In the excerpt, Professor Mann posits two worlds closed off from one another: The first where men abuse women with impunity, and the second where that impunity doesn't exist and allegations are taken seriously. But the two worlds appear to be equal in her disquisition because "too often moral outrage substitutes for real thinking," in the second world. Does she manage to overcome that equivalency in the rest of the behind-the-paywall column?
