I found it very interesting today that neither Jenny nor Maria had anything nice to say about Matt today and all but threw him under the bus. Yet Howard and Donnie D both sang his praises!
I think men just don't get it.

Because the two men that you mentioned have most definitely participated in such shenanigans. The old televised Stern show was the most misogynistic thing ever. That is how I went to wuwt. I despise stern

You think so?!? Interesting to hear a man say that, but I most certainly agree.
I've never been a fan of Stern either, just slim pickings these days and I knew the two were friends, so I was curious what he'd say.
I am curious to see how this rolls through the South. You noticed anything at your workplace. The guys quivering? Lost deep in thought thinking back over their lives?

I seem to be the only one who has noticed this trend. I work in a repair shop, so the atmosphere is very testosterone driven. In fact, a majority of the men that I work with generally fit the profile of the guys who are getting busted. There are 4 women who are involved hand in hand with us. And, they foolishly seem to relish the attention. I am pretty much the only one who keeps it all business. (Not that any of them would be interested in the first place)

Unfortunately, I am often the target of ridicule for not chasing the women involved. My sexuality is often called into question because I do not comment, fondle, or even show interest. Which I find humorous due to the fact that I have been married forever, and that I am the biggest, burliest knuckle dragger in there.

Karma, I completely get your situation. I work with mostly men. I actually have a notebook I've kept of every touch and some statements made to me. I don't mind joking but sometimes its just too far. I am strictly business and have become labeled the company bitch, etc. It sucks. Everything from making comments about whether or not I'm wearing make up to actual physical touch. I could give in and joke and play but I don't its not me. I am very quiet and shy AND I'M MARRIED so there's that.

It is interesting how Lori has been quiet on social media as of late. I wonder if she experienced anything first hand with Matt.

Taylor said she has know for a long time and there are ALOT of woman Matt has Harassed. Well its all coming out now and he is a freaky little fucker!!

I thought Lori shut down the conversation alluding to ML being shady because she didn't give it any credence-that she thought ML was a great guy. Did I get that wrong?

micdrop · 11/30/2017 9:48 am

Lydia, I can't remember...I feel like maybe you're right. I know Lori def shut it down quickly.

From what I have read he seemed to target interns and bookers...sounds like people that thought their career would fail if they didn't give in. Lori seems to have her own thing going with Good Housekeeping so probably didn't fit his "target"
Does that make sense?

Wow, is he really? I haven't looked into this much- guess I better go read some more on what he did. What an asshole.

micdrop · 11/30/2017 10:27 am

MrsGreen, you're probably spot on.

I was thinking that this morning...

piopio12 · 11/30/2017 11:18 am

GMA did a story about it this morning. Seems like he was a horrible dude.

Karma · 11/30/2017 1:08 pm

Russell Simmons just stepped down from his own companies due to accusations of sexual misconduct.

Who is next

Can we not just make a list of male owned companies? Might be easier

He sure is- I did some Googling about it all this morning and, wow. Douche central. It went beyond sexual harassment and into sexual assault. Locked a woman in his office and forced sex on her- bent her over an f'in chair in his office and she passed out during the whole thing and to have medical response. As Rob would say "He's a monster. How dare you?"

Why am I so shocked? Because hes better looking than the other monsters...?
I'll never understand anyone that craves power so much that they allow their primitive instincts
to take over like this. Are we at the point that we figure all men do this, we just dont know about it? So many thoughts, so many feelings. Its crazy!
And Damn, that's a horrible story.

You jest, but it looks as if this is the direction that we are headed.

Congressman joe Barton to retire at the end of this term due to sexual misconduct.

And, John Conyers is being asked to step down by the Democratic Party for the same allegations.

A two for one.......this is only the beginning

* tucks bait and tackle between legs in a somewhat “silence of the lambs” kind of way.
* says nothing at work relating to females
* has fashioned a tin foil hat in hopes of no one being able to read my mind

Ok, fingers crossed, I may be safe now

Oh Karma...where have you been all of our lives? Are you SURE you’re not Kenny? 😂😂😂

Karma · 12/01/2017 10:08 am

Kenny is the man......I could not live up to his legend.

micdrop · 12/01/2017 10:29 am

I would LOVE for Kenny to be on here! That would be amazing!
