Flummoxed

I am flummoxed by the story above but I do not know why I am. How long has humanity been around? Quoting The Universe Today:  "While our ancestors have been around for about six million years, the modern form of humans only evolved about 200,000 years ago." Men worldwide for thousands of years have had physical and spousal power over women. The physical strength of women is hampered by their biological and physiological construct. Thousands of years of evolutionary construction of the sex that bears the toll of obstetrically having children has seen to it, however, to make woman internally stronger then men. We know women usually live longer but evolution has given men stronger muscular strength, narrower hips and wider more muscular chests with much stronger arms. Maybe this was done to hunt or build things for survival but in our time now men can use their advantage of physical strength to hunt and even hurt women.

Still, in a contemporary sense, I cannot, for the life of me, understand how men can force themselves on a woman who does not want them, rejects them and says no. If someone says no to their ovations men should run embarrassed head lowered for the nearest exit. Now that sexual harassment may cost men of power barrels of money, loss of position and ruination of their lives not to mention their marriages perhaps now, finally, in this nation men (often old and unattractive to young women but young men's onslaughts as well too) will require reciprocal desire from the person they approach before they think about violating them simply to please themselves.

Every time I watch the news and another man like Cosby, O'Reilly, the living Roger Ailes, Weinstein, now Halperin, our obnoxious sexual predator Trump accused of sexual misconduct and O'Reilly blaming -- not kidding -- God I feel like I need to either throw up or take a shower and wash my brain of each cerebral synapse that thinks about the sex acts that occurred between these women and  the obnoxious men who assault them.

NOT ANYMORE
