I guess I was too general or not general enough? I guess what I mean is "people" not specific, more like...society? Or maybe to go out on a limb patriarchy? Its so hard to explain myself. There is a subset of women who are really angry and make it really different to hear their message(which they say is about empowering women) because they are so angry. Then there are women who one day decide they have had enough with the harassment they have at work and report it-only to have coworkers (male) act like they are just another bitter angry woman who is upset she didnt get a promotion or something like that. There is a situation here in NJ with our new Governer. One of his staffers or campaign workers was raped during the campaign. She decided to talk to the campaign heads, and then when that didnt work she went up the chain. She chose not to report it I think because of the sensitive nature of it and because she was maybe protecting the campaign. Turns out that her reports never made it past the first people, the Governer was never told and the guy who did it received a high level promotion in the Governers's staff. She talked to the police and they found her story credible and she has moved forward. Now the ***** hit the fan and its public. Yesterday the news stated she had filed a notice that she was going to sue. After that rumors and crap going around are making her out to be this bitter, angry, ungrateful woman. Ignoring the fact that she kept quiet and didnt even involve the police(i personally would have started with them). Ignoring the fact that she tried going through the chain of command, didnt immediately lawyer up, tried to deal with it behind the scenes. I am not saying she should have gone that way but after all that only now are people treating her like crap. So when I said "people " it was more of a general label, but this is just one example of what I was trying to infer.
