Women Can Assault Men, Too!

The idea of men being assaulted is not a fever dream. It can actually happen. This doesn't happen to just women and I'm willing to bet there are a number of Hollywood actors that have been harassed and assaulted. Unless you're someone like Terry Crews, they probably don't say anything about the women accusers because they would be ostracized by the community and the media. With this new incident of Asia Argento, it brings up a little strength to MeToo, but it also hurts it significantly.

Argento was one of the first to accuse Harvey Weinstein of raping and assaulting her. Now, she has her own battle to deal with. She has a lawsuit involving an incident that happened in 2013 with an actor she worked with on a movie when he was a young child. I'll leave a link at the end of the blog. This 17 year old at the time, Jimmy Bennett, was supposedly harassed by the actress and then paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to stay mum on what happened. Stuff like sex and photos being half naked (both of them) were the highlights.

Age of consent in California is 18 years old. This is the kind of stuff that gets people in jail, but I doubt Argento will be sentenced. While you can accuse harassment and be accused at the same time, it kind of shows the double standard in actresses and why at times these movements are a joke. It's why I have a hard time believing half the stuff that these women say. You can easily be swayed and fooled by them, and the media will buy into it hook, line, and sinker. And the sad thing is I believe the Weinstein things happened, which I still do. I think this will hurt any movements, not just MeToo. The fact that this has hurt actress Rose McGowan says a lot about the movement of harassment.

Am I saying every woman is a liar? No. But it's seems like an easy excuse to fake a story or try and get quick money from this. One of the more interesting stories is that ex of Chris Hardwick. She tells her "story" and then she tells people a couple months later to move on. What the hell were you trying to do then, Dykstra? Anyways, I hope this brings to light that men can be assaulted and for guys to use the same movement stuff. It's not just one side always getting hurt.

A small positive does not help the big blow MeToo will get. How it recovers is another story in itself. And if this stuff comes to light as being true, Argento will have a hard time finding work and what she says will be looked at with a fine tooth comb.

Why I Don't Feel Bad For Most Women Accusers

I know when I do this blog, I'm not going to win everybody over. Nobody does. My main focus has been video games, TV, film, and sports. It's not easy trying to get these done a few times a week. This might be the easiest to talk since these are honest thoughts for this. Time Magazine considered their Person of the Year to be The Silence Breakers, women who have gone on to say they were sexually harassed by men. I find it to be a crock of shit, and a bad black eye.

It goes back a few months ago to the Harvey Weinstein incident, which might be one of the very few things that I'll actually believe. It wouldn't surprise me if he did rape and harass women. And I've played the game L.A. Noire, where there's a case of a producer trying to kill and rape a 15 year old at the beginning of it. Then came the floodgates, which increased following the Me Too hashtag created by washed up star Alyssa Milano. Now a lot of women are saying they got sexually harassed. Even the people you wouldn't think is ridiculous such as Dustin Hoffman and Charlie Sheen, the latter accused of raping the late Corey Haim back around 1985/86.

I've had a hard time believing anything since hearing the story of Brian Banks, the football player who got exonerated a few years ago for a rape crime he didn't commit. Losing five years of his to jail because of some idiot woman cost him a chance at college football and even the NFL. The other story in my head is reporter Erin Andrews. I've never liked her. She is one of the most useless sideline people who fits the stereotype of dumb, blonde, and a body of a model. I think she's stupid, and I didn't buy into her sob story a couple years ago. Back in 2007 when she was at ESPN, a peeper supposedly filmed her naked (it was hard to know if it was Andrews due to how the video looked) Personally, I think she underestimated her popularity. Most people aren't going to watch her for her reporting. Someone with a body like hers, big breasts, wardrobe, and hair color is going to lead to some having stalkers.

Sidetrack aside, the media is going to give sympathy to a woman. They get more coverage and platforms to speak on while the man gets nothing. The idea of innocent until proven guilty is a joke. If an incident didn't happen, it doesn't matter. A guy's life is finished and he can't go back to the same everyday routine because of the false accusations. With the big name people, it leaves a sour taste in my mouth because there's actual harassment that goes on that doesn't wind up being heard on NBC or CBS or any network. I view it as women mostly wanting either 15 minutes of fame, or quick money because of it escalating since Weinstein. As I said, it's a bad black eye, and it makes actual harassment cases go unnoticed where something actually did happen and it wasn't a get rich quick scheme.

Until then, I'm just going to be a non-believer in most of these stories. I'm more inclined to believe the local papers than I would what is said in Hollywood. And a number of women need to be held accountable for their actions.
