I think it has gone too far. The definition of MeToo has become unclear. And it has come to mean whatever people (women) want it to mean.

I don't know who is telling the truth as I wasn't with them on that date but it bothers me when women use rape/sexual misconduct to seek revege on men. It bothers me because then, the real victims will lose credibility. This is serious matter you shouldn't use it as if it was a game or a revenge.
 
Regarding this thread’s poll, I believe you could find examples of all of the above.

Overall, I think the Me Too movement has raised awareness regarding a problem that many women have had to deal with. I believe the overwhelming majority of women are truthful and reasonable in describing their experiences.

Unfortunately, there will always be some women who lie or make more of a “bad date” than they should (eg the Aziz Ansari example mentioned above). I think these are a small minority but we need to pay attention to these situations when they arise and learn from them too.

Overall, I think #MeToo has been a good thing for society.
 
If #MeToo is to become a force for good they have to be more persuasive and less militant.

 
It's a great movement but they need to root out the people that are abusing it.

The accusations that got the whole movement rolling was against Kevin Spacey .It will be two years in November, and though he has been charged I'd bet he's found not guilty on the charge he has against him. Other than that I'm still not sure what he did to have his career COMPLETELY demolished.
 
Like all things good, some use it for bad.

The same could be said for so many things.

Sadly #metoo is needed more then the small few who have used it negatively.
 
metoo has run its course and it is now being overrun by over-raged hardcore feminists, glorified man-haters for men bashing w/ no basis. I did support metoo in the beginning, but now? not so much.... god forbids if you have a conversation w/ a woman, let alone compliment her.
 
The whole movement is ostensibly about women being valued for more than their sexuality or looks.

Yet take a stroll through social media and you see women objectifying themselves in all sorts of ways.

The ladies need to take some responsibility here, they bitch when men objectify them yet have no problem objectifying themselves.

It's the same curve as BLM.

Same intentions to exploit real problems for the greater agenda and political plan.

I don’t like that it sometimes takes away from the real victims and undermines their cries and needs.

On the surface it is good but look at the origins and roots for the real reasons.
 
I’m still waiting for the prisons to start bursting at the seams with all the falsely accused men getting arrested for things they didn’t do. The terb Righties were hyper-ventilating and clutching their pearls as they waited for the authorities to come banging on their doors...but so far, all I hear is *crickets*
