If I was Aziz I would double down with saying, I apologized, I felt bad that I didn't understand her non verbal signals. Leave it at that.

It's a tough call, on one hand I want him to sue her because what she did was wrong and it can reflect badly on him. It is ironic because he just released a book a year or so ago called "Modern Romance". So given this fact and given the court of social media opinion is clearly swinging in the favor of women right now, he might get trampled just for speaking up and calling out this horsecrap. I don't think right now she will be raked over the coals because people are so focused on demonizing the actions of men right now. (This is kind of what I was trying to get at in my posts that there are two things going on here). Yes I think that is one way to go, apologizing and saying he did not read her verbal cues....on the other hand I would not react that way to the article, but I would be hard pressed to answer how I would react to it now.

They're all working for the best benefit of themselves. The only way that there is any filter out is if these celebrities, men and woman get caught doing the very thing that they are crying out against. Ie Streep or Oprah get caught on camera drunkenly calling a police officer "Suger %%%%".


Agreed.


this might sound scornful, but whatever. But Jamie Lee Curtis should have come forward or worked with Eliza to come forward and supported her openly. This is a 12 year old girl being harmed. To me Jamie Lee talking about talking a motherly role on the set rings as a bit hypocritical. And depending on when Eliza confided in her, it might have been before the ability to prosecute had expired.

Sadly instead, it reads like those terrible cases of child molestation where the other parents doesn't believe the child or ignores it.

To me and my cynic alert badge is flashing, Jamie Lee's co-opt piece is pure and simple spin. If she had been a "Mother" when Eliza confided in her, she should have gone to the police or Eliza's parents or anything.

She might have saved Dushka years of self medication and pain.

Agreed.
I have responded in red, thanks for answering those questions I appreciate it.
