RE: In the Wake of Weinstein, Where are our Men?

in #manhood7 years ago

As more and more women are finally speaking out against their molesters, those that were silent for decades have found their voice and speak of the injustices they had to endure.

You are it is sickening that Hollywood let this crime perpetuate for so long. It was an open secret, everyone was doing it, the infamous casting couch was a reality not just a form of porn genre.

People in the entertainment industry was expected to barter their sexuality in exchange to getting roles and positions that they had the capacity to do.

Men turned a blind eye because it was expected. Because at that time it was the norm. Things are now changing and I am glad that there are some men who have denounced these sexual predators.

You are right we are here to protect and to stand up for the women we respect and love.

Great article. This should be highlighted and. Upvotedm

Though the truth is that it's not just Hollywood which has enabled this horrible situation. We are responsible for the culture that allowed it to thrive.

It's time for each and every one of us to take a stand.
