Probably because of the power dynamic makes it really hard to see how free that "choice" really is.

And also puts doubt on any decisions by the boss that affect the employee - companies don't want people "sleeping their way to the top" as that's not putting the business' needs first.

This is a very successful woman, career wise. She’s clearly not incapable of navigating high stakes power dynamics and you shouldn’t just absolve her of responsibility in this.

(Your second statement carries far more weight)

We don't really have the ability to judge the power dynamic without intimate knowledge of the people and their personal lives, we don't even know when things started and what place their lives were in then.

It's why we generally frown upon relationships if there's any direct business link.
