That's not what that phrase means.
Tom hanks, Harrison Ford, Tom cruise and Stallone are still good? Right? Please?

Goddamn.Because he's the only other black person you can think of off the top of your head.
Yeah the guy who reportedly sent those creeper Scientology plebs to follow his ex around ? Pass.
http://variety.com/2018/film/news/morgan-freeman-apologizes-sexual-harassment-1202821000/Morgan Freeman has issued an apology for making women feel "uneasy," following a CNN report in which eight women alleged that he sexually harassed them or made inappropriate remarks.
"Anyone who knows me or has worked with me knows I am not someone who would intentionally offend or knowingly make anyone feel uneasy," Freeman said in a statement obtained by Variety. "I apologize to anyone who felt uncomfortable or disrespected — that was never my intent."
WEEE are not doing / can't do anything concerning this outside of react. No one is being condemned by "us".Maybe it's a good idea if we don't condemn him right away though, just saying. I'm gonna read up on this and hopefully it's not true.
Why do people act all surprise?
Money+Power=mostly an asshole.

These replies are always garbage. Right behind "I bet x is next"
Yeah there is a very strong defense force out on this one. I tried to provide articles to people and they just weren't having it. All Def Digital Comments section on Facebook is just an echo chamber of denial. Even with witnesses, a short video, and his apology it's not enough.I wish people would stop with the "I find it hard to believe" bullshit. As if you know these people based on their acting.
Fuck you Freeman.
I didn't go after you, I answered someone else's question about why certain comments rub people the wrong way. You're also patting yourself on the back while calling me a troll that's not as aware as other people because I called something a bat pack. I'm aware of Freeman's history.Sorry not sorry that I pay attention to the news better than you two. And "Eduardo", maybe read the rest of the topic before making an ass of yourself. I made an entire post calling out the attitude you're projecting onto my comment. Freeman has a history. I and others here obviously knew this already. Now you both do as well. Don't be trolls about it, it isn't a competition and my comment didn't even try to make it one, that's on you two.

They've been calling the man God for over a decade so this might take a minute for them to accept it.Yeah there is a very strong defense force out on this one.

Nothing at all condescending about "not sorry I pay more attention to the news than both of you, but I'm glad you now know this thing I already knew. "At no point did I "pat myself on the back". Acknowledging knowing something is not back patting.

If I wanted to have a go at you, I would've quoted you. I was answering someone else's question about a type of response and you opted to jump in front of the shrapnel. Either let it go or tell me more about how much more you know.That was a response to two people, yourself included, having a go at me. Which you clearly were and still are despite your denial. If you feel condescended to, thats on you and your continued projecting.
I'd prepare myself to ditch the film medium completely with this logic.I have blocked out so many movies because of the horrible shit actors/directors have done.
All those amazing Mel Gibson movies.
All the Franco movies.
All the Kevin Spacey movies and shows.
The Cosby Shows.
Now I gotta block out Morgan Freeman movies? The Batmans? Shawshanks? The ____ Almighties? The Sevens?
/depressed.
There are no good guys anymore.
There is only pending disappointment. I'm just waiting for one of my all-time favorite Star Wars' actors/directors/whatever to have shit coming out one day to put the final nail in the coffin of my geek-culture altar.
You just wrote a wall of text saying women are the problem.
No, I clearly stated that it happens on the side of men and women multiple times. I stated though, that one side plays a role more than the other. But at the same time I acknowledge the roles that are played during the game.
You have seen the CNN report, right?
It contains video evidence as well.
You said, "Ladies, you guys play too many games, period."No, I clearly stated that it happens on the side of men and women multiple times. I stated though that one was greater than the other. But at the same time I acknowledge the roles that are played during the game.
I made it clear the game is the problem.
When I say too many games I mean the game of chasing is played too much without just being direct. Someone is always chasing even when the women isn't interested they sometimes like someone chasing them. Yes this happens with men too.You said, "Ladies, you guys play too many games, period."
You think women are being sexually harassed because they play too many games. There is no game. This isn't The Pickup Artist.
None of this is true. Period. It's just sexist stereotypes and myths. Refuse to even entertain this nonsense. "Women" don't do shit, "women" don't orchestrate, prolong, or control, shit, or any of this. Individuals may. "Women" don't. None of this is true. There is no "game." Ain't going to even beat around the bush here. Every single one of those are sexist myths and nothing more. Get out.Let me turn my attention to women. Ladies, you guys play too many games. Period. You have this notorious knack of saying no when you really mean "Yes, keep trying." A lot of women find persistence attractive. You will put on a performance to say no when you're actually saying YES or Maybe. We men know this game and we keep trying as hard as possible until you give up and say YES. Finally, the chase you wanted has ended at your command.
Let's be clear. Women, you're the ones orchestrating, prolonging and controlling this chase the entire time. That's the game. I know this happens with men too but it is more common with women. That's why I'm only addressing you here for the most part.

I'm starting to wonder what Sexual Misconduct is in America. Because remember, this is America.
Now hear me out. I know there's a lot of legitimate claims of sexual harassment, and sexual assault. Especially when it comes to men committing it. But let's also be honest. The game men and women play is very confusing and even sometimes twisted up.

Now this isn't necessarily a bad with persistence and letting someone you're mildly or completely interested in being able to shoot their shot more than once. But it can be confusing also. It trains other men to be persistent in situations where the woman actually means NO. And that's when we cross into sexual harassment.
Now I know what you're thinking. "People know/should know when your No means No." and some do, some pick up on that Immediately. But some have played this game of cat and mouse between the two so many times, with success, that (I believe) they can't honestly tell the difference. I'm not saying in all cases, some people are just creeps or just don't like No and trying to force it. But I do feel for a significant part of the issue, it is the case.
I think that for those situations, and all where you indeed mean NO. You should be as direct as possible and do it in a serious matter. Don't do it playfully, don't do it ambiguously. Be crystal clear as if you are explaining yourself to your boss or a judge.
This is in no way me saying women are the problem. This is me saying this game men and women play could potentially be where a large part of the problem lies.

Let's give the guy that raised a step-granddaughter then had sexual relations with her the benefit of the doubt.Maybe it's a good idea if we don't condemn him right away though, just saying. I'm gonna read up on this and hopefully it's not true.
Yeah, that's what I got from it tooI don't get about the second clip. I thought he's saying he wishes he was there to see the awkward moment happen in real time.
Please god I hope Patrick Stewart and Ryan Reynolds are not horrible people either.
