I think it's important to separate different types of harassment. Yes, Feynman was probably sexist and viewed women in terms of stereotypical gender roles, but so did probably 70% plus of people in the 60s.

I specifically contrast that with the many recent reports of deliberate abuses of power or outright assault. There was still a knowledge, even back in the not too distant past, that those things were wrong, as evidenced by the fact that so many men tried to keep their behavior hidden.

Yes! Why do we keeping on calling assault "misconduct" or "inappropriate behavior"?
