Okay, do you want one about office doors being open, prevention of being accused of sexual assault to finish off, or do you want one that says it's so tiring how many women act like they are the victim when they are the ones who have all the rights?

Headline.

My office door is open when I speak to a woman and there is a third person present.

This is not negotiable.

Any sensitive matters may be communicated to me through email or over the telephone.

There's a post on a legal advice subreddit at the moment from a woman who is distraught that her manager has a boundary.

His rule is simple.

He refuses to meet with a woman alone.

I don't imagine I need to explain why a rational man would decide to demand a third party be present for any direct correspondence with women.

After women have decided to create a social climate of fire first, ask questions later, for any man even accused of sexual misconduct, no matter how flimsy the evidence, now they are distraught and confused as to why a man might want to protect himself.

Of course, the women in the comment section provided helpful advice, including report him to this advisory organization or report him to this other advisory organization.

Because apparently men are now supposed to tread like we're walking on broken glass around women, cross the street away from them to assure they never feel threatened and stare at our shoes when a woman addresses us.

But when a man decides to protect himself, they absolutely must go full Karen.

If the genders were reversed, this would be an entirely different discussion to them, of course.

A female manager wants another woman present when speaking to men.

This is why we choose the bear.

Honestly, I'm glad that more men are catching on.

Right, so I would say there actually isn't a social climate of fire first, ask questions later, because there are men who have multiple accusations of sexual assault, sexual misconduct, rape, physical violence, domestic abuse.

All these different allegations are floating around a lot of men, particularly in the entertainment industry.

I'm thinking of a few open secrets that we all fucking know about in this industry.
