I don't see a power imbalance here. If a young woman in her 20's invitingly flashes her thong panties at a man, I don't see how she can be portrayed as the victim.
According to the law applied to normal people, Monica was the victim. Also according to the law applied to normal people, Clinton was required to spill his guts about all of his sex life, because some women sued him, whereas the women suing was completely protected against any questions concerning her sex life. These laws are flagrantly unjust, but the Democrats introduced them and applied them. Feminists supported and continue to support Clinton precisely because he supported and supports laws that he flagrantly broke. If these laws are to be repealed for politicians, they should be repealed for normal people as well. --digsig James A.
