Beside the sexually abused victims, are there others who suffered from the misuse of power?

Asked by LuckyGuy (43693points) November 30th, 2017

Imagine the H Weinstein case. He had the power, and used it, to promote women who had sex with him. What happened to the others who were more talented but refused?
Imagine the Matt Lauer or Charlie Rose situations. Any journalism student would jump at the chance to intern with them for a period. I’d be willing to bet plenty of male candidates applied for those jobs. Were they passed over because the hosts were looking for females? Were lesser candidates promoted because they complied?
How many had their career hopes dashed because of a rejection that was actually based upon their sex and not their qualifications?
Is there a way to comprehend this aspect of the abuse?
