REAL TALK: I've Been Watching This Harvey Weinstein shyt & I Think This Needs To Be Said

[MeachTheMonster]

There is a line that's being blurred here.

There is an acceptable way to approach/court women.

Problem is the line between flattery and harassment is different for different people and situations.

Very rarely does a person verbalize an attraction or desire to be courted, so men and women take a chance in "shooting their shot" as it's called.

I just hope it doesn't get to a point when a person can holler "harassment" at any advance they don't like.

Harvey Weinstein doesn't deserve or need any defenders. But I do think a conversation needs to be had as far as what constitutes as "harassment" or "assault" and what just a failed attempt at trying to get some action.

How is masturbating in front of a woman shooting your shot? How is answering the door naked shooting your shot? how is physically blocking the door to prevent a woman from leaving shooting your shot?

Some of you guys are actually sexual predators.

Everytime, whether it be on Twitter, FB, or in here, a sexual assault topic come up, u find out who a weirdo cool with sexual assault.

there's a difference between being cool with something, and understanding that's just the way things are

again - if harvey weinstein were jerry jones or phil jackson, this discussion would be going very differently

and like i said - mark my words WHEN women from all over the place start to come out and shyt on top tier athletes from yester-year

are y'all gonna call them rapists too? for using their fame and money to sleep with multiple women? <<< pretty soon this will be seen as "rape culture" as well.

My thing is with that much power and influence, i’d be straight up.

“I wanna fukk you; yay or nay?”

“Your answer will decide your difficulty in this business.”

Have them sign some iron-clad confidentiality forms my lawyer drawn up with video evidence of everything. Should they share anything, it would be released.

BOOM!

She’s become a common whore.

Personally, I’m attractive and cool enough that women wanna give me the p*ssy making less than $40k before taxes so added some Ms and the power to change a chick’s life?

African!

he was talking specifically about the lupita situation when he used that "shoot your shot" line

funny nobody is posting these articles in the midst of all of this:

Wow

IS it gonna be illegal to have a few drinks with a chick, come back to your place, put on some Teddy P. and then try to massage her?

If I, or you, or any other person on thecoli are wining and dining a chick and she agrees to come back to our place, it is NOT the same thing as what Weinstein was doing. The difference is intent. The intention of us meeting a woman was that it's a date with romantic implications. Harvey Weinstein was not on a romantic date with these women. It was supposed to be a purely professional meeting. He was then trying to leverage his power to intimidate them into complying to sexual acts. That is the definition of "coercion" .

That's....not the definition of coercion.

co·er·cion
kōˈərZHən,kōˈərSHən/
noun
noun: coercion; plural noun: coercions

1. the practice of persuading someone to do something by using force or threats.
   "it wasn't slavery because no coercion was used"
   synonyms: force, compulsion, constraint, duress, oppression, enforcement, harassment, intimidation, threats, arm-twisting, pressure
   "Johnson claims the police used coercion to extract a confession"

Everything else was spot on though

I get what you're trying to say.

The media calling his fukkery rape and sexual assault is just sensationalism. Honestly sensationalizing and ruining his name is pretty much all anyone can do to hurt someone that rich and famous. I don't consider majority of those women victims, they made a deals and conscious decisions to fukk him and be in a movie. The reason why they didn't speak out and talked him up every chance they got is because they were happy with their end of the deal, point blank.


At the end of the day he isn't fukking them without consent nor is he coercing consent as far as I read. That's why I don't think he can be charged, there really isn't a specific crime his acts can be defined with. Dude is just leveraging his power for consent/sex.

It's slimy shyt but it's something men do really every day. Dudes all over the world leverage their incomes, possessions, gifts, favors, drugs, lifestyle, fame and more to get sex everyday. I mean, if yall know any female rappers/singers ask them how many times a dude has suggested she fukk for studio time. The difference with Weinstein is he's leveraging their dreams and of all the things I listed, it's something people would give a whole lot more than p*ssy to get.


Anywho, that's what yall lame nikkas get for trying to quidproquo into some p*ssy that move has and always will be anti-game.

What is wrong with some of you dudes

They like p*ssy and don't really like the women attached.

Breaking news: Coli poster disregards common sense as he ignores context and nuance to fake outrage.


In other news, Congratulations to Barack Obama for becoming the first black man to become president of the united states.

 

[Shadow King]

Yes, because they’re playing along and the activities are consensual.

Women don’t want ugly or weird ass dudes pushin up on them or talkin into their ear. Why is this hard to accept?

Well this forum pushes the "get your money/confidence up" "bank account >>> looks" mantra so as far as women not wanting ugly dudes talking to them something's gotta give in that regard...in general, either your looks will always matter when getting at women or it can be offset by money/status.

You have issues with women and you already showed it in previous discussion in HL, but you need to stop exposing yourself in other forums. I suggest that you accept that you have an issue an work to better yourself than to continue to wallow in misery. It's never too late.

You all really need to keep some of your thoughts to yourselves
