I feel it's up to us women to refuse to accept this atrocious, life-shattering behavior. Be empowered! Raise your sons to have regard for ALL living things, respect for people and regard for women. Refuse to accept any kind of "out of line" behavior from someone you are getting to know, dating or involved with. If we women will be less tolerant and more firm about drawing our line in the sand, many men will begin to see past their own selfish wants. That whole attitude of "boys will be boys" is carte blanche for them to ruin lives and barely receive a slap on the hand for it. We have to set the standard, women. We are the ones who make a civilization "civil."
