I don’t think we have to put down one woman to elevate another. That’s right from the misogynist troll’s bag of tricks.

Oh hey ok so first of all your example is 40 years old-not exactly an example of modern sensibilities- but also cis women playing cis men has none of the baggage of the prejudices facing trans folks. Cis men do not face a whole society trying to tell them that they are actually women, and so casting a cis woman in…

Well...they shouldn’t have though. I’m a younger “woke” person who loves films those actors were in, But it’s not the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s or 90s anymore, it’s 2019 going on 2020 and right about now the human race was arguably supposed to get smarter about society, culture, inclusiveness and representation in the media…

When they have trans women being able to play “Irish woman” or other traditional cis woman parts without it being questions or centered around thier trans identity, then scarjo can play a trans person

You do realize she was a producer on the project. In this case she was very much part the denying Trans actors a shot playing a trans character. She could have chosen a different story to produce. It seems like the real reason she quit Rub and Tug was Black Widow was given the green light finally.

“She doesn’t seem like a particularly bad or insensitive person”

Should all roles calling for an “Irish Woman” actually employ only Irish women or will anyone who can pull off the accent and is willing to color her hair do?

So you’re saying she should be cast as Harriet Tubman? And that it’s be fine if that was the case?

Personally, I’d like to see her try playing a person who gives a shit about Palestinians.

There’s a pretty big difference between playing an Irish woman and playing someone who is trans.... I’m too tired to explain how wrong your argument is and why, maybe someone else who speaks more eloquently than I do can explain it to you.

You know, as an actor I should be allowed to play any person

I also loved So Notorious and I will watch this show til the bitter end.

Question: I thought “alleged” was used to prevent any kind of libel suit? and had to be used until conviction?

But I think in the “alleged” has to do with if there is a pending legal case which if the person has been formally charge but not yet tried or convicted.

We see this a lot too from the media/politicians as well through the lens of “non-consensual sex.” There isn’t sex and non-consensual sex, there is sex and there is rape.

As someone who developed early (C cup by age 12, also tall) believe me, I know about men just deciding how much you “owe” them due to your appearance.

Carter is now trying to throw Ward under the bus, claiming that he didn’t publish her findings because he “didn’t have confidence in Ward’s reporting” at the time. (Which is a different excuse than he used before.)

Anecdotally, that may not be the case. Democratic PolitiTwitter seems to be coming down squarely on the side of letting the chips fall where they may and if Bill Clinton gets swept up, so be it. The wording of some of it is awkward, as in Christine Pelosi stating that “some of our favorites may be implicated” and…

I think this is his way to continue abusing her and to have control over her and her life, if he was a sane person he would have let this shit go a long time ago. I believe Amber Heard 100%. I know an abuser when I see one. 

Good. Vicki was a narcissistic me monster that made the show hard to watch.
