Seems like the latest trend in Hollywood is to accuse people of sexual harassment and crimes. It is really quite disturbing. I’m not trying to downplay what many of these actors and actresses have gone through however the timing is suspect. Many of these women – and a few men – are being heralded as heroes. I think not. They are coming forward NOW after years of silence and their perpetrator victimizing other people. Hero, they are not.

    I have no sympathy for any of the Hollywood types screaming sexual molestation etc. Any woman who prostitutes herself as they do in nude scenes, scanty clothing, gutter speech and in general less than acceptable behavior gets what they sow. I for one am not interested in hearing about nor seeing them claim someone assaulted them. Too bad. Clean your act up and then maybe you will be taken seriously.

    Sex were promises sex is the oldest warm currency and manipulation known to man kind. This latest fad of perceived Heroic behavior is just another form of the same manipulation. Following the old “SAW”, in politics or show business.. “any publicity is good publicity”. If they are more in the public eye, then they are more marketable, and can gain money and opportunity. If the offender has to pay them, well so much the better. For the offended anyway.
    No doubt the predators in that world use this to their advantage on the casting couch, etc… They know what trades for money and influence as well.
    The issue isn’t really with the offender, although what they did was wrong, if they did it. If the offended was willing to play that game to get what they wanted, or thought they wanted, it’s as much their fault as the offender. If they were young and didn’t know way better, where was the adult, the ones that were supposed to be protecting them? Were they willing to prostitute their child for money? Surely not! (of course.. some are aren’t they). If you are willing to wear clothes, and do scenes that put to at risk, for the sake of market share and money .. well then .. When you get outsmarted, or age past the point that anybody wants to see you like that.. whose fault is that ?
    The whole cultural idea that someone else is ALWAYS at fault, and never the person who claims to be the offended.. is ludicrous. But then.. that industry has more than it’s share of liberals doesn’t it. You get what you pay for.. and as a rule I will not pay to watch them, same goes with pro sports now for me .. You would be surprised how much quieter of our evenings are than they used to be .. TV Off .. nothing to see.. Just reading and winding down.
