(291 posts)Ok, hear me out. It sounds like it's a workplace culture issue. When I read that a WOMAN told the younger woman to sit within eye shot, or to wear stilettos, it sounds to me (a woman) that she was telling the younger woman what she needed to do to get ahead and get by. Kind of and wrongly encouraging his inappropriate behavior.
This sounds like a slew of people either found his behavior acceptable or atleast tolerated it for a long time, which is part of the problem. I know it was because of his status and fear of retribution, etc, that no one called him on it, in fact, just the opposite. Kind of grin and bear it culture.
What Cuomo has done is wrong...if it turns out the groping allegations are true, he should be fired!
But, it sounds like a whole lot of repenting is necessary and education on what is appropriate and not in the workplace. This happens throughout the entire country, from a manager at Burger King to the governor of one of the most powerful states in the union. We have culture problem.
Let the investigation continue and I believe he should be allowed to seek professional help, along with the entire work staff.
