You only see the ones where the woman is unhappy and sues. The facts run the gamut of human behavior, which is wide indeed. To say that the woman is unhappy is in a very general sense true. Why she is unhappy is a different question. Often the advances are unwanted and offensive, but she gives in because of fear of losing a job or other economic reasons. Those are the tough ones to defend. Other times, the woman is a true willing participant in it for the fun, is ditched, and realizes she can sue if it is an employment situation. Other times, the woman is having multiple affairs with co-workers, one of whom happens to be a boss. There is no one single factual template. In the May/December situations, like Kerry's, the male's superior power and authority is generally the attraction to the younger woman, with the goodies that are implicitly or explicitly promised being the male's bait. It's mostly sleazy. Very hard on the young woman when she is inevitably dumped with only a few of the promised goodies getting delivered.
