This is a very good article because it promotes concrete ideas for changes, (no meetings to be held in hotel rooms, etc), that could reduce the opportunities for predatory behavior to occur.

Ms. Kirshner does however, go overboard when she writes:

"Stronger laws and punishments are needed to curb sexual impropriety."

We need to look for ways that society can protect women's well being, (just as we should look for ways to protect ALL citizens' well being). Sexual abuse is a crime, and should be punished by the society. 

Sexual harassment, however, is much harder to define.

If a woman receives flirtatious attention from a man she wants to attract, would she not welcome it? Does the same behavior only become 'harassment' according to the woman's own whims and/or desires?

My dictionary defines "impropriety" as: "an improper or indecorous act or remark".

Do we really want or need society to pass laws, and provide punishments, for bad manners, and/or lack of social graces?
