Twitter exploded on Thursday over allegations from a KABC radio anchor that Sen.

The incident, which included photographic evidence, occurred three years before the former “Saturday Night Live” star won his Senate seat.
"It wasn’t until I was back in the U.S. and looking through the CD of photos we were given by the photographer that I saw this one," Leeann Tweeden wrote in a piece on KABC.com, a Los Angeles-based ABC radio affiliate.
"I felt violated all over again. Embarrassed. Belittled. Humiliated," she wrote. "How dare anyone grab my breasts like this and think it’s funny?"
Tweeden included a photo of Franken, who has been married since 1975, grabbing her breasts while smiling back at the camera.
The reaction on social media was swift as Franken shot to the top of Twitter's trending list of most-discussed topics on the site in a matter of minutes after the story broke.
The photo in this story alleging Al Franken kissed/groped a woman against her will is ... jarring. This is going to be a major problem on Capitol Hill. http://www.kabc.com/2017/11/16/leeann-tweeden-on-senator-al-franken/ …pic.twitter.com/EAaQkqFWd4

英國曾被稱為日不落帝國,擁有世界上最多的殖民地,曾是西方最強大的國家。二戰結束後,英國逐漸沒落,目前軍隊隻有20多萬,其中女兵約占十分之一,大概在2萬人左右。這些女兵的到來,對於那些常年不見女人的男兵來說,誘惑力也非常大,因此被爆出了很多性醜聞事件,主要是以陸軍和海軍為主。Mitbbs.com
2006年,在地中海海域的一艘英國皇家海軍軍艦上,一位24歲的女兵被一個上士強奸,這是英國海軍自招收女兵以來,首次被爆出醜聞。2014年英國皇家海軍曆史上第一位莎拉·韋斯特因被爆與下屬有不正當關係被撤職。Mitbbs.com
而在陸軍中,這種性醜聞事件就更多了。Mitbbs.com
英國國防部透露,從2003年到2009年這6年時間,英國一共向伊拉克和阿富汗戰場上派出了約5600名女兵,這些女兵中至少有130人懷孕,生下的孩子都能組成一個連隊了。雖然英國政府也對犯事士兵進行了嚴肅處理,但效果並不大。據英國《每日郵報》指出,從2012年到2017年10月這5年時間,軍方共收到了360多起性騷擾指控,平均每個星期都會發生一起。看來英國在處理性醜聞這件事上還很任重道遠啊。Mitbbs.comhttp://www.mitbbs.com/news_wenzhang/MiscNews/31281591.html
