Does sexual harassment happen as much among non-celebrities as it seems to happen among celebrities? Honestly, I'm kind of shocked by all if this. I thought only rude, coarse, low-life construction worker type men acted like this. How naive I was.

Its not about men but power…..people with power use it to get what they want no matter how inappropriate and illegal…


Also America's obsession with money does not help. It is all about making $….People exploit and take advantage of this sad reality…

Yes, that's the joke.

This is not about points. This is about awareness. If you sense something, say something.

The Metropolitan Opera suspended James Levine, its revered conductor and former music director, on Sunday after three men came forward with accusations that Mr. Levine sexually abused them decades ago, when the men were teenagers.

I have no idea who that is, but just by looking at him, I could tell you he is a pervy weirdo.

Just saw an ad on FB that Bob Saget is performing in Berkeley this weekend, but before I knew it was an ad, I thought he was the next to go down.  Upon seeing it was just an ad, I though, "how is he not on Julian's list?  Or Uncle Joey for that matter?"

For Seacrest, would it be groping other men, or groping women?

I wish Americans could draw a distinction between pedophiles and rapists and people who cop a feel but apparently its all the same now…arguably copping a feel, or taking an inappropriate picture is a worse offense judging by the consequences…

Feeling sad and bitter…
