Margolick said that because the female law students who graduated from the most prestigious law school in the country now have good jobs, they suffered no harm.

What a stupid piece of shit. I'm so sick of the boys will be boys mentality. Why do we set the bar so low for boys? Why don't more people see that that's what we're doing. Our definition of 'masculinity' does not include many of the traits that I think make a good & decent (hu)man.
