The Me Too Movement: The Sexual Harassment and Assault Thread

[Erzengel]

This isn't necessarily a hill I need to die on.

I forgot which female celebrity I was listening to on the radio and neither her or myself were/are defending Lauer but apparently she made it sound like most executives have a button to close their door, and it's for privacy, private calls, etc.

I don't doubt that someone like Lauer used it for nefarious purposes but the act of not having to get up to close the door when you have a call you don't want others in the office to listen to doesn't sound like an odd reason to have said button. I'm not an executive and I don't know any executives but it doesn't sound far fetched reason.

Edit: However, I do work in a small office, where frequently, people get up and close their door because of proximity to other workers, privacy when they are on the phone.

Cambridge don readmitted after sexual harassment

 

[Teelie]

I did not realize that "permanent" had been redefined as 2 years.

 

[terry78]

lol @ the removal "had not been agreed by Dr. Hutchinson". Most british backpedal ever.

McGregor denies second sexual assault allegation

Guess it is too much to escape from the thread's namesake.

He's still got pull.

Video: Two Women Confronted Harvey Weinstein At LES Bar & Got Thrown Out

The Organization is denying that he was invited.

 

[Donner]

How brain dead do you have to be to allow, nevermind invite, Weinstein to a gathering like that. And then to kick out the women who had a problem with it? He's a ****ing rapist!

 

[Sithborg]

Cancel culture run amok though...

 

[Snow Queen]

I'm sure the serial rapist who liked to use his power to extort sex out of young actors without much power was just at this event for young actors to socialize. Of course.

These pieces of crap that invite these known predators into public spaces are their friends, who themselves seem to be fine with such behavior. Which means they themselves are probably guilty of it.

It both astounding and sad how rare it is predators actually face justice. Three cases and nothing. Much sympathy for the loved ones of the accuser who passed away.

 

[Sithborg]

Looks like the Vic Mignogna case is continuing. Lets see what was filed today.



Looks like more fun reading.

And it looks like Funimation, 1/4 of the defendents, have requested $169K in compensation. And there are three other defendants yet. Looking pretty expensive.

An...interesting comment about John Stamos. A few people responding indicate similar stories in Florida.

It sounds like their Lasseter policy.

I'm going to throw this on this thread because not only is it obvious child abuse, but there is a creepy af incestuous vibe going on.

 

[Schlosser85]

That's creepy af.

For one, it's way overbearing and controlling, and for two I seriously side-eye any father who's that obsessed with his daughter's hymen.

 

[Teelie]

He's pretty ill-informed too if he thinks a broken hymen is a sign of sexual activity. Those can break for reasons completely unrelated to sex or penetration of any kind.

There's not been too much about T.I. that has ever made me think he was all that bright.

But she goes unaccompanied to the proctologist.

So, back to the Vic case of entertainment. It looks like the court just granted a subpoena on one of Vic's lawyers. Which, is, ummm. interesting.
