My Parents Are Older, And They Lead A Somewhat Sheltered Life. It Was Difficult To Talk With Them About Things That Were Embarrassing To Me, And That I Had Never Spoken To Them About

In July Of 1983, I Left Washington, Dc Area And Have Had Minimal Contact With Judge Clarence Thomas Since

Many Women Are Harassed, One In Three Between The Ages Of 18 And 34, By One Poll. And We Need To Figure Out If, In Fact, We Are Going To Enable Them To Come Forward With Their Complaints, As Opposed To Enabling Harassers And Abusers To Continue Their Behavior.

I Resent The Idea That People Would Blame The Messenger For The Message, Rather Than Looking At The Content Of The Message Itself.

Most Women Who Are Harassed Don't Come Forward, They Don't Complain Because They're Skeptical Of The Process, Or They Don't Think Anything Is Going To Come Of It If They Are Found To Have Been Harassed. We Know From Some Very Public Cases That Sexual Assault Isn't Always Punished Even By The Courts In The Way That They Should Be. So, We Have Got To Figure Out, How Are We Going To Embed Women's Experiences In The Processes, So That They Trust The Processes, That There Are Fair Investigations That Get To The Truth, And Then There Is Appropriate Punishment When Abuse Occurs?
