Summary
The MeToo Movement Is Backfiring Against Women... Again.
The latest from Bloomberg shows how many men are actively avoiding women and even canceling work related social events out of a fear they could be falsely accused or taken out of context.
This is resulting in fewer men working with and mentoring women.
But in response many women have simply said that its men refuse to work with them they could simply file discrimination complaints.
It seems that the push for social justice has no reasonable solution as feminists push from all sides. The only outcome that seems like would be gender segregation.

| 0:00.0 | Once again, we have a story in the news about the MeToo movement backfiring against women. |
| 0:04.8 | The latest from Bloomberg talks about how men on Wall Street have begun actively avoiding |
| 0:09.4 | women. |

| 0:34.2 | against the victims in the MeToo movement. |
| 0:36.7 | And that's rather unfortunate because there are some pretty awful men who are now facing |
| 0:41.1 | justice because of what MeToo spoke up about. |
| 0:44.3 | So today I want to take a look at the underlying causes as to why I think we see this phenomenon |
| 0:48.7 | and I also want to show some evidence that suggests men are actually between a rock and |
| 0:52.4 | a hard place. |
