I certainly get that. It's a matter of common sense, intent, and proper judgment, and unfortunately there have always been hyper-litigious individuals who are eager to sue at the drop of a hat. However, the repeat serial offenses of Ailes, O'Reilly, Trump, and yes Bill Clinton if those particular allegations are true (keeping in mind that Monica was consensual) are never acceptable, and women should not have to put up with it. And not to forget that men can be victims as well. As for the politically correct thing, I get that as well. The term was actually coined by the left some years back in an effort to rein in the more strident word cops in their midst. The right has redefined the term and used it as an excuse to dog whistle and make prejudicial speech socially and culturally acceptable under the guise of "free speech". And yes, everyone has a right to that, but creating fear with false equivalency and blanket statements is never a good thing. "Mexicans are drug dealers and rapists". "All Muslims are terrorists". "Blacks are lazy welfare chiselers and rob taxpayers blind". "Gays want to recruit your kinds". And so on. Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes an "alternative fact" aka "the truth". Call someone on a lie and you're accused of "political correctness". Just trying to put things in perspective a bit.
