I'm not pretending to be judge and jury, just a human being who has opinions when I read or hear about things. Not all situations are as cut and dried as "He was the CEO, she was an underling and there was some rule against it."

Also, I wasn't solely thinking of cases where I am a third party observer.

I'm a woman. I've found myself at times the subject of male interest where there was a power imbalance. Some men are assholes and I have no sympathy for their shit. In other cases, it's more complicated than that.

And I was defending the existence of such rules, so I have no idea why you are criticizing my remark.

I wish you had followed the guidelines and taken the most charitable reading of what I said.

I, too, defended the existence of the rules. Not only was I not criticizing your remark, but I was supporting the existence of the remark, as it's a form of discussion that helps raise awareness of the necessity of the rules.
