I’m pretty sure a bunch of them are waiting for a shoe to drop. We’ve never seen this before. I was in the Marines during the Tailhook scandal and I initiated a sexual harassment case against my superior. 14 women came out and told tales of rape, harassment and debauchery. Base-wide scandal. Court Martials. Then the…

There’s an index in print in my city. #notyourmule

I am wanting every body in the world to #tellit. No more suffering in silence. Tell it.

Thinking of Richard Dreyfuss and George Takei and wondering if men will preemptively start a #IDidItToo campaign. Yet, I worry that the avalanche of admissions of guilt will turn into a “I am Spartacus” absolution of their crimes. Multiple men fessing up would act as a blanket redemption for all men who sexually…

An apologia is a formal, written defense of someone’s behavior. I think Louie CK has thought long and hard over the years about what he’d say when he could no longer chuckle off these “ridiculous!!!!” (sic) “rumors” about himself. I know some folks will accept his mea culpa as progress, as if it was swiftly…

He did blame them.

She filmed it after the rape as she was leaving, so maybe she subconsciously wanted proof in case she got gaslighted. She was dating Mark Salling, so guess what...he told her it was her fault and dumped her. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Salling was into kiddy porn.

So, he has fessed up. I just read his statement and am wondering how many folks will be taken in by his expressions of remorse. As much contrition and self-reflection it seems to express, this line is telling: “The power I had over these women is that they admired me. And I used that power irresponsibly.”

I just read Aurélie Wynn’s account of her assault by Ed Westwick and hope she decides to press charges and it’s not past any statute of limitations. She filmed her departure from his labyrinthine estate, so at least there are receipts for her being there.

Okay, now I know you’re trolling. The umlauts were the tip-off. This comment just confirmed it.

Wow. I’m super interested in what the comedians repped by Louie C.K.’s “fixer” are going to do. Amy Poehler, Aziz Ansari and the like are all under the same representation.

Everything ain’t for everybody.

1) After the TFA bullshit parade, past tense teachers don’t count unless they’re retired.

I see this joint is divided between two types of folks: ones who think it’s okay to coerce kids into performing intimate acts and those who feel squeamish about that prospect. I’ve been teaching for 19 years, so let me clutch my fucking pearls a little tighter for all of us.

Nah. You just look silly. And you occupy yourself. I get it. It’s like having friends who value your insight or spar with you intellectually and stuff. Except your opening salvos are so off-base, then you parry against any and all people who comment like you’re desperate to keep them on the line. Not to convince them…

Pffft.

You DO realize that an intimate act is STILL the act if you...ya know...DO it, right? How about Kevin Spacey say he was only “acting” when he was groping someone’s crotch? I cannot believe how obtuse some folks are being. Those kids had to actually put their mouths on each other for the scene. They weren’t allowed to…

It wasn’t a pretend kiss. They say it was their first kiss. That they were made to do.

STAHPPPPPPPP!!!!!! How are you castigating this site or the commenters for being stoked about a product BEFORE seeing how it was made? And when they IMMEDIATELY call bullshit for that action, you STILL are up in here trying to throw shade?! Stop.

AND IT WAS HER FIRST KISS! Ugh!
