Weeds star Elizabeth Perkins holds sign naming actor James Woods (trunc)

Actresses Elizabeth Perkins and Frances Fisher were among those who came out on Sunday to take part in a #MeToo march in Hollywood, with the Weeds star holding up a sign naming the actor James Woods.

Hundreds of people turned out for Take Back The Workplace and #Metoo Survivors marches to support victims of sexual assault and harassment, inspired by a social media campaign that has portrayed such abuse as a pervasive feature of American life.

Perkins marched at the front of the line alongside former local Fox News reporter Lauren Sivan, who is among the women who allege they were sexually harassed by disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein.

The Take Back the Workplace March and the #MeToo Survivors March joined forces in the heart of Hollywood, near the entrance to the Dolby Theater where the Academy Awards take place.

They walked side by side past the tourists, costume shops, strip clubs and a man wearing a 'Whiskey Made Me Do It' T-shirt to gather for a rally of rousing speeches from the likes of Harvey Weinstein accuser Lauren Sivan and Oscar-winning producer Cathy Schulman.

'Not in pots, not in plants, keep your junk inside your pants,' the crowd chanted for a few minutes, before shifting gears to: 'Harvey Weinstein is a joke, women workers just got woke.'

Other chants included, 'Survivors united, we'll never be divided' and 'Whatever we wear, wherever we go, "yes" means "yes" and "no" means "no".'

As she marched along, Perkins, 56, at one point held up a handwritten sign that said: 'James Woods #MeToo.'

In September, actress Amber Tamblyn called Woods 'predatory', saying he tried to pick her and a friend up at a Las Vegas bar when she was 16. Responding, Woods accused Tamblyn of lying.

Full title: Weeds star Elizabeth Perkins holds sign naming actor James Woods as she joins hundreds of women in stand against sexual abuse at the #MeToo Survivors march in Hollywood

So now we have people conflating Conservatives with sexual predators just because they don't like their politics. Leftist scum.

Being in a bar would most of the time indicate you were of age.

Guys try and pick up women in bars what is new.

Sad that hollywood ignores this issue against children for decades but now are all about abuse now that women are speaking out. They ridicule and ignore the likes of Cory Feldman but then march and support each other when they start accusing.

Every drunk or sober chick I ever tried to pick up in a bar I naturally assumed they were old enough to be in there. It's the bouncer or bartender's job to check ID, not mine.

Besides, my mother always taught me that it was not polite to ask a woman her age........

Networking. I'll bet she passed out her business cards in a unique way.

Before this is over with, feminists will be charging male gynecologists with sexual assaults for conducting routine examinations when they were teenagers years ago.

...

That’s why the Left attacked Mike Pence for the way he behaves in public with women not his wife. He gives no opportunity for feminists to sleep their way to the top.

Apparently 40 + years of public indoctrination has failed to
convince the American male that it is his own gender that is the real crime.

Sixteen and hanging out in a Las Vegas bar.

Woods criticized the theme of one of her recent movies (homo theme) and she hits back with the pick up bit.

Non credibility much??

Vegas doesn’t permit minors on the Strip at night. 18+. Curfew for minors.

From what I read it sounded like Woods made a pass at that 16 year old not realizing her real age, and when she told him she was 16 he make that off color joke “even better” and WALKED AWAY. So how is that sexual assault? There’s a HUGE difference between verbally making a pass at someone and physically assaulting someone and this woman is going around as if Woods physically assaulted her when he didn’t and that’s if it even happened! It seems like everything else, the left is now once again twisting meaning, merely speaking is now considered physical assault and I assume next they will equate merely looking at a woman as physical assault, and by the way, when are they going to out Joe Biden and the 10 billion videos out there showing his paws all over under age girls, especially one video that quite believably sounds like he is telling a 13 year old girl that he is horny. Listen to this with headphones on, and tell that is not what he is saying.........

Ask these ‘woke’ women if they now believe that Bill Clinton engaged in similar behavior as Governor.

Ask these ‘woke’ women if they now belive that Gloria Steinem sold them out when she defended Bill and said that the first grope is FREE.

Ask these ‘woke’ women if they thought it was demeaning to women when one of their ilk said she’d gladly get down on her knees and give Bill Clinton oral servicing because of his stance for abortion.

Woke is a joke.

Having breakfast, with 5 women, two guys. Made statement about woods trying to pick up 16 year old in a Vegas bar. Unanimous from all at this table: what’s a 16 year old doing in a Vegas bar?

“he tried to pick her and a friend up at a Las Vegas bar when she was 16”

Now that’s horrible. LOL

The left is now overplaying their hand as usual. They can’t resist using everything as a bludgeon against their so-called enemies.

Now the issue will become trivialized until people get sick of hearing about it.

When you accuse every man of being a sexual predator, you lose the argument.

Amber’s husband is David Cross, 21 years older.

Maybe chasing older guys was a thing for her.

The logic of that question is unassailable.

That's why I like working in a wine bar: no one under 21, and a large percentage of patrons are adult women (who are friendly and good tippers).
