She's lying when she says she meets 'godesses', if she means it in the deitific sense - otherwise she just meets 'Divas'.

Hey Neil! Look at my tattoo! Look close!

Oh, yes, let me see -- does it have pluto in there?

[touches shoulder and back of arm]

eek! I've been sexually assaulted!

So inappropriate.

Just can't help misrepresenting, eh?
Dr. Allers said her experience was public and didn’t rise to the level of assault, but that it did show Tyson was capable of some “creepy behavior.”

That's what passes for "creepy" these days, eh? Guess they've never hung around carnies.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

The Mary Sue, too, I guess - "Three Women Have Now Accused Neil deGrasse Tyson of Sexual Misconduct" And, "Two women have accused him of inappropriate behavior towards them, including touching them without their consent and trying to seduce them. One of the accusers details how Tyson grabbed her arm to study her body-wide tattoo of the solar system, and then tried to “find Pluto” by following the tattoo into her dress " https://www.themarysue.com/neil-degrass ... ViA0xG9YlM

That's the link that was posted above on this thread, and the one I was addressing.

Tyson is capable of "Creepy behavior" -- frankly, depending on the person, asking a stranger to examine one's tattoos might well be considered creepy. Perhaps Dr. Allers herself is "capable of some 'creepy behavior'"! LOL.

The main point is that a person making some sort of public complaint about this kind of thing ought to be ashamed of herself.

You guess incorrectly. Nowhere in that article does Dr. Allers accuse deGrasse Tyson of sexual assault. Nor does the author of the article make such an accusation on her behalf.

Yes, you've made your position on this topic clear. Dr. deGrasse Tyson has a more enlightened perspective. In fact, his accounts of the two occasions do not contradict the women's and he apologized in a straight-forward manner.

Who gives a fuck? They were standing next to each other for a public photo op and he touched her arm. Lady, grow the fuck up.

Do you even read these articles? The lead says it was "Sexual Misconduct" and the "sexual misconduct" was "touching without consent" (AKA "assault and battery") and the article calls it inappropriate and sexual misconduct. So, an assault which is sexual misconduct is what? Sexual and assault. Sexual assault.

And, the article is even dopier than that - saying that it's "inappropriate" behavior and "Sexual misconduct" to "Try to seduce" a woman. LOL. Such clap trap.

Yeah, Tyson has to watch his mouth, because if he treads the wrong way on this, they'll roast him. He's lucky he's not on a pyre now.

No, they don't contradict the women's accounts, which is why I said that I don't need to think they're liars. Even if everything they say is true, the stories are painfully stupid and unbecoming of an adult to even mention it. A lady's arm was touched after she offered it up to be inspected by the guy - and the other one is a woman who was invited up for wine and cheese and had her hand shaken after not being hit on. She thinks he tried "seduce" her, says the Mary Sue. LOL. Grown women griping about this?

Stop, just stop.
