The James Franco case'll be interesting because this is a guy who even the media has keyed out as a generational sex symbol in the past.

- lol. at least people are getting called out on there idiocy. although, you still have to be on the oppression spectrum to it successfully.Gnash
- ah—refreshing to see an idiot called out—not just for hypocrisy but for getting nude on film for a mere $100/day—I think models@the local art schl are paid morePonyBoy
- Claims she hasn't had an agent for 23 yrs, needs work, needs to eat, needs a career. Yet shits on her industry, w/o nudity. Now she's looking for a new career.********
- lol ... geezBennn
- I probably get fired taking my cloth off on set. But she got paid!! Sexist industry!! Although I did get more per day to keep my cloth on.pango
- I have to laugh at the learned bitchiness. "Sweetheart". Lol. Shit's old.cannonball1978

- James Franco class outline seems sleazy than kosher. Hiring your own students to do respectable nudity? Roles being stripper, hooker, and prostitute.********

- Ohhh nose.pango
- 100$ per day. Wow. I never worked with a model at such a low rate... What was her task? Hanging around naked in the background of a scene?SimonFFM
- fuck both of these cunts. Chicks these days are literally fighting over who got abused more. hilarious.sofakingback

- Yeah. Learn the use your words definitively.cannonball1978
- So the moment she said no he stopped...mugwart
- 3000 words of revenge open based on regret and rejection on a bad date. She wanted more than a one night stand. Non verbal cues? He's not her boss or anything.shellie
- https://www.theatlan… <<I agree. Also I find it cowardly to tell THAT story anonymousshellie
- She should have told her friends and kept it pushing. She's diluting something very, very important with bad date stories. Girl, bye!shellie
- "...and drank wine. “It was white,” she said. “I didn’t get to choose and I prefer red, but it was white wine.”Gnash
- so he didn't read her mind? bastard. he should have guessed that when she had his dick in her mouth she clearly wanted nothing to do with him._niko
- this is actually fucked, the fact that an "awkward" sexual encounter now has the potential to drag someone through the mud.inteliboy
- it also completely dilutes the issue for actual victims. Yet watch the media and twitter fuckwits lap it all up for the sake of attention and outrage.inteliboy
- Good article shellie.mugwart
- Yeah this is ridiculous...no one seems to consider the "abuse" being visited on the guy by broadcasting the graphic details of his sex life to the world.yuekit
- no surprise that sex with aziz would be awkward af, dohGnash
- page six looks like a site for bored housewivesmoldero
- I'd be curious to hear a females perspective on what's acceptable and what's not. Dating must be fucking impossible these days...Gucci

