Unquotable Quotes VIIIL : SEXUAL HARASSMENT* - the feminist kind (*”aggressive pressure or intimidation”: Is it really “any different” in most cases in the act, judging by Hollywood standards?)

ARREST THEM ALL and PUT US ALL IN THE SELF-SAME DEN so that we can continue to be harassed by them SANS END ! (c) T. Wignesan - Paris, 2017
