So will this earn him that dreaded “Difficult To Work With” label that results in your acting career going down the shitter, or at least leaving you glad to get roles in Lifetime movies? Or does that rule only apply to female performers who refuse to do nude sex scenes or touch the director’s pee-pee, not dudebros who…

The thing that struck me about Roiphe’s argument there (in addition to your very valid point that women shouldn’t have to take that shit in any event) is that even if every woman in the world was absolutely unbothered by sexual advances or sexual harassment in the workplace, I have a very hard time believing that men…

I do think it’s something of an age thing. Older women endured so much of this shit, and now some of them resent younger women who expect better. I experienced a twinge of this recently—I had my kids 10+ years ago and get very little maternity leave. It sucked, and I was very much in support of more generous laws and…

I have a lot of progressive male friends who are off the “boys will be boys” train and jumped straight on to the “but there are gray areas and now I question almost every interaction I have with a female coworker, life is hard, wahh” train. I basically had to say “welcome to our world, boys” because that’s what a LOT…

Please. Look at the lives all of these assholes have derailed with their assaults and harassment. Until you do that, I won’t be shedding a tear for the accused.

Show me a smart, competent professional man who is utterly derailed by an anonymous accusation that was hastily deleted from social media and I will show you a rare spotted owl.

I really do find that idea of theirs that demanding not to get sexually harassed or worse as “self-imposed victimhood” of a negative context intolerable.

“The majority of women in the workplace are not tender creatures and are largely adept at dealing with all varieties of uncomfortable or hostile situations,” Roiphe wrote in the New York Timesin 2011. “Show me a smart, competent young professional woman who is utterly derailed by a verbal unwanted sexual advance or…

Especially when he’s A) a teacher at a school you paid money to attend and B) a celebrity in your field who could very definitely ruin your career.

Agreed, but the feeling of regret is much worse when you don’t say no.

“The cognitive dissonance, the denial and cowardice that spare us painful truths and prevent us from acting in defense of innocent victims while allowing “beloved” individuals to continue their heinous behavior must be jettisoned from the bottom of our souls.”

I’m just here to comment on this guy wearing cuff links the wrong way.

“Oh no, not James Franco too,” said No One Ever.

Except Y: the Last Man is a long form graphic novel written by a man and told from the point of view of a man.

My feelings on the entire “SHE-E-O” thing. Yes, we need more female CEO’s for a variety of reasons. But don’t other them into this whole cutesy bullshit new thing. She is a CEO and deserves all the praise and scrutiny that comes from being a CEO of a successful business. And that’s it.

If only talent meant better pay in hollywood.

Woman nominated 4 times for an Oscar = $1000

I wonder if part of this is about women who would rather believe they were seduced than assaulted. It’s often easier to act like you were a willing participant than accept the reality. And if you are a woman of a certain age, it had to be damn near impossible to escape predators.

Honestly I am just so sick to fucking death of American Christian church rhetoric. Like I’m so fucking sick of megachurches and smarmy, self-righteous pastors and everyone being so FUCKING INSANE about sex and sexuality. I’m sick of this country’s Pence-yness and I’m sick of disgusting religious nonsense having any…
