@waldlaeuferin.bsky.social Ich weiß schon, warum ich Ohrstöpsel nur mit Kabel und Klinkenstecker habe. Kabellose Bluetooth-Kopfhörer für mich nur in groß mit Bügel.

(With no diss implied to the late great John Mahoney who played him, of course.)

BTW, I watched "Moonstruck" recently (also 1987) and tho it holds up brilliantly, the professor at NYU written and played as being flawed for serially dating women "too young for him" does not come across as tragic anymore, and his long speech about why he dates students is hard to take.

Without breaking confidences, many of them noted how deeply this affected their lives -- driving them out of chosen fields of study, or just traumatizing them as they continued to navigate a male-dominated world, and their own relationships. Even if they escaped the worst, a psychic meat grinder.,

Some gay male classmates reported similar harassment from gay professors. One or two women reported harassment from female teachers. But man -- I simply cannot believe -- and am ashamed I did not know at the time -- what my friends and classmates were enduring.

Stories of being harassed, propositioned, stalked, and of course punished, discouraged, ignored when such entreaties were refused. Complaining and being met with shrugs. One ran into the wife of the professor obsessed with her and the wife said, "Oh, you're THAT [name.]" as if she was the temptress.
