I used to live in Ukrainian Village. The traditional ethnic makeup of the area is obvious. As a matter of fact, it used to be impossible to buy a house in the area unless you spoke Ukrainian. That has eased up since the 90's, but there are still plenty of people there who are racist as hell. I’ll never forget being…

It can be very predatory

I’ve heard of him. He was more active as a writer/director in the 80’sand 90’s, but he still produces. He was also a creep in the 80’s and 90’s, and seems to be even worse.

I recently read an essay by a man who was raped as a child by a trusted family friend. As an adult, he investigated his assault, since there were many blank spots in his memory. At a library, he found an old phone directory. When he came to the listing with his abuser’s name, he lost control of his bowels.

When I was in my early 20’s, I did something similar to a friend. Except, I’m a woman and he was a man. Because he was a healthy 22 year-old, his body responded. But he grabbed my hand and told me it was wrong because he had a girlfriend. Mainly, it was also because he didn’t like me that way, and had no desire to…

He’s notorious for really gross sexual harassment. He even harassed Amy Schumer during a flight-google it. Spy magazine was writing about his antics in the 80’s, and the guy continued to get movies. He needs to get hit by a bus.

I agree-it very likely is illegal. The city department in charge of filming contracts may even stipulate that food used for productions be discarded. I say put away the pitchforks until the production crew can have their say.

Black African designer, so what was HE thinking? Although I’m not sure if you can create an iconic (sexy) costume from a Boertrekker apron and bonnet.

Yeah, I posted on FB but intentionally did not go into settings, details, etc. because a. some men (including, presumably some of my FB friends) actually get off on reading sexual assault stories and b. judgey assholes will follow up with the inevitable “why didn’t you report it???” comments.

Also it’s GQ’s unofficial “I’m Not Gay” style-guide.

They are going to be AMAZING! In addition to the symbolic value of selecting black artists, the Obamas have such excellent taste in the arts.

At worst, it’s poor spreadsheet design. OK, we’ll put Rape and Creepy DMs on separate worksheet tabs.

Silly women. Privacy is only OK for men sending rape threats.

You’re kidding-nothing from Get Out? Walter and Georgina would be a great couple’s costume for African Americans. And a white girl would just have to put her hair in a ponytail, wear a white blouse and carry a box of Fruit Loops for a terrifying outfit.

I found it! Truly cringe-inducing read: https://tressiemc.wordpress.com/2013/08/27/when-your-brown-body-is-a-white-wonderland/

And him fucking his kid’s nanny, and nearly ruining Skip Gate’s reputation...

I wish I could locate this essay—it’s by a black woman (an academic) who noticed that white strangers feel really comfortable touching her, sometimes quite intimately.

Stop making me love him more

Also, it’s stupid.

And the final straw was him partially removing his pants in our break room (he claimed to be tucking in his shirt, and became upset when I told him the bathroom was right next to him and had a door that shut).
