Current Events > 'it took tons of women to take down weinstein, only 1 man to take kevin spacey'

(+) Yeah! (+)

Do you agree with the frustration this woman is putting forth? This was a person texting npr panelists.

She said "doesn't this mean men's voices are heard more?"

The panel was discussing the effect of Kevin Spacey thing and #metoo and other cases with males as the victims.

Then they went on about how hollywood has a problem with people in power preying on minors.

It seems like it took tons of women and 1 man to take down Kevin Spacey.

Imagine if this allegation came out a year ago.

if it wasnt for the tons of women taking down weinstein, nobody would have given a shit about kevin spacey. the weinstein case opened the floodgates for hollywood sexual abuse accusations

Do you go out of your way to find stuff that will trigger you

It might be true in this one particular example, but it doesn't mean that in general men's voices are heard more when it comes to sexual assault/abuse.

do you know what NPR is?

but see, this is an actual thread with participants

except for you, you literally added nothing to this topic other than showing us this topic triggered you?

Wasn't the person who took down Kevin Spacey a 14 year old at the time he was assaulted? I feel like that makes a big difference.

Maybe it's because of homophobia.
