One person the author forgot to include; Corey Feldman. He is outspoken on Pedophilia in the Entertainment Industry and he has always stated that throughout their friendship, Michael never once sexually touched or abused him. That Forbes article should be provided as a footnote to anyone foolish enough to swallow that 'documentary' hit-piece.
Reminded me of a few articles Carrie Fisher on Evan Chandler https://abcnews.go.com/Entertainmen...enators-prostitutes-michael/story?id=14915803 The Truth About What Michael Jackson Had (And Didn’t Have) In His Bedroom https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entr...nd-thenor-now-the_us_577fdfbce4b0f06648f4a3f8
Not sure if this is the right place for this but @The Dark King and @Beasty would get a kick out of it. https://slate.com/human-interest/2019/01/metoo-workplace-harassment-men-avoiding-women.html
So basically more of the shame game. When its their concerns its legitimate but when its a man's we lack empathy. They just make a stronger case for why segregation makes sense. They don't have to endure our immature behavior and we can do our best work without worrying about upsetting someone. Telling a man his sense of safety should be sacrificed for women to get their mentorship is a perfect illustration of their lack of empathy. I say let them figure it out most men never get mentors because we are highly compatible. This is what equality looks like. Enjoy.
If we are no longer around them, how could we still be the problem at that point? No time for the made up issues. If it's segregated, they can mentor other women. Don't like being around other women all day, then don't complain about men all day. What kind of cracked out logic says that men are still the issue even when we aren't around?? LOL
With the current state of feminism, it's basically always the man's fault. And if it isn't the individual male's fault, it is broken down to some patriarchy. Sometimes, I am reminded of how religions look at the devil when it comes to patriarchy. Even when a woman does wrong it's the age old, "the devil (patriarchy) made me do it". So, the shame game will always happen... damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Like every woman I've ever dated they are chronically unhappy and its always someone's fault. To this day I've yet to meet a man who says "I'm so upset and I don't know why" Of course its not every woman but the vocal ones live in a nexus of unhappiness and apparently they expect us to fix it
More unintended fallout from the Princess Feminism movement. Boing Boing: After #MeToo, whole industries have been blacklisted by insurers for sexual harassment liability coverage. https://boingboing.net/2019/02/02/internalizing-risks.html
Have y'all talked about the black Lieutenant Governor of Virgina, Justin Fairfax, who's being Metoo'd out of nowhere just as it was looking like he might become the 1st black governor of Virginia because of the Blackface controversy going on with VA governor.
^^ It is in the politics thread but Justin Fairfax is facing allegations of sexual assault not sexual harassment. I said I would sue them both for slander if it were me plus I would take three separate polygraph exams from three separate and highly reputable companies. Game. Set. Match. You know of course Justin would be the second Man of Color to become governor of the Virginia Commonwealth as Douglas Wilder served in the late 1980's. This controversy gives unimaginable political cover for Ralph Northam to remain in office if no more photos surface of him celebrating with Knights of the White Camelia or other racial figures.
I think he is correct in having this be investigated, because it isn't something they just came out of the woodwork with they have said this before. Like @Young Herschel said I think we need to start looking into polygraph exams because people obviously don't know how to get to the truth anymore and now it IS looking like a witch hunt. Even though these women were very detailed in what happened we must remember a liar can be just as detailed. But as I said they have accused him in the past so we need an investigation of some sorts and probably insert a polygraph.
