Is that according to you? Or according to people familiar with the exchanges?

Well to be clear, I'm talking about the article. As for the actual situation being hinted at by the article (that's all it does), I didn't know anything about it before reading the article, and I don't know anything about it after reading the article, because the article contains nothing.

Are you "asking for someone"?

Basically, this article says he asked women out which made them feel uneasy, but he never forced or pressured them.
That's basically what happens when a guy asks out a woman who's not into him and believe me I know 
If women asked out men it would probably be the same, but that's a cultural taboo, so it doesn't happen as often.
Not saying Bill is a saint, he obviously asked out women while married and even had an affair, just saying approaching a woman != rape or whatever this article is trying to insinuate.
I asked out a cashier once, quite awkward and she already had a boyfriend.
This will come back to bite me when I make billions and some journalists decide they don't like me

A local man was admitted to the ER on Saturday with 25 toy horses inserted in his rectum.
His condition is listed as stable.

Does this help?

It does make some sense: mic and audio jack developed independently, and the four pin combined jack was an "extension" of the audio pinout - since the ground connector in nearly all sockets was quite high up on the plug, it made sense to use the bottom bit for microphone so you could plug a combined unit or a mic-free unit into a 3- or 4- pin socket without horrible noises.

I'd found another resource (which has fallen off the end of my browser history...). My main gripe was the disconnect between the actual wiring and the physical design of the plug. All the 2- and 3-pole ones neatly terminate the cable screen in the clamp.
And your reference seems to have a real problem with a 3-pole mic plug.  The one example I can find of something that would plug into such an adapter has tip and ring shorted. Mono mic - feed both channels, I guess someone thought.

Any time you've got a T(R)S type connection with different numbers of rings on the plug and socket you're going to be shorting something together. The whole thing is a glorious cluster ![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) of technical debt via accreted design and needing to maintain legacy support.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
