THREAD:
If a man had come forward charging Kavanaugh of trying to rob him in a dark alley while another man watched would anyone be saying “boys will be boys”? Would we care about his age? (1)
Would it matter whether this was a one-time incident or part of a “pattern”? Would we need other accusers to come forward before we take the one accuser seriously? (2)
Would his later “unblemished record” relieve the Senate of the need to investigate further? (3)
Would they let the alleged man-who-watched refuse to testify? (4)
Simone DeBeauvoir was right.
Women are—continue to be—“Other.”
(#5 and that’s all.....for now.)
