From Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein to Fox News' Roger Ailes and Bill O'Reilly, a disturbing succession of sexual harassment scandals have been making headlines. The New York Times reports that "an unintended consequence of a season of sex scandals" is that certain workplaces have become more tense.
To make it easier for men to ensure they behave appropriately with women in the workplace (and hopefully, everywhere else), one woman has devised a brilliant life hack she calls "The Rock Test."
"It's as clear cut as this: Treat all women like you would treat Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson," writes Anne Victoria Clark in a post on the popular online publishing platform Medium.
"When a woman approaches you, just replace her in your mind with The Rock. Then, behave accordingly," she explains in the viral post.
