The Hollywood industry and other industries were plagued by unfortunate incidents of sexual harassment in the workplace. The now-disgraced producer in Hollywood, Harvey Weinstein, has been convicted of various charges, with many actresses coming forward and chronicling serious cases of harassment. Amidst the seriousness of it, a quick-witted post about a technique inspired by Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson was posted online.
A woman named Anne Victoria Clark devised a technique for men who do not want to be accused of sexual harassment. The writer whose post went viral on the internet in 2017 asked men to treat all the women in their workplace like Dwayne Johnson. She ensured that it would help men treat women like people. Even Dwayne Johnson gave his stamp of approval to the technique.

The Writer Asked Men To Pretend That Women Are Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson
Anne Victoria Clark had the cheeky idea of treating women like people in the workplace for men who do not want to get accused of sexual harassment. In a viral Medium post, Anne asked men to “Treat all women like you would treat Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.“ She suggested, “This life hack will have you treating women like people in no time.”
In the post, she asked the male readers to pretend that Karen, a beautiful friend of a friend, looks like the ‘Jumanji’ actor. She wrote, “Wow! Karen looks pretty tough and strong and sweaty! She looks like a person who is working very hard to achieve her goals, having left behind a situation that clearly wasn’t working, headed for bigger and better things. Maybe ask her about that? But definitely don’t hit on her. It looks like she could kill you with the chair you’re sitting on.”

Dwayne has admitted that it is the best thing that he is surrounded by some badass women. During a 2019 interview, he opened up about what it feels like to be surrounded by his daughters—Tia, Simone, and Jasmine. He said, “It’s just the best thing… I have a house full of just strong, badass women. It’s terrifying, but it’s awesome.”
He continued, “I grew up an only child. My dad was tough. He kicked my ass, so there was a lot of testosterone growing up. So there is this balance — having all this estrogenic energy — then also me having the opportunity to infuse ‘father’ and hopefully setting a standard of what a man should be in their lives.”
