Accountability in Entertainment • Page 23

This is also a point I’ve tried to bring up with a lot of people I know. Writing off a woman for some kind of amorphous claims about not being nice while being fine with tons of men with these reputations is the worst.

 

It's a double standard in every way of life:

Men are assertive, women are pushy.

Men are virile, women are slutty.

etc...

 

I’m in a singles group on FB for a convention I go to (mostly to keep tabs on people to avoid at this point), and there’s a huge thread right now full of men agreeing with Henry Cavill’s statement and making other disgusting statements about women. It never ceases to amaze me that they will be so brazen even in a group where their goal is to find a date. So so gross.

 

his language is a huuuuuuge red flag. he can't stand that now there's "rules" about it and he loves the "chase" because he's "traditional" like women are some how the prey. no joke.. I can't believe anyone has reiterate this this but its not hard to talk/flirt to women without sexually harassing them

 

i mean it was a direct quote but ok

 

Bluuuuugh.

 

Yeesh. Take the L super creep.

 

pretty sure that dude admitted to getting into acting just to be famous, cancel him

 

You know what I never worry about? Being called a rapist or something.

 

Hopefully they listen and hire a trans person

 

I’m honestly shocked that she left the film.

 

forreal, her initial statement to the backlash seemed like she didn't give a fuck

 

Hoping she actually learned but my gut says it's because it would hurt her career

 

I haven't followed the Scarlett story too closely, has she been getting a lot more backlash than other non-trans actors that have played trans characters?

 

Well then burn it all down

 

Just more publicly/ people are starting to actually listen
Plus part of it is she's a high profile actress

But trans people have always spoken they're just getting heard maybe kinda sometimes

Ok thanks. Wasn't sure if there was more to the Scarlett backlash or if it was just being heard more now than in past situations.

 

I think her previous track record with stuff like Ghost in the Shell didn’t help things.

 

Zach and Kumail being complicit would break my heart, not that that's what matters

 

never liked TJ. he seemed like that annoying hs drama kid

also always think of this embarrassing photo him and his wife

 

What was the outcome of this?? I see this was 7 months ago, did anything else come to light??

 

i don't think anything really happened. he's still booking tours across the country even after drunkenly calling in a bomb threat

 

And appearing on podcasts. Fuck Doug Benson
