Maybe female actors should only work for female directors/producers, like female only buses.
Maybe (some) men shouldn't be utter a..holes.. Simpler solution perhaps?

But where would be the fun in that?Maybe (some) men shouldn't be utter a..holes.. Simpler solution perhaps?

What standard of proof should be required ? How do we know that women are always telling the truth ?
The potential for revenge for perceived snubs or honest opinions would seem to be quite high.
Hollywood is such vapid vomit. Wheres a stray Kim Jong Un nuke when you need it. Hush money, actors flip-floping on supposed values, backing one set of rapists over another. Spare me the "Celeb" lessons.It’s easy to sneer at Hollywood doing politics but the Golden Globes nailed it

Instead of simply speaking out themselves, stars raised the profiles of real-life activists. A-listers who wish to use your fame for good: this is how it’s done
...... What was different about last night was that several politically active stars chose to capitalise on this chance. Instead of simply speaking out themselves, they attempted to elevate the voices of others. As well as wearing black in an attempt raise awareness of the #TimesUp anti-sexual harassment initiative, Emma Watson, Meryl Streep and several other A-list women all brought female activists as their plus ones.
Streep was accompanied by Ai-jen Poo, director of the National Domestic Workers Alliance in the US, while Watson brought Marai Larasi, executive director of Imkaan, a UK women’s organisation dedicated to addressing violence against black and minority ethnic women and girls. Amy Poehler’s guest was Saru Jayaraman, president of Restaurant Opportunities Centers United. Shailene Woodley brought Calina Lawrence who campaigns against social injustices impacting tribal reservations and urban Native American communities. Michelle Williams invited Tarana Burke, creator of the #MeToo movement and senior director at Girls for Gender Equality.

Susan Sarandon walked the red carpet with Rosa Clemente, a community organiser and independent journalist who campaigns on issues including voter engagement and media justice. Laura Dern came with Monica Ramirez, the co-founder of Alianza Nacional de Campesinas, an organisation which advocates for female farmworkers across the US, which published a letter in solidarity with Hollywood actors against sexual assault and requested support with similar issues in their own industry.
Hopefully, all those women will now find themselves inundated with interview requests and other opportunities to raise their profiles and further their activism. Last night’s appearances alone will likely have inspired many people to Google their names and find out more about their work. Hopefully, the event will set a precedent. A-listers who wish to use your fame for good: this is how you do it. Seek out voices to elevate and provide them with new opportunities to speak out.

Awww did I insult your idols.Celeb lessons ? Really Moxxy be a waste of time and effort on you. You clearly havn't learn't anything since 1955 - and are determined not to.
And then perhaps the next President of the Uunited States.
Miss billionaire who blamed obesity on child molestation by fathers. Who pandered to the women audiences who all looked like they came from the same egg:- hair styles, wardrobe, physique and hysterical fawning. Who has a social media pic of her lying on Weinstein giving kissy kissy
I don't think Ophrah would make the best next President of the US....
.......but sure as hell she would be miles better than our present resident raging sociopath.
As for your trashing of her. Pure Tizz
Yeah, just what the US needs, another celebrity President.
I hope Caroline Kennedy runs. There is someone with a sense of community service.
