If there is any good to come out of this, it may be the actions quoted below.

Quote:
Some structural reforms have taken root in the past year. Unions have successfully backed legislation to protect entertainment industry employees in California and hotel housekeepers and janitors in Chicago. State legislatures have enacted 17 bills designed to curb bad behavior; an additional 12 bills are pending, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.

Contracts that set the terms of employment and of financial transactions are now more likely to establish consequences for sexual harassment or other bad behavior. Awareness of the problem has prompted even employers such as the Milwaukee County library system to adopt education and prevention campaigns.
NPR covered the hotel housekeepers thing today, apparently many of them are sexually assaulted and the women have a difficult time getting management and the police to react.

The part of "it comes with the job" is going to be no more.

The opening article has the most citations of any non-technical research paper I have ever seen.

Probably as many words as the article.

Pound me too

Better than:
Pound Me Again

I guess.
