Amber, That's Hollywood! Run by the left. They do not all shun Woody Allen or Roman Polanski

Anita Hill was believed by the left , BJ Clinton accusers dismissed. etc.

So , did you talk to your father? He is well known. Why not?

"...after Election day last year. We needed a space to vent, to cry, to dream about starting a commune with Hillary Clinton and anthropomorphizing Tom Hardy into a dreamy horse we could ride into the sunset."

She was making a pretty good case till she got to here. Here she reveals that women are just as bad as men, and want to objectivize, control, and de-humanize men. We may simply not have as much power to do this as she would like, but we are no better.

And she uses anthropomorphize to mean the exact opposite: it means to give something human qualities. She wants to take away someone's humanity and turn him into a sexual fantasy figure over whom she and her friends have absolute control. THAT... is hypocrisy.

I’d like to hope James Woods would not have been interested in a 16 year old girl 5 years ago. I wish the quick quip she attributes to him didn’t sound exactly like something he would say. I love James Woods but he does prefer much younger women and I’m hoping he was being flippant at the time, maybe intoxicated, not serious, or she is not telling the truth.

However, different subject: here is the hypocrisy of Hollywood women. She goes to complain of boorish behavior by her fellow industry people, yet she jumps at the chance to portray sex and violence EVERY DAY in her business. As long as it’s for big money, boorishness or worse is GOOD. You can’t have it both ways. Hollywood couldn’t constantly provide T&A entertainment if women refused to play the parts.

Also, Hillary Clinton DESTROYS women who get in her way. She took down a child rape victim and laughed about it. She uses women for sex but any woman daring to tell the truth about her will be met with cruelty. Yet this stupid actress wants to join a commune with her? Willful stupidity.

Too often, they are questioned mercilessly about whether their side is legitimate.

Yes, that's how justice works - we don't automatically take the word of a woman and immediately jail whoever she accuses. People lie - and that includes women. Maybe the man she accuses did what she said, maybe he didn't. She's asking the rest of us to punish the man she accuses, so we will need to actually try to ascertain the facts and then make a decision. It may not always turn out right, but it's a better process than mindlessly accepting the word of every accuser.

During the election a sooty in Premiere magazine came out with three women detailing how Arnold was hands on and aggressive about sex with them on the set of one of his movies. We loved him and voted for him anyway.

Three women is a preponderance for my money.

For women in America who come forward with stories of harassment, abuse and sexual assault, there are not two sides to every story, however noble that principle might seem. Women do not get to have a side. They get to have an interrogation.

Abuse (physical and otherwise), stalking, assault and rape are crimes. Crimes need to be reported to the police. Does someone complain about grand theft or arson to HR or their manager? No.

Speaking as a woman who experienced sexual violence in my younger life- you have a sense of truth or not when other women talk about their experience(s). I believe her when she talks about the stage hand on set. There is an anger in her writing that rings true.

When she writes about James Wood it rings just like a person out to "get " someone else. It reads as a different kind of anger to me.

. Part of it includes the fact that she didn't/won't name the unknown stage hand. However, when it comes to the famous actor who is now speaking out as a republican, all of a sudden there is this sordid story of him trying to pick her up as a teenager. She is a rabid liberal. Coincidence? I think not.
