It's sad how people feel they can take advantage of aspiring artists. You hear so much about how women are sexualised in the industry, but it's almost like men are overlooked and for what reason?

The story from the men's perspective is never told. This is mostly due to the stigmatization that homosexuality saw until only recently. I made my first movie Grinder out of some of my stories and many young actresses have made the same comment. It is also heartening for them to see that men deal with the same issues and none of us are alone.
It's just such a shame that all of this is step under the rug with the other fear that if you say something it will cost you your career. This is definitely something that people should talk about more and shed light on the situation that is going on.
it happens everywhere. What is important is that no one feels alone in having a human experience.
Totally agree with you. Unfortunately, it is very much a cycle and has happened for centuries in the arts.
