I would much rather they keep their mouths shut than have them go up on stage and Matt Damon it.

Stop. Just stop it. The endless outrage culture, the ridiculous purity tests, all of it. You attack these men for supposedly saying nothing, and you know damn well you also would have attacked them had they said anything because then they were using their privilege to take over the movement. I have an extremely hard…

Someone else said it better:

I’m heavily leaning of the men keeping their fucking mouths shut.

Yeah, I don’t think this was a situation that had a ‘right answer’, not for everyone taking it in, anyway.

IDK that we need to come for Aziz Ansari, who literally made sexual harassment in entertainment a major plot point for Master of None season 2 AND let his co-writer Lena Waithe give 100% of the speech when they won their Emmy for best writing. He’s already done more than many creators and was probably was surprised he…

Okay, come on now, if they said anything then they would have been accused of talking over women, of making it all about them. If they don’t say anything, they are called out for it.
They are in a situation where they just can’t win because of their gender, which says a hell of a lot.

Agree with most comments here, that it’s tough for men to make comment about it as it’ll either come across as mansplianing, hogging the limelight or just ill informed. Though I also think there is an spot in there somewhere that men could have hit - recognition. Think that’s all it would take.

You didn’t hear? Matt Damon used his Bourne training to literally assassinate reporters working on Weinstein stories for years.

Not to interrupt your dunking of the OP here, but you are objectively wrong.

Honestly, I’m not sure what the fuck any of those men would have to say about this issue that is in any way relevant or meaningful.

lol you’re the worst.

From the Department of You Can’t Win, comes: this shit.

It’s a damned if you do damned if you don’t situation for men. Tom Hanks seems like a decent guy but he stumbled on the issue during an interview. Matt Damon isn’t a bad guy but he’s a cautionary tale to other men to sit down and shut up because he doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

i can name 66 trillion songs that sound the same but i’m also not giving you the satisfaction

I wish I was special.

I haven’t tried playing the guitar and counting money at the same time, but I imagine it’s near-impossible.

Given that first sentence, you really shouldn’t be mocking Lana Del Ray regarding her awareness of repeating things.

“I bet you hate that.”

Yeah this just sounds like one of those creepy, slow covers of a pop song that always appear in movie trailers lately, at least until the chorus happens. The melody and major-minor shift are exact copies.