^^ I would do whatever I reasonably could to defeat these unsubstantiated allegations so why not poly because I know if I committed these heinous acts or not? I, for example, didn't do what these women say ( I never met them even) so I would poly everyday one after another for a week and pass every single one of them . . . plus sue them both for slander. Political brilliance
Yikes. R. Kelly is probably going to jail if this is authenticated. The girl will have to testify 'it's her', of course. Also, his up coming Australia and Asia world tour won't be happening because his passport will be confiscated. Michael Avenatti says he has new video evidence of R. Kelly having sex with a 14-year-old girl who calls him 'daddy' "..Avenatti said Thursday that the 45-minute tape clearly depicts Kelly 'engaging in multiple sexual assaults of a girl underage'. He said he has turned over the video to Chicago prosecutors. The new video shows a man appearing to be Kelly performing sex acts with a girl who calls him 'daddy' and repeatedly refers to her '14-year-old pussy', according to CNN, which claims to have viewed the tape. The video contains two scenes. One is apparently in a living room and another in a bedroom. A naked man who appears to be Kelly is seen performing multiple sex acts with the girl. At one point, the man asks the girl to urinate. After she does, he urinates on her, according to CNN. Prosecutors in Illinois are moving to indict the 52-year-old Kelly, and he may be arrested imminently, a senior law-enforcement official ..." https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...vidence-R-Kelly-having-sex-underage-girl.html
Openly gay West Hollywood Mayor refuses to resign after being accused of 'sexually harassing chorus members and looking for sex on Grindr during public meetings' A protest is scheduled to take place at the West Hollywood City Council on Tuesday after several members called for Duran to step aside following what they say is a history of similar behavior. One member, Brian Phillip Nichoalds, told the Los Angeles Times that Duran put his hand inside his waistband and made crude sexual comments, while another man, Joey Firoben, said he was subjected to inappropriate comments as well. Jason Tong also alleged that Duran slipped two fingers into his waistband before a show in the changing room. In October last year, a council employee - Mike Gerle - made a formal complaint to HR about Duran for making unwanted sexual advances to his boyfriend Dennis Gleason during public meetings. "He has this sense of entitlement that because we're gay, 'I can do whatever I want with you because that's our culture.' He's decided that's our culture. He doesn't understand that every gay man gets to decide what interactions he has. You don't get a pass,' Gerle told the Times. Duran has claimed that the #MeToo movement has led to a rush of judgement against him before the allegations had been proven. He insisted that 'being sexual does not equal sexual harassment' and that he had fought for his right to express himself as an openly gay man, and would not step down from his position'. "..Will I resign? HELL NO. I have stared down the KKK, the White Aryan Resistance, right wing judges and Presidents. 'Being sexual does not equal sexual harassment.. I hope that West Hollywood never loses its edge, its sexual appetite, its flirtatiousness, its sexy people, its nightclubs and children of the night..." In an unrelated incident, the city paid $500,000 to settle a sexual harassment lawsuit against Duran back in February 2016. The suit was filed by Duran's former deputy, Ian Owens, who he hired after meeting on Grindr and having sex with him. (Wow)
Brother Rolle, who is currently in his residency as a neurosurgeon, got put on blast by Amanda Seales, who apparently picked this as the week to take down every Black male in America. She ain't got evidence of anything besides a dude trying to hook up. This shit is out-of-control. These so-called Black "feminists" don't know any other way to make a name for themselves besides trying to destroy Black men and falsely taking credit for anything that's ever been produced in the Negro community. Brother was a Rhodes scholar, earned a degree from Oxford, chose medical school over the NFL, is currently honing his craft as neurosurgeon and this is what he gets for messing with BW. Luckily, Seales couldn't contain her Black male hatred and went on that insane rant blaming all Black men for Jussie's hoax and Trump's election, so nobody is taking her seriously at all right now. Anyway, here's Dr. Rolle's statement of defense. https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/college/article226576859.html “I understand that in today’s world the responsibility falls on the ‘accused’ to prove themselves innocent, as opposed to ones alleged ‘accuser’ having to prove their claims before going public. Unfortunately, I have found myself victim to these very circumstances.” “A blogger/online personality, whom I have never met in person and have only interacted with once via phone, recently claimed that I verbally harassed her during a phone call exchange. She furthered these claims by stating that anonymous sources have come forward and added their accounts to her narrative.” “Let me make myself perfectly clear — these accusations are absolutely false and should be characterized as exactly what they are — acts of bullying, intimidation and retaliation. “ “I have been raised to respect women and to also keep my personal affairs private, as that is the respectful thing to do. However, I will not sit idly by and allow someone to engage in intentional character assassination simply because I did not return their advances or wish to engage in a relationship as they may have wanted.” “Accusations of sexual harassment should be taken seriously, but the same should be said for false accusations against someone and the impact those accusations can have in today’s digital world. I thank you all for your support and for allowing me the opportunity to stand up for myself and against any actions of bullying, intimidation and retaliation.”
