<p style="text-align: justify;">Another woman came forward on Saturday (October 22) to accuse Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump of inappropriate conduct.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Jessica Drake, an adult film industry actor and director, told reporters at a news conference in Los Angeles that Trump grabbed her and kissed without asking, and then offered her money and the use of his private jet if she would spend the evening with him.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;Donald called. He asked me to return to his suite and have dinner with him&#8230;I declined. Donald then asked me: &#8216;What do you want. How much?&#8217; I told him that I couldn&#8217;t because I had to return to L.A. for work. I said that as an excuse because I didn&#8217;t want him to continue asking me and I didn&#8217;t want to be with him.&#8221; She told the briefing that she later received another call offering her $10,000 and the use of Trump&#8217;s private jet if she would accept his invitation.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Drake said the encounter occurred at a golf tournament in Lake Tahoe ten years ago. She said she is coming forward now to show her support for the other women who have accused the New York businessman of inappropriate conduct. She added that Trump&#8217;s actions showed his character as that of &#8220;uncontrollable misogyny, entitlements and to being a sexual assault apologist.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">At least 10 women accused Trump of making unwanted sexual advances, including groping them or kissing them, between the early 1980s and 2007. Trump has denied all of the accusations.</p>

<p>Nearly one in five respondents said the perpetrator was their direct supervisor, and around a quarter said they felt they would not be taken seriously or believed if they reported the harassment.</p>
<p>Young women between 18 and 24 fared worse than other age groups, with two-thirds experiencing workplace sexual harassment, according to the report by the Trades Union Congress (TUC) and women&#8217;s rights group Everyday Sexism.</p>
<p>&#8220;The numbers are shocking and it should be a wake up-call,&#8221; Alice Hood, head of equality at TUC told the Thomson Reuters Foundation. &#8220;Sexual harassment is still a really big problem for women in the workplace. It&#8217;s certainly not gone away.&#8221;</p>
<p>She said many women did not report the incident because they were embarrassed, thought they would not be taken seriously, or feared it would damage career prospects.</p>
<p>Sexual harassment can include sexual jokes or innuendos, the circulation of pornography, inappropriate touching or unwanted sexual advances, according to the report, which surveyed 1,533 women across Britain aged between 18 and 65.</p>
<p>Almost a third of women said they had been the subject of sexual jokes at work, and one quarter said they had experienced unwanted touching, such as on the knee or lower back.</p>
<p>&#8220;Things have not improved anywhere near as much as people would like to think,&#8221; said Laura Bates, founder of Everyday Sexism.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s so pervasive because it isn&#8217;t being talked about. Women don&#8217;t feel they are able to come forward, and when they do, it isn&#8217;t being dealt with at all.&#8221;</p>
<p>Hood said employers must confront and deal with harassment through staff training, changing workplace culture and by implementing robust policies.</p>
<p>&#8220;Maybe it&#8217;s happening on email or social media &#8211; but it&#8217;s still harassment and it still has a really humiliating effect on people experiencing it,&#8221; she added.</p>
<p>&#8220;Employers need to do much more &#8211; it is clearly a huge problem. The first step is taking it seriously &#8230; so people know that harassment won&#8217;t be tolerated.&#8221;</p>
