Here are my thoughts on the whole election “p*ssygate” issue where feminist women have slammed Trump for advocating sexual assault. I wrote about in an earlier post that the feminists in the million woman march were actually angry that he stood in the way of Hillary being the first female president.
No one, not even Trump, advocated that it is ok to grab someone unwillingly by the genitals, which would unquestionably be assault. The politically incorrect thing at the heart of the issue is that power is an aphrodisiac, and there are women who are going to be sexually attracted enough to a powerful man to be willing to give their bodies for sexual encounters where they are not seriously expecting commitment in return. Trump’s comments were about taking advantage of being in that position. A powerful man who partook of women making themselves sexually available, would be guilty of womanizing, but not assault-- a moral wrong but not a crime.
It is uncomfortable for feminists to admit that that power is an aphrodisiac and that powerful men have a moral, but not a legal, obligation not to take advantage of women under the spell of their power. It is also uncomfortable that the type of power that makes men sexually attractive to women is not the same as what makes women attractive to men. It is even more uncomfortable to consider that a woman who is sexually attracted to powerful man has a responsibility not to act on her female sexual aggression, to “manize”, taking advantage of a man’s weakness for her body.
These are uncomfortable because they are based on the reality that men and women are wired differently and that women have responsibilities as much as men in regard to their sexual behavior. It is far more expedient for feminists, who believe that men and woman are not different except where women are better and more noble, to slander Trump for promoting assault.
