Kevin Space Invader

So they going to stop showing his movies now then?

Just send me a link for the bra burning dvd, and I will get ahead and ordered it.
 
The trouble is that unwanted attention is constant. It beggars belief that you think touching someone, especially on the bum, unannounced and without consent is okay.
Even if as a one off its seen as ok, it’s not a one off.
Woman are sexualised and treated as such from the moment they leave their house. The cars slowing down to ogle her, the person at the coffee shop talking about the things he would do to her to his friends, her boss objectifying her and taking more concern in Her appearance than her job, the supplier who calls her darling and flirts on the phone, the drunkard on the train putting an arm round her trying to chat her up, the Mass media blaming her for being raped as She wore a short skirt and then finally the man in the pub patting her bum.
None of these things are OK and you can’t look at acts in isolation and say they are ok as for many women out there acts aren’t an isolated thing.

I never said it was ok, you've made that up. I said it happens all the time. You must have been out and had a drunk woman/man touch your ass, I bet you didn't cry sexual assault though. I also said it should be distanced from more serious life changing events.

I don't even know why you then randomly started talking about women, when my initial statement barely even mentioned women.

Lol, getting quite defensive there?
This whole topic is gender based, either we’re talking about male perpetrators or female victims.
Yes, i have. I’ve had hands going up my kilt every time I wear one (though has been two years since I last wore one) and I agree that in itself wouldn’t be what I’d consider sexual assault.
I was just making the point that whilst a tap on the bum may be nothing and simply something that can be laughed off, if that’s the 10th sexualised encounter you’ve been subjected to that day then it can get quite tiresome. I think we, as men, look at each individual act in isolation whereas for the woman subjected to it that’s far from the case. I think that’s worth considering. Simply saying “cheer up darling, it’s just banter” doesn’t really wash when it’s the nth time she’s been sexually touched that day, and this happens every day.
We, as men, need to sort our behaviour out more than women do

Even it out by touching just as many men.

If you think your behaviour is wrong, why are you continuing to do it?

Why are you advocating sexist double standards?

Why are you pretending all men are the same entity?

I'm pretty sure that the answer to all those questions is that you're very sexist, which is very fashionable nowadays. "They're all the same" is the most basic belief of any form of irrational prejudice. That's a shame, because there was a valid point buried by it.
 
At the risk of being flamed, I really don’t see the big deal here.

From what I can tell it’s someone complaining (and presumably seeking a seriously hefty settlement) for someone making unwanted, and unsuccessful, advances 33 years ago.

So innocent then. Another trial by social media ruining a career.

Embarrassing for Netflix and house of cards.


Ruined his career? You really have to be kidding, guys have been forming a line around the block to say that he importuned, or touched them, going back years.
I could care less whether Spacey did or didn’t, but I don’t think that the prosecutor pulling the plug proves him innocent, or makes it likely that he’s as pure as driven snow.
If you believe that Spacey never made unwanted sexual advances to any male, then you probably believe that Fred and Rose West got a bad deal as well.
