumping on it solely because of that...?)

This.
I didn't describe any woman of having suspect motives. You are just playing games again.

I understand it might make you uncomfortable to believe it, or that it doesn't fit into your world view, or at least your "online" world view. I could draw on my time working in a Crown Court too.
Or you could spend some time with my wife's team in the local police. Sexual assault, domestic violence, sex trafficking. It would be interesting to see accusations of "making it all up" made directly to alleged victims.
It's interesting, certain groups here in the UK take a similar line on "witch hunts" and the like, until it came to the Rotherham et al cases. I wonder why that was?
