Z,For sure you make some good points here.I was only responding to you assertion that what Doug said regarding consensual sex was incorrect. Workplace sex between boss and subordinate is without a doubt so fraught with danger that most people just assume that sexual harassment plays a roll.But think about it can you imagine a scenario where it wasn't? Boy meets girl nature takes it's course.Man and woman want sex without conditions.It can and does happen.I think the overwhelming evidence is that what happened here. <<Did all interns receive the same level of assistance in the job search >>I assume you are talking about Vernon Jordan's help [at BC's behest].Ok correct me if i'm wrong here.The job help was not a govt.job,no?This was not a case of a job opened up in the govt.and BC by passed other interns to give it to Monica.BC may legitimately help Monica to get a job in the private sector.It matters not if they are relating to one another, workplace or no.Why is this a problem? He is in no way obligated to any intern to help them get work.He may if he so chooses help a lover in the manner that he did.[inlisting the help of a personal friend]Thus I would say that your comment <<Do feminists support the idea of giving the boss a bj for promotion>> really doesn't carry much weight.Let me ask you in light of what we know. Do you really believe that monica was in this for promotions?
About PJ not much can be said we have differing opinions.
I have said all along that BC lied in this case and under oath .As some long time readers of this and other threads know I believe that these questions should never have been asked in the first place. I have relegated his crimes to the likes of jay walking not impeachable offences .
