Henry Cavill forced to apologize for #metoo comments

Cut out the crap. I've read these documents long before this thread. I'm well aware of the difficulties involved for rape victims in terms of coming forward. There have been hundreds of such threads during the time I've been on boards.

However, I've been querying your statements. The points you made.

You stated that rape was tolerated. You haven't backed up that statement or other previous statements. You have since stated that there is a sleazy culture. You keep dodging that question too.

The point is that you keep making these sweeping statements without any substance. Now, honestly, I've had enough because I think you're a sexist, and misandristic in your views. This isn't about helping women.... because you really don't care about them. This is about you blaming men for everything, and getting a rush arguing about it online.

IF this was actually about helping women, you would be encouraging the metoo contributors to come forward and be investigated by the police. Meh! I'm not even going to repeat myself because you'll just skip over it, repeating the same bile. Done and done.

So why are you saying it's as easy as them just reporting their assaults? It's not.

Where did I say rape was tolerated? In what context? I've already told you about the sleazy culture, read the metoo stories!

I've never blamed men for anything! I've blamed rapists and sexual deviants who happen to be male in the most part. I keep asking, what is wrong with that? What have I said that's so wrong? Shouldn't we all be saying negative stuff about rapists and other scum?

Sleazy culture is not just in pubs and clubs!

Agread and that was my fault I should have went wider but sleazy people of who are front and center so to speak I believe do not become rapists. Does that mean we should not try to stamp that out of course we should and I be front and center to defend any of my friends male or female from those people

At least you've seen your mistake now. Hopefully you won't get as upset about me or others attacking rapists and other scum from now on.

EVERYONE THINKS RAPISTS ARE SCUM. EVERYONE. YOU'RE NOT PROVIDING NEW INFORMATION.

Yes, we're in complete agreement. So easy isn't it! Does it mean you're anti man now because you said something bad about sleazy men?

So why are you disagreeing with my posts? I haven't said anything bad about anyone else except rapists and other sleazebags.

DONTMATTER wrote: »

That's just rape, the groping, harassment etc. Why does that happen? Why is it so common for some men?

Because some people despicable. Also why just ask why is it so common for some men why not ask why is it so common for some men and women?

Because it's not so common for women.

It's not so common for men also.

I'm out of here again. Hopefully some of you have learned something. Attacks on rapists who mostly are men is not the same as an attack on men. Also, there are many reasons why rape victims don't report, it's very offensive to suggest that they're apart of the problem because they don't report.

No but of those who do this kind of thing, most are men. That's just fact, it's not anti men.

You should apologise to Omackeral before you go.

No because (and please stay with me for this point) I used the word sleasy and men together as a single entity and (did not suggest which you do) that it is a major epidemic across human males.

I actually believe you are blinded to the fact you do it

What to be sleazy yep it is but men don't have a #metoo movement or a maleinist movement. We be crucified as anti women. It is quiet common in both

It's a tongue in cheek reference to a former sh1t stirrer who would pop up and disappear as quick.

It would be interesting to see what the reaction would be if it was genuinely started.

Because up to now the harassment of men is only raised to try and get women to shut up.

Personally I have the greatest sympathy for men who are harrassed by women. But id usually discount their “I get harassed too and you don’t see me complaining” nonsense.

It would be instantly attacked, ridiculed and then made look like the members are extremists.

The only thing men are allowed do right now is end themselves early or be feminists, anything else is not allowed by the left LGBT overlords of this world.

I think they’d get a lot of support if it was done in a genuine manner

No, metoo is not just about rape. You can't just ignore it.

Studies say between 2-4% are false.

What sweeping statements? Thousands of women have come out with their stories, they shouldn't be doubted. We have to try to put an end to the behavior of some men, not question women for bringing the topic to all our attention.

Eh, I know metoo is not just about rape, and I've said it shouldn't be ignored my self a few pages back!

Thanks for the link - it's an interesting report and it makes for depressing reading. Would be interested to know if there is a similar more up to date study like this?

On the point about false claims, the range of false claims referred to in the report (1-9%) - this is only where a conclusion has been arrived at, say by investigating police officers, that the claims are false. As it happens, Ireland is cited at 9%.

Theres also a sizeable number of claims retracted at various stages and then others where evidence is deemed insufficient.

Maybe don’t do it in a thread about women’s experiences as a means to criticise women? That’s be a good start.

Your the one that brought it up, as if you even had an interest in it

. I know you would rather focus on men being the aggressors, nothing quite like giving minority groups the ability to ruin peoples reputations online. Justice is being served.

Also the thread is about Henry Cavill and the impact on his career because as a straight male and not having the "im gay" protection that he has to be careful how he acts around woman.
