It's more...he got called out for sexual assault and used that to come out of the closet. Oh and he blamed booze. So essentially he blamed booze and being gay lol.That's just hilarious. The ACT of course is not funny at all, but this is just f*cking bizarre. At this point it would be easier for those in Hollywood who haven't committed some form of sexual assault to step forward.
But honestly, did you read what he supposedly did? He came onto the guy in a creepy-ass way, yeah, but he didn't force him into anything. The guy was able to leave of his own accord. Actual sexual abusers wouldn't generally let that happen, in fact it's that form of pressurised sex that is probably the most common form of rape.
Making this out to be 'sexual assault' isn't really reasonable. 'Inappropriate behaviour' for sure, very inappropriate, but 'sexual assault' is a stretch from the story that the guy told, unless I read it wrong.
Did I read it wrong? Am I missing something here?

It\s just the phrase being used in the media. Sexual misconduct might be better?
Though some have called it molestation.
Originally posted by SurturYeah and I'm sure they'd love to call it just straight-up 'rape' if they could, because that's what sells. If he'd done any worse than he did then maybe we'd have a story here, but he didn't, so unless we hear of any other Creepy Kevin stories, I don't see what else can be made of it

Weinstein shit is turning into a witch hunt already and not a genuine attempt to confront the dark side of Hollywood. Not even surprised. Society is not mature enough to tackle big concepts I guess, they need them parcelled down into clickbait chunks so that their dumbass brains can figure out how it's supposed to make them feel

In power positions in general. Look at the Catholic church, for example. It's clearly an issue all over the world but it's the one thing people are too scared to confront or speak about properly
it's becoming apparent that it is the end game of power gone out of control. like evil ultimately leads to it.
