Big ups to Jezebel, and FU to those denial spewing apologists that said it couldn’t be true.

Nah, man; it’s a breath of fresh air, to hear an admission, but “I’m sorry that I was so famous and popular, and they wanted it” is not much of an apology. It’s the best we’ve seen, still not good enough.
Time for a #SingersTurn hashtag campaign
In a passionate Facebook post on Friday, Ellen Page has alleged that director Brett Ratner verbally abused her on…
The Amazon period drama Good Girls Revolt, which followed a group of female researchers in the late 1960s dealing…
I think people in general just have a ton of cognitive dissonance in their minds around sex, with an ability to segregate their sexual experiences/actions from the rest of their lives. Like I think the preacher hooking up in a truck stop bathroom has often managed to convince himself that whatever it is that he’s…
No, see here’s the thing. When you have power in a workplace and you “ask to consensually masturbate” someone can’t actually give proper consent because they risk losing their job if they say no.
I prefer Norm Macdonald’s theory that Walter White died in the car, surrounded by police, the rest was just fantasy.
They also always promise that these guys are terrible and will get punished one day and they never do. Draper got to reach enlightenment and made more ads. Walter White got to save everybody and die on his own terms. In both cases we’re told these guys aren’t heroes and all the bad fans getting it wrong. And then…
In this specific kind of harassment case, I think it’s that certain men need women in “slots”: the writer professional who is his equal and the assistant professional who is his underling. When she co-won that Emmy he was threatened by her moving up, as though it was pushing him out of power. So he belittled and hurt…
just . . . refuse to think about it?
As stories have come out, I’ve come to be interested in this, too. I know there are a lot of harassers who are obvious in their disdain for women, but others have actively promoted female work and feminist ideas. Is it like the conservative Christian preacher who has hook-ups with guys in bathrooms, do you think? They…
I’m not surprised. He never seemed to respect any of the women who acted on the show. I will have to see if I can find it but Christina Hendricks said in an interview that he would give her directions on basic things that any actor can do. She told him he didn’t need to write those things out for her and he said he…
You got it mixed up.
I’m a fan of Jen Kirkman and a diehard Jezzie. I admire CK’s work but have never been completely comfortable with him as a person, as I’d heard this shit before (which is rare, I usually have no idea what’s up with celebs). So...Confliction, party of 1.
Good rule of thumb: The more loudly, insistently, and/or repeatedly someone has to claim they are pious, moral, honest, fair (and balanced?), patriotic, etc. the less likely they are to actually BE any of those things.
I think we can all agree that this is probably the least surprising of all of the recent revelations.
Ok, but Charlie is alive and still able to victimize people. They should be investigating this.
Her absent talent aside, I have nothing but respect for Denise Richards
I looked this up on Reddit after the news broke and someone shared a a picture from when Denise Richards divorce filing and Richards listed a thing where one time they were on vacation, she caught him looking at gay porn and she was like “don’t they look underage to you?” and he was like “forget it Denise”, and then…
