Another case of “she dressed and behaved in a provocative manner”

I read The headline is sexual harassment - woman gets £90,000 after bottom smacked at work. Later it’s said it was alleged she dressed and behaved provocatively. I assume that’s the ‘defence’ for what was clearly sexual harassment.

I’m beginning to believe sexual harassment and misogyny is worse now than it was in the seventies. How can any male manager believe he can ask a female employee to stand, turn round then hit her backside with a ruler. I wonder if he was dismissed. Indefensible behaviour.

Too disgusted to say anything other than how disgusted I am.
