Sexual harassment, sexual assault and rape have been referred to as surgery’s open secret.
There is an untold story of women being fondled inside their scrubs, of male surgeons wiping their brow on their breasts and men rubbing erections against female staff. Some have been offered career opportunities for sex.
The analysis - by the University of Exeter, the University of Surrey and the Working Party on Sexual Misconduct in Surgery - has been shared exclusively with BBC News.
Nearly two-thirds of women surgeons that responded to the researchers said they had been the target of sexual harassment and a third had been sexually assaulted by colleagues in the past five years.
Women say they fear reporting incidents will damage their careers and they lack confidence the NHS will take action.
Would you do the same for different races or religions?
“Yes, but essentially saying “not all muslims” allows muslims to continue to ignore and exclude themselves from the problem, making them actively a part of the problem.”
Of course not, those aren’t on the list of approved groups to generalise.
Lmfao at you thinking you “got me”… 🤣🤣
If the discussion was about a situation where a power imbalance clearly and obviously benefitted Muslims, then yes (except there isn’t a global problem with the power imbalance favouring Muslims on anywhere the same scale as there is for men).
It really isn’t difficult once you take your head out of your ass.
Or you can continue to make up as many strawmen and false equivalencies as you like to try and derail the conversation, but all that achieves is you showing your ass as being part of the problem, knowingly now, because you’ve been provided with information that should make you rethink your bad take, not double down on it.
Strawmen don’t exist, this user is asking you about situations that do exist, such as the example about the muslims, which is absolutely a real thing that you absolutely would get flack for saying in real life. So no, to ask you a why it’s magically ok for you to say it about men when it’s not ok to say about literally any other group, makes it by definition the very opposite of a strawman. Don’t use words if you don’t understand what they mean.
This also demonstrates that your point about power is wrong. If hate speech is only allowed about one single group, it suggests the opposite of: that group holds all the power.
I suppose not all women are as rude as you. Does that ignore and exclude you from the problem?
