Gee, why am I not surprised at this? Silly me for trying in the first place.
That's cheesy ad hominem comment. You've got no sympathy for the guy, it's always the male's fault in every situation, no matter what.
Silly you for not being able to muster an argument based on anything but sympathy for the poor, naive girls.
Silly you for not having any sympathy for an obviously troubled guy.
Ha! Spoken by the master of ad hominem attacks, and the purveyor of eminently predictable misogyny.
Silly me for expecting anything other than a response pretending to any knowledge of me whatsoever, much less how I think in "every situation." Balderdash.
Further, I never called them "poor naive girls." You can put words in my mouth all day long, sir, but it doesn't make them real or true.
Women, just like men, don't have to be naive, young, inexperienced, or anything else to be made extremely uncomfortable by the actions of a sexually deviant individual. He chose to foist his particular perversion into their lives, whether or not his desires were consummated -- and just because he asked, however sweetly, doesn't make the situation any less strange or disturbing, very possibly to almost anyone except perhaps yourself.
Whether or not I or anyone else has a modicum of sympathy for an off-kilter, troubled individual does not in any way change the fact that his action was disturbing to OTHERS, and he had no right to subject OTHERS to his weirdness, but took advantage of his power and status to do so anyway.
Your defending this man is your privilege, but in my opinion, as I indicated in the beginning, you're missing a couple of big pieces, and maybe that's in more ways than one.
The true weirdness is that these bimbos STAYED IN THE ROOM after he asked them if it was okay. If they were offended by the request or even the idea, they could have left. But no, in your blinkered eyes its his fault for being weird. THEY COULD HAVE LEFT BUT THEY STAYED, nothing weird about that, huh?
You're just like some coddled brat that wants a "safe place" from all the offensive slings and arrows of life. Grow up.
