I think it's everybody's job to take reasonable steps to prevent anyone else from experiencing the type of assault she describes.

  In that spirit, let me take it upon myself to remind you not to heap additional responsibilities on victims of harassment. She wrote it up, which is already more than she owed the world.

    I'm not trying to heap additional responsibilities on victims of harassment. I'm just saying that I think there are certain responsibilities everybody has, whether they're victims or not. If one of her co-founders had been writing that email, I would have exactly the same comment.

      None of her responsibilities involve sending "the message he needs to receive". His needs are not material to the conversation. It is not her job to fix him.

        I think we'll have to agree to disagree here. I have a more expansive view of "duty to society" than you.
