Right. Trump supporters obviously don’t care about rape, Bernie supporters are going to be in “Bernie could still win” mode until the convention, and as per usual, far too many liberals would rather contemplate their own ideological navels than look up and see that something about the whole affair is sketchy as fuck.

I do wonder where the complaint is and why Reade doesn’t have a copy of it or why she’s not insisting someone find it. Written evidence is always the best evidence and if it exists, its the best way for her to prove that she at least filed a complaint however many years ago.

I’m sure this will be an extremely unpopular opinion, but uh, what else is he supposed to do? I’m not a Louis C.K. fan, I’ve never even watched any of his material to even make a judgment. I’ve just literally never cared about his act.

Nothing against Lebron, but can we all accept that the Eastern conference really, really, sucks?

I’m not excusing anything other than what I mentioned in my previous post, but what I mentioned is insanely misrepresented by the author of the story. The degree to which it’s misrepresented is very concerning.

Watch the video of this. It is ridiculously misrepresented in this story. The ripe comment was because the reporter was pregnant, and the “wish I was there” comment comes right after Michael Caine tells a story about congratulating an un-pregnant woman on her pregnancy and is CLEARLY referencing that, not the…

Forget helicopter parenting. Thanks to her background, she would know exactly what is manipulation, how to spot it and how to use it. With this knowledge, her “pieces” make so much more sense. They aren’t performance pieces as much as manipulation pieces. Such as going after Picasso knowing full well that the press…

This is what gets to me about this story. He apologized and left her alone. What else does she want out of this? If there are multiple stories that show a pattern from Aziz, then let’s hear that. I’m sorry she had to go through this on a date but I also don’t know what recourse she wants from him.

She also expressed her feelings to him the next day. He heard her out and apologized. I see no reason to doubt the sincerity of his apology. His statement on the matter affirms that he took her words to heart.

I generally agree with you but at the same time, how many times have I read right here on this very site, in the articles and especially the comments, that it’s time for men to “shut up and listen”? And the one time they do just that, it’s the wrong answer too. I’m also pretty certain that had a lot of men spoken up,…

It seems like the consensus among the male celebs is that the potential for career damage is greater than the potential gain. By commenting, they risk a gaff, which could spin out of control; and if they say the right thing, at best get an attaboy from the media that is quickly lost in the ether (because there’s…

If you saw the Dave Chappelle stand up, he made a point about this. Why say anything of support, if you’re only going to get shit about something you did in the past. Nobody is allowed to learn and grow from their mistakes.

Seriously? Have you hung out on the internet lately? The pitchforks come out even if you have the best of intentions.

An inordinate amount of people are attracted to massage therapy because of sexual interest...Just like there was opportunity in the priesthood, there’s opportunity in the massage room.

This is why I hate sex work in general. When you sell your body, you are the product. Your self worth and personal value is literally monetized. It’s gross. Don’t sell your body!

He admitted everything and apologized for what he did. Why not take him at his word that he’s genuinely remorseful? It’s gross behavior no doubt, but he asked first each time before he did it, and if they said no, he didn’t do it. I don’t think the guy’s career should be ruined forever because of this.

I get your point, but there are documented cases of false rape accusations. I think that there are other instances where people can see the victim’s own story and doubt it - see the Cosby trial for an example of that.

Holy cow, are we making an issue out of this? I saw the Beyond Stranger Things episode myself and Sadie was embarrassed, but not traumatized. If you get a job in Hollywood you eventually have to pretend to kiss people you don’t love in real life. It’s how acting works. Quit grasping at straws just because you’re…

I’d hazard a guess that Tarantino and many others were so keen on working in the industry that they put their suspicions aside and focused on whatever their job was. 

Yep. The last time this issue was discussed the writer did the same thing, and the commenters all pointed out that he addressed the allegations directly.
