If women can't speak up, lest they be further marginalized, and men can't speak up, lest they add more fuel, what can be done?...

(Not that I disagree at all! Serious question.)

You are directly responsible for yourself and anyone you employ. You have some responsibility for the actions of those you do business with insomuch as you can stop doing business with them. Lets start here.
Speaking up is required and necessary. You have to bring terrible situations to light.

Wrecking people's reputations and careers with mob justice is unacceptable. You must not burn situations with fire.

Women and men can, and should, both speak up (or, better, take action). It's not a question of IF, it's a question of when and how.
