While I don't believe the notion that she "caused the second downfall of G4", this is certainly an attempt at retaining some relevance. Twitter is a cesspool though, so she'll still have tons of people in her corner.

They're not intelligent decisions, not logical decisions and while she can make those choices the older men that go after these young women are definitely taking advantage of them

Also taking a hyper individualistic stance that people shouldn't at least watch out for one another is why so many people grow up without any sense of belonging or community

Stuff has to change, absolutely, Cavill said, before adding: Theres something wonderful about a man chasing a woman 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.
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?

Bad take but it highlights an important issue in that if people stop becoming stalkers because they're afraid of going to jail then mission accomplished.

well, it's not the worst take about metoo i've ever seen....

yeah it's kinda bad, but not worth trying to cancel a guy over, and neither is him dating a 19 year old when he was over 30

apparently he dated Gina Carano too though? yikes lol

But everything he said is true.

You can't ask someone out anymore. You run the risk of them going fucking Hulk on your life, screaming that you're a stalker raper and getting your ass thrown in jail. Nobody is interested in social discourse anymore. They think everybody else is out to get them and anybody who wants something wholly banal or just to ask a question is a murderous rapist, and in this case a pedophile because they're interested in someone 'too young' based off of an arbitrary standard of "life stages"

There's watching out for each other and there's infantalizing people to the point they don't know how to be adults and any question, any confrontation causes them to freak out inappropriately, labeling whoever it is something that they're not.

Quit infantalizing women. Let them be their own woman. Allow them to be 'challenged' in the world and make decisions on their own. If someone is too old for them or they feel they're being manipulated, let them make the decision to say No. Quit saying No for them. If they need help, be there for them but quit strong arming them out of experiences

And quit demonizing men. It's nearly as patronizing to men to say they're all degenerate monsters preying on women as it is to say women can't be trusted to make their own decisions

I can't imagine and have no desire to date a 19-year-old. But the action isn't inherently wrong. If two adults meet, hit it off and want to give it a shot, then whatever. It likely won't work out, but it's hardly preying on someone.

It gets creepy when said 30-something is only dating 19-year-olds. Because then you have someone who's actively looking for the power and maturity gaps that come with that much of an age spread. It's very, very creepy if someone knew the 19-year-old since before they were 19 and then started dating them.

As far as I know the latter two situations don't apply to Henry Cavill.

But how the fuck are they supposed to be allowed to learn to make these smart choices if you remove all obstacles from in front of them? How the fuck are they supposed to have experiences that help shape them and grow them into empowered women if they're not allowed to make mild mistakes?

What about socially stunted 30 year old women who were raised and abused in a hyper religious family that leave and have no social experience? Should they not be allowed to date someone of the same age just because they don't have the same life experience?

What about a 30 year old woman dating a 19 year old male? Is that wrong? Is that abusive? Does that deserve calling out and huddling around to defend the male? No? Then shut the fuck up.

It's not about telling young women and men they can't do something. Its about educating them for things to watch out for and for their community to keep an eye out for them.

It is about discouraging older people from preying on young adults.

It's not an assumption that all age gap relationships are predatory, but acknowledging that they are significantly more likely to be so.

These other things are a problem so that other problem isn't a real problem

People usually don't choose to smoke just because at 21 (legal age now in the states) it's usually through pressure and manipulation. Tobacco industry are known to target young people.

#2 is a whole topic on its own

#3 ties in closely go #2, but ultimately should be solved with "education should never cost an individual more than what comes from their taxes"

Yes. People like to blame her because she had a fairly justified rant about sexist comments complaining about her solely because she's "not as bangable as [her] predecessor." The irony is that her tirade was absolutely the thing the revival was most known for and probably brought more eyes and attention to it than anything else.

Yes, be careful of assumptions because there are beautiful, agressive young adults who are skilled at manipulating older suitors into doing whatever they want. Often when people talk about the power gap, it seems like they forget or cant wrap their heads around the very real possibility that a younger woman could very much be the predator in a relationship with an older man.
