Being estranged from my family is a weird feeling, but I can’t think about them voting for taking away my rights as a woman without nausea so it’s the only way. Nothing has worked, not even Xanax. Sometimes, when my despair becomes anger, I plan the resistance. But other times all I can do is stare at the wall in…

Yes, *he’s* bringing attention to the sexual assault epidemic, because “the media” haven’t been talking about it at all. AT ALL! He magnanimously offers his film as a catalyst for this “necessary” discussion, which sexual assault survivors are thanking him for in droves! I really can’t think of a more despicable way…

You might want to fix your comment by replacing “Black” with “Rapist.” Because last I checked, I as a Black woman don’t support rapists of any color. End of story. Fuck Parker, his rapist co-writer and people who support either of them simply because they’re Black. There’s plenty of amazing media and art coming from…

Yup. He doesn’t understand why people see him as a rapist and not as the Good Guy.

I’m not proud to admit it but when I heard Parker’s “I have nothing to apologize for.” I got so pissed at Union. Then I got pissed at Parker & co for trotting out the black woman to attempt to clean up the mess he made.

If you actually looked at the court case you would see he was let off because the girl had oral sex with him the night before. Rape culture got him off. His co-rapist was found guilty.

Let’s not leave out that he hired a PI to tail her and handed out her photo on campus. Getting people to yell “White girl cries rape!”

This reminds me of sheriff Darren White’s interview in Netflix’s documentary Audrie & Daisy. He dropped charges against the rapist that left his victim to freeze to death, despite his confession. In the film, he says that the boys are the only ones willing to move on with their lives and make something of themselves,…

For someone who keeps saying ‘it’s not about me,’ almost all of his statements are about himself, his feelings, his actions, his role as saviour of black people and apparently Aboriginal Australians as well.

He should’ve admitted to what he did and asked for forgiveness.

I didn’t see it here, but I think it was the GMA interview where he says (paraphrasing) he doesn’t have anything to feel guilty about because he was “exonerated” (that IS his word, which he’s using incorrectly) when he was found not guilty. When asked why it was okay to work with his alleged co-conspirator, his…

(As an aside about the actual film, the suggestion that his approach was to “subvert subvert subvert”—either as the co-writer or director or both—is interesting because the reviews all describe an ordinary studio film, very pretty, awash in all the predictable well-worn tropes including the infamous ahistorical…

Absolutely apologize, try to make amends to her family. When talking about it don’t whine about its effects on HIM, cuz you know, it’s ruining HIS life (poor boo-boo.) and now dare people keep bringing it up, because he’s moved on, can’t they see that?

I, and many other Black women who enjoy supporting Black art and Black people, specifically don’t want to support this man because he’s a rapist, not because he’s Black, and now for the added reason that he made a great true story into a wildly historically inaccurate torture porn fest, complete with creepily added…

First of all he could shut up about all the women in his life as if that excuses the awful thing he did to this poor woman. Because him talking about his daughters actually made me all the more horrified by the incident and his reaction to the past being brought up.

The one that got me the most angry was on The Steve Harvey Show when Parker tried to play himself off as the hero - he’s just getting people to pay attention to the rape epidemic because that is violence against women and if he has to rape women and use gratuitous rape scenes as a dramatic device to get people talking…

I feel sorry for all the other people who have put their time and effort into this film, only to have it be overshadowed by Parker’s sordid past. For me, personally, the whole project is tainted now.

I know it’s just a play on the song title, but the sad thing is that anxiety and depression leave one in a state of constantly pursuing happiness and never finding it. I hope he comes closer to finding whatever that is for him, after a great deal of struggle against the helplessness of that pursuit.

After a little time and with some help, hopefully he moves beyond shame and arrives at a place of pride for opening up about his mental illness, likely being an example to many others who suffer in silence.

I am hoping to be wrong, but are terrorists running his twitter?
