Has anyone noticed something a bit odd about the actresses accusing Harvey Weinstein?
The trash talk TV floodgates have burst wide open with women who now accuse Harvey Weinstein of sexual harassment. But has anyone noticed something very odd about this group. With a few rare (and aging or aged or very aged) A-listers, the accusers are all women who never succeeded in Hollywierd.
We are hearing nothing from the major movie actresses, and I think the reason is obvious. These women, now household names, did what aspiring actresses (and actors) have done for 90 years. When they were fighting for roles early in their careers, and all the others up for the roles were willing to go down for anyone in the casting system, they did the Horizontal Mambo too.
And of course, once they were into the system, they couldnt suddenly become reconstituted virgins and stop laying down on the job.
The reason they are not complaining now? They are still active and dont want to be thought of as simply very high paid, very beautiful, and somewhat talented women (and men) who sold their bodies for dollars and fame.
Or if they are War Criminal Jane Fonda, who claims she just learned about Weinstein a year ago, they also dont want the world to know these Womens Rights Champions were willing to stay silent, not tell the world what they did to get their movie roles, and sacrificed the next generations of their sisterhood for their own fame and fortune,
Theyre all hookers. Only the price is different.
Holly-weirders travel in packs, like wild dogs.
Great posting.
Plenty of actresses that Weinstein did actually work hard to promote didn’t last on the A-list. Gretchen Mol and Blake Lively are examples.
Actually hookers do not pretend to not be hookers.
Disgusting post. But just what I would expect from a Weinstein lawyer-want-to-be.
“That and getting the attacks off of Democrats and onto Republicans is what the strategy is.”
Not to mention a much bigger goal - the expansion of the “toxic masculinity” meme and the further castration of men.
Rose McGowan was hot in the 1990s. Now she is yesterday’s IT girl. She has to keep her name in the spotlight somehow.
However I do not see the adults who prostituted themselves for Hollywood success as victims.
Maybe victims of their own stupidity or moral depravity. But they knew what they were doing and made the bargain.
Maybe it was worth it to them if they got what they wanted, but they are in no position to preach morality to anyone.
Many of us have known for a long time that the pretensions of some kind of moral high ground, coming from Hollywood (of all places), are as hollow, false, hypocritical, and depraved as anything coming from that moral cesspool--maybe even more. It is particularly odious when these people get involved in politics.
The children are another matter altogether.
LIBERALS force store clerks to be open targets for criminals. Not Conservatives. We respect life.
Being that I work in construction, I have seen quite a lot. I have seen good men used and abused, their talents exploited and their experience ignored by the suits and ties. It happens often enough to be a tragedy.
BINGO!
I predict a lot of old actresses are about to experience come backs.
I disagree. There are some well-known actresses who accused Harvey Weinstein:
Yes, beautifully said, Strac6.
“Working hard” being the operative phrase.//
Of course. There was a point where they had a choice to either walk away or prostitute themselves to see their names on theater marquees. Game was more important than virtue.
Sorry you are a Jane Fonda fan who has trouble with facts.
Is this the same Bekinsale who was in
Republicans, Get in My Vagina ?

She may be pretty on the outside I suppose.
I hate to break it to naive freepers but most actresses are not whores. Just because some folks wish it to be true, doesn’t make it so.
I don’t claim a sterling character.
But even I have standards.
