Woman is even stupid enough to say:

in that position, feel able to complain, and those who do that, are held to

How very responsible of her, some 45 years after the alleged event. This,
after having the nerve to criticise Theresa May for not responding quickly
enough about Trump's views.

It might have been cathartic in sone way to publicly relate the

just upset his relitives who did no wrong.

Not saying that I agree with her tho.

Somehow I dont believe her. Its just my gut reaction. I am a fraction younger that HH. I went to university in 1974. Professors generally didnt do this sort of thing. Feminism in its sexist way had not taken off and what feminism there was in universities tended to leave most of us highly regarded..

I can imagine possibly some banter where she might have made a comment to him about why she might need to do to get a better grade .Maybe she suggested sleeping with him even! Girls did do that. Honestly, I was there and knew about it. But for the most part sex was not a means of improving your degree in the 1970's.

In the 1990's I did hear of a number of cases of pillow talk enhancing
grades.

So, why is she bringing this now? Try to be relevant. Because she is "The Harperson" isnt she? Feminist agenda? Man cant defend himself..... I am more than dubious concerning her agenda here.

Of course, she got a upper second anyway, and according to her she rejected his advances.

Somehow I do wish changing your degree grade back then, but it was not the way things were.

I find what;s more worrying is the women that might have said yes to such things where they have exchanged sex because they couldn't do what was asked so used thier bodies to get what they wanted.
Womens groups never stand up against this sort of thing I wonder why.

Personally I don't think that is more worrying than blackmailing young
women over whom one is in a position of trust. Worrying, yes, but not
*more* worrying.

That is of course without prejudice as to whether I believe the index

You have someone in charge of a nuclear engineering installation who has passed her qualifications because she gave good blow jobs rather than know the job.
For me that would be worrying.

They are unlikely to have had reciprocal simultaneous
sex changes, its rather more likely that they just ****ed.

thier bodies to get what they wanted. Womens

Some have done that with marriage.

There is also something mildly worrying about the idea of putting a new
graduate in charge of a nuclear installation without a little training
and supervised work for people with sound reasons for wanting to make
sure she could actually do it. So I think the worst that could happen
is someone getting into a training course ahead of someone who should
have got better grades than them. Annoying, but not dangerous.

I think that junior lecturers, who were often not much older than the
students, saw it as a perk of the job. However, when I was at university
one professor was noted for his predilection for bedding female first
