No kidding. How do so many men do BS like this. I can safely say a though of that nature has never even crossed my mind. So gross.

What is so hard about this:

Don't touch people who don't want to be touched. Not sure if a person wants to be touched? Then don't touch them. Anyone who wants to see your dick will (and need only, apparently...) ask.

The number of people who've followed the above statement AND seen their careers and lives destroyed by sexual misconduct allegations is exactly zero. Act accordingly.

The only surprising thing here is that it took this long for something about Simmons being abusive to come to light

Not that there's anything necessarily wrong with that I suppose (minus all the affairs), but now pair that news with all this stuff, and that seems like a pretty sleazy, gross place to work at.

T.J. Miller Accused of Sexually Assaulting and Punching a Woman

https://www.thedailybeast.com/silico...nching-a-woman

Here is his (and his wife's) response: https://mobile.twitter.com/rosepetal...55950864781313

I'm not shocked by this. There have been rumours for awhile that he's a creep.

Pretty. Strong response from his wife. Sounds like this may be one of the few false flags.

Did you read the article? Something happened that night that the victim did not like and she told her room mates the next day and they corroborate it that she told them.

But this is still pretty tricky, no? They were having consensual sex before the roughhousing got too rough. And there is only one victim/accuser here.

This also sounds like the Jian Ghomeshi case. There were several victims with similar stories against Jian Ghomeshi however.

Yeah that is what it reminded me of and I am interested if there will be more coming but I tend to believe this was non-consenual

Quote:
“She looked like she had been through a rough night—I recall seeing bruises [on Sarah],” Duffy said. “One roommate asked if she wanted to go to the police. Others offered to take her to the hospital, given how she looked.”
If her response to her roommates wasn't this is just something I am into then I think it's reasonable to say that something non-consensual happened.

LOS ANGELES – Olympic gold medallist McKayla Maroney says the group that trains U.S. Olympic gymnasts forced her to sign a confidential settlement to keep allegations of sexual abuse by the team’s doctor secret.

Maroney filed a lawsuit Wednesday in Los Angeles against the U.S. Olympic Committee and USA Gymnastics. The suit also seeks damages from Michigan State University, where the team’s doctor, Larry Nassar, worked for decades.

The lawsuit alleges that the settlement was illegal and “for the purpose of silencing a known victim of Nassar.”

Violet Paley @VioletPaley Cute #TIMESUP pin James Franco. Remember the time you pushed my head down in a car towards your exposed penis & that other time you told my friend to come to your hotel when she was 17? After you had already been caught doing that to a different 17 year old?
11:25 PM - Jan 7, 2018


Sarah Tither-Kaplan @sarahtk Hey James Franco, nice #timesup pin at the #GoldenGlobes , remember a few weeks ago when you told me the full nudity you had me do in two of your movies for $100/day wasn't exploitative because I signed a contract to do it? Times up on that!


April Wolfe @AWolfeful
After my profile of Franco was published, some people reached out to tell me about encounters with him. I knew a story was being worked on by some reporters, but these folks got impatient. It’s hard to watch someone who hurt you be lavished w/ praise. https://twitter.com/newsweek/status/950386670951714816 …

French women weigh in

Quote:
The revered French actor Catherine Deneuve has hit out at a new “puritanism” sparked by sexual harassment scandals, declaring that men should be “free to hit on” women.

Deneuve was one of about 100 female French writers, performers and academics who wrote an open letter deploring the wave of “denunciations” that has followed claims that the Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein raped and sexually assaulted women over decades...

“Instead of helping women this frenzy to send these (male chauvinist) ‘pigs’ to the abattoir actually helps the enemies of sexual liberty – religious extremists and the worst sort of reactionaries,” the collective of women who signed the letter said.

“As women we do not recognise ourselves in this feminism, which beyond denouncing the abuse of power takes on a hatred of men and of sexuality.”

They insisted that women were “sufficiently aware that the sexual urge is by its nature wild and aggressive. But we are also clear-eyed enough not to confuse an awkward attempt to pick someone up with a sexual attack.”

this thing is like watching a nuclear war where the missiles are just firing.

With the second lady though, did she sign a contract that told her that she would have to get naked for the films.

Frankly she didn't have to sign the contract.
