The internet never forgets.

If I walked up to literally any female in any situation this would not be okay...

u8eR · 2017-12-01T04:50:14+00:00

OK, I have a question. Was it made clear to the guy what the deal was before they went on camera? He may have known, and consented before they started filming.

Quintrell · 2017-12-01T09:03:14+00:00

This is a shitty comparison. This was a staged bit. Lauer was just an egomaniac with unchecked power to hold leverage over women. No point in dragging Laurer into this sub, as his behavior isn't defensible.

The title of your post does not say anything about its subject. This forces people to click and read before they can decide whether they are interested.

If everyone did this, the subreddit would become unusable.

So please don't do it. Take the time to describe your link, and save the time of hundreds of other people.

In future, such posts may be removed.

When making a title, it's best to assume the reader doesn't know what you're talking about - but don't go overboard with every detail. Then check if there are any words you can cut out without losing any important information.

Feminist hypocrisy. It is very real, and you will see it everywhere if you just open your eyes.

A modern woman basically follows one mantra; "Rules for thee, none for me."

Double standards..... such a lovely world this has turned into. Seems like it has been a shit show since the late 00's. I wish I could go back in time to the good old days.

banana00097 · 2017-12-01T13:16:18+00:00

this is what we should be talking about. sexual harassment can go both ways. women are just as likely to do it as men. the thing is no matter what happens the male is usually held accountable

GlabrousGrizzly · 2017-12-01T13:26:10+00:00

I wonder what Garrison Keillor thinks of this double standard. He’s probably a better example in this case, considering Lauer seems to be kind of a scumbag.

Dalinair · 2017-12-01T12:59:38+00:00

I'd have loved it if that guy getting fondled reached out and grabbed her tits

regularguy98b · 2017-12-01T07:51:15+00:00

Also don't forget it's only sexual harassment when the guy is ugly

meanwhileinvermont · 2017-12-01T13:20:34+00:00

Not sure this is QUITE the same although I appreciate the sentiment.

Here’s a video, this looks entirely consensual to me.

PM_ME_YOUR_YURT · 2017-12-01T17:12:54+00:00

I think it’s about consent though, right?

BernieSandersgirl101 · 2017-12-01T21:44:32+00:00

The man looks very uncomfortable. They should have been fired.

JPOG · 2017-12-01T14:19:42+00:00

Hoda and Kathy Lee also haven’t been accused of rape nor do neither of them have an electronic lock on their dressing room. Read Lauer’s statement, he admits to a lot of it.

This is gross, yes but it is not a proper comparison.

ricky251294 · 2017-12-01T12:28:16+00:00

The difference was consent

pb568 · 2017-12-01T14:43:45+00:00

The backlash or the enevitbale reverse swing of this horseshit is going to be legendary. Enjoy your day now you twats.

justinizsocool · 2017-12-01T16:22:44+00:00

Kathie lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb also do this thing called spanky Tuesday, where they spank everyone every Tuesday.

SillyAmerican · 2017-12-01T18:12:17+00:00

Sexual Harrasment is about the way it makes the victim feel. if homeboy didn’t care that these women were touching him then it’s not sexual harassment.

docious · 2017-12-01T20:09:40+00:00

The question is if it was consensual

VirtualKeenu · 2017-12-02T01:01:11+00:00

There's such a thing as consent. Are all porn actress victims of rape?

Stuntman119 · 2017-12-01T07:51:27+00:00

WheRE is tHe cOntEXt

Wasuremaru · 2017-12-01T13:39:24+00:00

Now let's be fair: touching a man's pecs is different from touching a woman's breasts. Not saying their behavior is acceptable, just that calling it fondling may be overstating things a tad.

chewyflex · 2017-12-01T13:37:05+00:00

Generally this is OK yeah.

2017-12-01T14:54:29+00:00

Ok look. I’m obviously not defending Lauer, but I don’t know if this is a comparison. What is the context of this picture? Was the athlete ok with it?

Yes, there are double standards for me that we have to stand against, but I’m not certain this photo is an example of it.

Anyone have more info in the video this was taken from?

CeeZees · 2017-12-01T13:21:55+00:00

To be fair; Matt Lauer locked somebody in his office and raped them into unconsciousness.

Drclaw411 · 2017-12-01T12:45:49+00:00

Downvote away.

This isn’t the same thing because the picture on the bottom was a staged comedy bit.

deville05 · 2017-12-01T13:15:22+00:00

Yeah but this argument makes it seem like men and women are the same and are equal. Physical strength and the ability to be violent and overpowering and feelings of threat and not to mention supply and demand of pussy vs dick is all the same. Sexual harassment has to be felt as well. It is up to the guy to raise his voice and object to what is going on with him. If he isnt feeling harassed.. maybe you shouldn't tell him.what he should feel. Men don't build muscle to not get that attention from women.
