Sexual harrassment in Hollywood

Sexual harrassment especially in Hollywood right now.

What are your thoughts?

One of mine is if some of these women had spoken up years earlier, maybe some other women would not have been subjected to this abuse.

But none of them did ....

However, I am starting to take a look at this in a different light. Everyone and her/his uncle is screaming abuse.

Getting bored with the stories coming out tbh. Why wait this long to announce it?

Hate to be the one to tell you Bluey, but we did all this historic sexual abuse stuff weeks ago on here, discussed it ad nauseam.

Probably before you joined?

If you search the keywords youll find the threads.

Thanks Ruthio,
We have more happenings here now, and that is why I started the thread, but I forgot to look see if anything like this was on before...

No problem, hopefully Supervisor will close the thread.

Re: Sexual harrassment in Hollywood

This harassment has been going on ever since Cinema was invented
iIt was called 'Getting a foot on the Ladder' sleeping with the Director or Producer was the only way to get a good part in a Film
Very few female stars or starlets had the courage to refuse.

Years ago it was common knowledge that Sofia Loren did that and Gracie Fields and many others as well to get a major part in a film.

These days you become famous on your own merits,

Women didn't like to speak out in the past, I am glad they are doing so now.

Since the inception of Hollywood, everyone knew it was happening but turned a blind eye. Now it's a big deal. The era of the new puritans?
