Clearly the guy is a sexual predator but my question is why are all of these women only coming out now? If Jolie and Paltrow had reported him 25 years ago then surely this would have stopped him? Surely by saying nothing they are assisting an offender?

'I didn't say anything because I thought my career would end if I admitted that I'm a tacky slut who sucks cock for an acting role.' The laughable victimhood culture of the modern day female.

"The casting couch syndrome is as old as them thar hills. Marylyn Monroe was banged by lots of producers,and Doris Day had to fight band leaders off before she became famous. Probably why she prefers stray dogs now. I've seen lots of photos of Nicole Kidman kissing and hugging Weinstein recently,yet she's part of the crowd of females condemning him now."

"I expect Joss Whedon appreciates the timing. Not a huge fan of Trump but the feminist reaction to him as compared to Bill Clinton should tell you all you need to know about double standards. And thus this should not be a huge surprise. People may bandwagon once it comes out but silence for years is okay for political/ideological/career/generally any other, reason."

But Paltrow and Jolie paint themselves as staunch feminists and by not coming out and telling the world sooner dozens of other women have been attacked. All for the sake of their careers?

Terry crews timeline is an interesting read. Said he was groped by a high up Hollywood exec bloke. But was afraid to say anything in case it damaged his career.

America’s Saville Hollywood is the BBC in that too many people wanting to be seen as liberal and cool were happy to turn a blind eye so long as they were getting paid. Janet street porter even said so on Question Time a few years back and then got aggressive when called out on it

He tried it on with lots of women. Who would you tell about that that would take it seriously and challenge such a powerful guy? The ones he assaulted I presume are ones whose careers and prospects were often at his WHIM. I see he has left for Europe presumably to stay in Roman Polanski's spare room.
