If Gal Gadot came out and said she doesn't date because men cant be trusted to not rape, would the same people agreeing with Cavill agree with her?

Brie Larson, the girl who is going to play Captain Marvel, said this.

I live in the Bay area and worked at a hospital. A very liberal city with a very liberal work place. When the me too thing started a bunch of nurses were talking about how all these chicks were just gold diggers and one was saying she feared her son would never date because pretty soon its gonna be sexual harassment to ask a girl out. And another said romance is going to die as it becomes "may I please now touch your arm? Is it OK if i now place my lips on yours? Etc (she went all the way through orgasm with this)"

I thought it was crazy but apparently it's happening.


fortunately the sane women in the usa dont pay attention to this bs and enjoy the courtship process. the problem is that men pick the wrong women all the damn time and dont seem to learn, they get attached with looks quickly when its obvious that the woman is bad news.

False equivalency


lmfao how so? Given the how rape is still a very real problem in this country for women, especially when it comes to getting a conviction, she would actually have a basis to her opinion

Cavill just comes off as a redpill burnout with this

Here's the whole exchange, for anyone who, unlike me, has no time to thumb through all that drivel.

At this point, theres a not-totally-joking reminder that theres one and a half minutes left in the interview. I ask Cavill what hes learned from the #MeToo moment were in.

Ive been fortunate enough to not be around the kind of people who behave that way, he says. To my memory theres been no moments where I look back and think, Ooh, OK, maybe someone shouldnt have gone through that. I know there have been situations with people Ive worked with being perhaps overfamiliar with some of the actresses. But, Ive always walked up to them and said, Hey, are you all right? Thats creepy.

Have the revelations made you reflect on your own behaviour with women? I like to think that Ive never been like that. I think any human being alive today, if someone casts too harsh a light on anything, you could be like, Well, OK, yeah, when you say it like that, maybe.

But its such a delicate and careful thing to say because theres flirting which, for example, in a social environment is in context and is acceptable. And that has been done to me as well, in return.

Stuff has to change, absolutely, he adds, addressing mens behaviour. Its important to also retain the good things, which were a quality of the past, and get rid of the bad things.

Theres something wonderful about a man chasing a woman. Theres a traditional approach to that, which is nice. I think a woman should be wooed and chased, but maybe Im old-fashioned for thinking that.

Its very difficult to do that if there are certain rules in place. Because then its like: Well, I dont want to go up and talk to her, because Im going to be called a rapist or something. So youre like, Forget it, Im going to call an ex-girlfriend instead, and then just go back to a relationship, which never really worked. But its way safer than casting myself into the fires of hell, because Im someone in the public eye, and if I go and flirt with someone, then who knows whats going to happen?

Now? Now you really cant pursue someone further than, No. Its like, OK, cool. But then theres the, Oh whyd you give up? And its like, Well, because I didnt want to go to jail?

According to BuzzFeed (who wrote the article trying to prove they never happen) said it's the very small margin of over 3%

Meaning almost in 1/20 accusations could be false.

That's a lot.

That's about many Mixed people there are in the United States proportion wise.

If hes going up to a woman and her first reaction is this guy is probably a rapist maybe he should work on his approach

Yes that is also a huge problem.

But again, these stats are for proven false. Not for ones that couldn't be proved either way, so it may be more than that.

Or, you could push for means to curtail false accusations and not immediately believe someone when they come out with claims, instead waiting for some proof and then switching to believe them.

Did you see the Chris Hardwick stuff?

2012 Ministry of Justice reports, I'm assuming the number is slightly higher now given how cases showcasing false accusations have risen.

Regardless it is over 5% now

Speaking from someone who was falsely accused of sexual harrassment so that some girl could get out of her assigned seating to go sit next to her friends, I know from experience how quickly the world can sink in around you.

But keep living in your bubble buddy. After seeing all that you post on this site, you are pretty good at it.

Maybe not fire people or kick them out of college as soon as an accusation starts and instead wait for an actual trial?

There was a case where two people reported the other person for raping them because they got scared of being kicked out of school when the other person reported them.

It's ridiculous.

For things that breached the code, not an accusation of something that hasn't been proven one way or the other yet.

Imagine get banned from Gamefaqs for someone telling a moderator you sent them racial slurs on another forum without providing evidence.

After it's been determined they actually did something.

Title IX allowed people to be kicked out merely via the accusation.
