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.

Ambers husband is David Cross, 21 years older.
Maybe chasing older guys was a thing for her.
She obviously prefers older men.
Here comes the tidal wave of false accusations.
Been there.
The is all about the power of women to lord it over men, to lie and get away with it, and to have no consequences.
Most women want men to pursue them.
This is about women being able to say maybe,or even “yes”, then later to walk it back and say “I meant no”.
They get the entire power in any encounter.
But then, when men become cautious, after being burned, they will complain that there are no “real men” out there.
Will all the ‘Marches’ ever go out of style? I am soooooo done with hearing about all the Marches. I guess they are fading anyway as they had to combine two ‘Marches’ to make it a bigger ‘March’. Does anyone pay any attention to any march anymore??
I should have made clear that the women I am referring to in the post are leftist, “feminist” women.
Most women do not feel or act this way.
Now this is shocking. Trying to hook up with women in an over 21 bar. And one was only 16. I remember that accusation and Woods sounded skeezy if that was what he really said (and it sounds like him) but he did nothing wrong except invite them to Vegas. They didnt go with him and nothing happened. I love James Woods and I dont see a problem here. Talking, without any obscene crudeness, is not harassment. And you are 16 in an adult bar, and Dad aint there. What do you expect might happen?
As if there aren’t lesbian doctors, gynos, and nurses.
An RN that I knew said that it was horrible working at her hospital because several bitchy lesbian doctors had soured morale in the department. They had ex-exs working there, possibly workplace romance with subordinates, etc.
Also have a friend who’s a waiter, worked for an alcoholic lesbian shift manager who had dlept with many of the female waitresses and fired them when the romance soured.
She claimed it was a restaurant, and he wanted to take her & her friend to Vegas. Which I interpret that they were not in Vegas at the time she claims this occurred.
Bottom line though, is the fact that this is really an attack against him for his political beliefs, not what she claims he did. Last time I looked it was not harassment to show interest in a woman. There may come a point in time when that interest may develop into harassment, but if that was the extent of her claim that is not harassment. This is where they are doing a real injustice to those who legitimately are victims, which will eventually create a backlash that they will regret.
Great point. I wonder if James Woods will point this out in his classic humor style.
That’s kind of a stretch to say they all expected to sleep their way to the top.
Monsters like Harvey Wnestein put those conditions in place......and even promiscuous starlets should have the option to say no when Harvey is forcing hispeni into ther mouths.
In casinos I know they don’t allow minors in certain areas

She always gave off a bad vibe. I tried to like her in Joan of Arcadia, mainly due to Joe Mantegna, but couldn’t. So, she’s gone from an under aged bar skank to jumping on the lesbian wagon. Yeah, bad vibes from the beginning.
Since when is trying to get lucky in a bar especially one in Vegas a crime
I find it amazing that while there have been powerful women in all aspects of the entertainment world for decades, no woman has been accused by either a man or other woman, and we know there were a goodly number of dykes in power on both sides of the camera, some of them absolutely as disgusting as the worst of the male offenders.
Oh well, that's liberalism.
She’s one nasty skank if even half of what she said in the article is true about her getting, uh, well, in polite terms hot and bothered when they first met. He was nearly twice her age.

Lol. Hysteria run amok. Lived crazy, mixed up lives and now they’re looking for someone to blame.
Scripture was way ahead of its time in portraying some women frankly as SEXUAL PREDATORS. See: Proverbs.
The “Who, ME?” shtick is just another one of this type’s weapons.
