Sexual Misconduct Allegations
Young’s husband was accused several times of sexual misconduct; following the Weinstein effect, a series of women came forward with their own stories of sexual misconduct often from men of fame or in power. With Weinstein convicted for his actions, numerous other women stepped forward to try and pull executives as well as other celebrities from their place. The movement was called #MeToo on social media, and the actions were good in helping rid people who have harassed many in the past. Other men have found themselves to be victims in the propagating of false rumors and stories.
Neil would be one of the recent accused, with one women from his graduate school, the same woman he had a brief relationship with, accusing him of drugging and raping her back in the 1980s. Soon several women came forward, with one stating that he felt her up during a public event, and another believing that she was being seduced when she was invited to his home. He wrote a lengthy article addressing each of these incidents, and apologizing for anything that was misinterpreted, while discrediting other accusations including the alleged rape. Many have come forward in his support, stating that a lot of these stories are without credibility.