so a girl goes into her bosses office, short skirt, high heels, starts chatting and flirting, after a while says it's hot in there and unbuttons her blouse a bit, revealing cleavage and some of her bra, the boss is a little put off but continues the conversation, then she proceeds to cross and uncross her legs 'accidentally" giving him a glimpse of her freshly shaved pussy (she also accidentally forgot to wear panties today) now he's stumbling on his words and clearly thrown off, she then start licking her pen slowly taking it in and out of her mouth in a provocative manner, all the while locking eyes with him.
The Boss can't control himself at this point and proceeds to have passionate sex with her.
The next day he's arrested for rape.
She never verbally consented.
She was powerless to say NO because of the power dynamics.
Dressing a certain way isn't an invitation to sex.
Being in a hot office and loosening clothing isn't an invitation to sex.
Crossing and uncrossing legs is in an uncomfortable chair isn't an invite.
neither is personal grooming habits or choice of undergarments.
and having a nervous habit of sucking on pen's is also not an invite.So who's right in this situation?
- one isn't forced to have sex with all who may show interest. boss should have passed. he should be fired for doing so.Gnash
- considering this situation would never happen, I'd say she's right to press charges if he raped hermonospaced
- "and proceeds to have passionate sex with her" There's a lot of missing story here. Cannot answer.SteveJobs
- he should go self rape himself in the bathroom insteadGuyFawkes
- was her intention to get him fired? if so morally she is wrong for deception BUT he should not have gone through with thatmugwart
- He should have fired her for exposing herselfcannonball1978
- it's rape...
... btw... thanks for the bonerPonyBoy - lol boss right :) this isn't so complicated, just be a fucking man and recognize the situation. this way you're just a piece of shit who fucks everything.sted
- and you deserve to lose.sted
- Ok, now let’s take the exact first part of the situation but let’s change the ending. The girl doesn’t go to the police but instead writes a blog titled hottest_niko
- Sex of my life and recounts the encounter with her boss. Anonymously.
They never have a repeat encounter but she will always cherish this memory._niko - Now, given that the situation and the act haven’t changed, only the girl’s perception or reaction to it after the fact, does it change anything?_niko
- Is it both rape and not rape until the girl decides what it is?_niko
- And I hope that I’m not coming across like I’m insinuating anything lol, it’s just a thought exercise_niko
- Sex in the office is always wrong. Fucking your employees is always a bad idea. And inter office relationships are dangerous -- just in case you were confused.shellie
- That's an easy lawsuit to avoid. Even in this fictional situation where she was egging him on, he should know better. He's her boss. This only happens in porn.shellie
- Are you really this dumb? This is a man's mythology of what actually happens.monkeyshine
- Interesting. So if the power dynamics were different, say they were neighbors, then this is ok? Is that what it hinges on?_niko
- Monkey shine, just a thought exercise, reverse genders if you like. Happens plenty of times the other way around too._niko
- Or these are both females or both males. Same situation no boss so remove power dynamic. Act happens as before. Scenario 1 rape is claimed, scenario 2 it is not_niko
- Does one person’s perception of the act change the act itself? Is egging someone on a green light for rape?_niko
- Scenario 1 boss is morally and legally guilty.
Scenario 2 the boss is morally but not legally guilty_niko - With no boss dynamic
Scenario1 morally and legally guilty?
Scenario2 morally and legally innocent?
Only determining factor being how one party acted afterwar_niko - With the boss dynamic, both are wrong morally and legally per American HR laws. Without the boss dynamic, he should definately get a clear go ahead, becauseshellie
- Non verbal concent is not sideways consent. It might not be concent at all. And if he's married or she's married, that's adultery, such can make you civillyshellie
- liable in some states. It's not that hard to cover your ass.shellie
- Typos. Sorry guys.*Non verbal concent is not always consent *if he's married or she's married, that's adultery, which can make you civilly liable in some statesshellie
- By changing the "ending" of your story, you are in fact changing the whole story. 1 she consented, 2 she didn't.dyspl
- You assume her decision afterward change the outcome, whereas the difference was really during the act itself.dyspl
- You simply outlined pure fiction, where a woman is raped, and still insist on asking who’s “right” here. She was raped.monospaced

Margaret Atwood on all of this. Some choice excerpts:
The #MeToo moment is a symptom of a broken legal system. All too frequently, women and other sexual-abuse complainants couldn't get a fair hearing through institutions – including corporate structures – so they used a new tool: the internet. Stars fell from the skies. This has been very effective, and has been seen as a massive wake-up call. But what next? The legal system can be fixed, or our society could dispose of it. Institutions, corporations and workplaces can houseclean, or they can expect more stars to fall, and also a lot of asteroids.
If the legal system is bypassed because it is seen as ineffectual, what will take its place? Who will be the new power brokers? It won't be the Bad Feminists like me. We are acceptable neither to Right nor to Left. In times of extremes, extremists win. Their ideology becomes a religion, anyone who doesn't puppet their views is seen as an apostate, a heretic or a traitor, and moderates in the middle are annihilated. Fiction writers are particularly suspect because they write about human beings, and people are morally ambiguous. The aim of ideology is to eliminate ambiguity.
- She's lauded in the intl press as a feminist prophet, yet slagged off at home by woke bansheesGnash
- Margaret F'ing Atwood isn't seen as a sufficiently feminist. what a broke bunch of twats this literary scene in canada is lousy withGnash

A recent survey by The Economist/YouGov found that approximately 25 percent of millennial-age American men think asking someone for a drink is harassment. More than a third of millennial men and women say that if a man compliments a woman’s looks it is harassment.
- And if they think the guy is hot af it becomes flirting.Maaku
- I don't believe that statistic. I'd like to see the way the question was posed. Also, there's a potato [sic] likelihood they be trollin'SteveJobs
