WOW Stormy Daniels Arrested, Henry Cavill #MeToo Backlash, NATO Dustup Explained, & More. Selina Aguilar: I consider myself a pretty left-leaning person, but the people freaking out at Henry Cavill are overreacting a bit, I think. He literally said he stops at No. What more could we want of men? I mean, sure, not being bothered by strange men at all would be lovely, but I don't know, I think a man who has the decency to stop pursuing a woman after she says no is someone respectable enough. I remember being asked out by a stranger at a bus stop and upon telling him I had a partner he wouldn't let up. Just one date? Can I at least have your number? etc. I feel like that's a more worthy demographic to go after than someone who doesn't even take it that far. That being said, though--and it is possible that due to the editorial liberty of the publication, the context of his words may have been a bit skewed--I do think it would rub a lot of people the wrong way to hear someone say, I don't flirt with women because I don't want to go to prison. I would hope you're not harassing women because they're human beings, not because you fear the legal consequences, but I really don't think that's what he was trying to say regardless.

Henry went into the gray area of the #MeToo movement. There are still tons of women who want men to chase them. And those how don't simply don't want them enough. Just the other day my female cousin uploaded a story in which she said, I do want a guy as a boyfriend who I like, but still I'll make him chase me a little. And that's where the confusion stems from. The women like Helen paints the picture like it's so black and white. As men it's not like that for us. Bill Maher once said in one of his New Rules segment that there are men women don't want around and there are some they want them to chase them. The problem is we don't know which one we are. You can't make a worldwide culture where men have always 'chased' the love of their life. And that is somewhat expected of them and suddenly one day up and go, oh you know what that's not acceptable anymore. And what makes it worse, the whole womenkind even doesn't believe that in unison. example above of my cousin. It's so confusing guys. I can understand why Cavill said he better go back to his ex rather than chase someone new.

Helen Price is Full of Crap - Becuz what a man thinks or feels is appropriate a women might feel is Not. Helen Price is WRONG for the very Reason that MeToo Exists. The MeToo Movement comes out of women complaining about incidents that USUALLY OCCURRED YEARS and in some instances DECADES ago. If the behavior was deemed to be Seriously Offensive Or inappropriate any REASONABLE Person would think it should have been ADDRESSED At That moment Instead of Years or Decades later. Helen Price now cussing, and carping and whining about what is reasonable is counter to almost every accusation made by MeToo. Henry Cavill was just addressing what EVERYONE Else can easily see is and has been a problem with MeToo. No two people are going to always experience a situation the same way and any miss-understanding could make you a target for MeToo and nobody has that kind of time or is going to risk their career.

I agree with Henry Cavill. He's just stating the truth. Its easy for women to get mad about what he said but he wasn't wrong. He's commenting on the fact that any little thing can backfire on him. It happens the normal men so its more likely that he would have to be more cautious because he's in the public eye. A women can say a man violated her and next thing you know youve lost your job and are shamed in the public eye. And ever since the metoo movement every women is apparently being abused if u even look there way. You dont even need to have proof In the past few months ive seen so many reports of women saying a man abused them only to find out she was lying. But the guys career is done and meanwhile the women faces no jail time for it. And thats not to say women arent being abused but its really getting out of control. I can see why he's not trying to pursue anyone.

I think Henry Cavill just stated his opinions flirting as a celebrity. This is how he views the situation, this is how he deals with it. Sure, the 'rapist' thing was a huge exaggeration, a bit too much of one in my eyes as well, but if you replace 'being called a rapist' with 'getting huge backlash', then he is simply describing his attitude towards flirting in the position he's in, and I completely understand where that fear is coming from. I highly doubt this feeling comes solely from the #metoo movement, and I find it ridiculous to claim he's playing the victim just because he's more cautious. I also find it weird to call this whining; he was being interviewed, and giving his opinion. That's not whining, that's answering a question. (I could be wrong about that; I didn't look at the interview, but my other points still stand)

I hate men that make themselves victims from the me too movement. If you're approaching a woman with respect you won't be accused of being a rapist. Just because women are starting to demand more respect and are being more vocal about assault and being in uncomfortable situations with men who are unaware of personal space, it doesn't mean all women think all men are rapists. Sure there are terrible women out there that do cry wolf when it comes to rape and assault but it's not an accepted way to act. No sane person is going out there accusing all men of being rapists and if you feel threatened by this movement then maybe it's a problem within yourself. If you're threatened by women not wanting to be treated like a piece of meat and feel like you can no longer approach women because of it. it says a lot about you honestly lmao.

I live in Ohio and the strip club no touch laws are strict and I see people arrested for it all the time, it may not happen where SHE was arrested in Ohio, but it happens ALL THE TIME in other areas of Ohio. While the law does protect strippers from being assaulted or groped while on stage, it's also used against them for very minor things on more occasions than I feel fair. I once witnessed a women get arrested for putting her hand on a mans shoulder for support to step down off stage, because she was topless at the time. If she had been arrested for any other reasons while here I would be a little more on board with it being a set up or sting, but being arrested for this and it having nothing to do with who she is or what is going on with her and the president is something that is actually 100% believable.

Yeah, #MeToo does drive good men from talking to women. Approaching a woman means putting yourself out there anyway, and on top of that now theres a fear of public embarrassment by being called out. I get the if you dont know the difference. argument. But, fear doesnt need to be rational. Women are hard to talk to, dating sucks, and now theres an irrational fear of legal or social consequences. I think that there should be serious discussion about what proper flirting looks like these days. Arguing that men already know whats appropriate and not easily falls apart under scrutiny, and I think Supermans statesmens reflect that.

I agree with Cavill 100%, and it's not anxiety meeting women, it's fear that what was flirting could now be construed as harassment. Both are subjective. How do you define flirting? How do you define harassment? Phil, you did a video a ways back about a survey that showed a percentage of the current generation considers looking at them harassment. No it's not as simple as Not raping someone to avoid being called a rapist, and to not acknowledge this problem while still agreeing that #MeToo is a wonderful and needed movement, I find disingenuous. I think he's not pushing back just out of fear of further backlash.

The story on Cavill was ridiculous. He made a great point, women can take these things out of hand if they misunderstood a man's original intention. He was stating his opinion, which he should not have to apologize for. Yes, the term 'rapist' should not have been there, but it also shouldn't have been blown out of proportion like it was; especially because it was easy to tell it was loosely used. People these days will tear you to shreds if you put an unpopular opinion out there, and that's the reason media is too corrupt.
