I think you've pointed out that the need for proper investigation and evidence on both sides. We need both the alleged victim and alleged perpetrator to have access to not only the proper support, but also realistic and thorough investigation.

We can't assume on either end.

That may be true, but we don't automatically convict someone of murder because they robbed a liquor store.

All I want people to do is be careful how they talk/write about these things. We must be very careful not to assume guilt and convict them in our minds. This person may be guilty of sexual misconduct, but that is…

Alleged is not the same as proven guilty is why. You can't just assume people are telling the truth and punish someone without due process. As Brown has stated before, they're not in a position to criminally convict an alleged perpetrator.

I want to see rapists put away as much as anyone, but I am a little disturbed at…

"accused of the assault"

"alleged"

This is the problem I have with this situation. So many people assume guilt until proven innocent. This student may or may not have committed this crime, but it will surly follow him around for a lifetime. If he is found guilty, then he deserves jail, however, if innocent....well, I…

I think we have established that to the writers of Jezebel, Photoshop is some magical voodoo, that was programmed by devil witches and demons that drink baby tear mochas.

Here is a list of some established genres of movies. There are undoubtably a few more, but this is a good start.

There you go again. Actively dismiss any additional data because you want there to be an issue. You focus one one type of film, in this case indie films, and then brush those off by saying, "oh...well those don't have very much influence."

As I said before. Anyone who knows anything about statistics knows that you can't simply choose the stats that favour the argument. There are many, many, films made every year, in many counties. The first step to determining the scope of the issue (or if there is even an issue) is to gather data across the entirety of…

It means that you can't judge an entire industry based on what is most popular. If people don't go see the little movie about women in the south, because they opt for the big budget popcorn flick, that isn't the industries fault. That little movie is just as valid as the blockbuster, but because people choose…

Ok.....and?

All I can say to you is my own anecdotal experience. The city I went to school in had two major make-up schools, and a few smaller ones. My school alone graduated a new batch of about 300 students every month. 99.9% of them female.

"1. I used "get to" because it is a lot of hard work to climb the corporate ladder, I would describe anyone who'd spent years in an industry ending up in the board room as having "gotten there". I didn't imply anything was handed to them. "Get to" is a common phrase describing travel. Female execs have traveled up the…

I can't go into a long explanation, but here is a basic breakdown.

"But seriously I'm sure women are part of the problem but I'm guessing the women who get to be execs get there by working with in the parameters that their male superiors approve off"

Wow...ok....how do I word this.

Not only did you insult all males by…

I agree. I have always said that story needs to come first, and the characters need to be appropriate to that story. Trying to shoehorn characters into a movie just to please everyone really doesn't make things any better.

As a human, I can sympathize and empathize with other humans regardless of gender. That is why…

Well done, you were successfully able to insult, stereotype, and belittle everyone in one post. You should write comedies!

I don't agree with the idea of a diversity lounge for the following reasons.

To be fair, this conversation was over before it started. You've proven way too close minded to understand what anyone is saying here. Your comments really had no validity to start with, but gave a few here a jumping off point to create some great replies that might help sway others who are much more receptive.

I'll give you one reason.

I'm going to do a preemptive response since spending my day off trying to enlighten someone on the internet, isn't really what I want to do.
