    A third woman who worked on a recent movie of Freeman's recalled an incident at the film's wrap party. "He was looking at my breasts, and I told him, 'My eyes are up here.' Then we went to take a group photo and he pressed himself up against me. It was inappropriate."

    FFS, the woman has every right to be creeped out and avoid him now, but was that really worth reporting?

    • today even looking and admiring a woman is considered almost rape. fuck that shit!renderedred
    • i find myself walking in the street and if it's dark and i walk behind a woman i cross the street, you never know...renderedred
    • that's just polite. Why wouldn;'t you make it clear to a woman on her own in the dark that you're not a threatFax_Benson
    • why should i make it clear, isn't that the default? not a threat. why should i feel like a threat when i'm not?renderedred
    • wtf?Fax_Benson
    • sometimes I accelerate and walk and talk to the woman while walking the same bit of dark street together. takes away the walking alone in a dark street element.uan
    • I stand outside my single female neighbour's front door until she gets home because it's a communal hallway and fuck her, why should I change my habits?Fax_Benson
    • @fax, don't get me wrong, i want to be and i am nice to women but sometimes it's just comical. i walk the street at night,renderedred
    • and see women pulling out their phones while walking past, just because i am a relatively big guy (190cm) have long hair and a beard. fuck that!renderedred
    • sometimes i even try to smile, or say "good evening" to defuse the "situation", once a girl told me "don't talk to me, this is harassment!"renderedred
    • maybe they've been attacked in the past. or their friend has. And they don't know why you're behind them in the dark. They don't know you're a nice guyFax_Benson
    • can't believe I'm actually saying this.Fax_Benson
    • since that instant of "good evening" being "harassment" i gave up, if there is a woman within 5 meters i just move away. is that normal for you?renderedred
    • normal to me is not deliberately taking the opportunity to make a woman (or anyone) potentially feel anxious by walking behind them in the darkFax_Benson
    • when you don't have to, which is what I thought you were saying.Fax_Benson
    • sure, i don't want to make anyone anxious. ;)renderedred
    • so i should be anxious about that...renderedred
    • you'll manage, you're a big ladFax_Benson
    • LOLZ @faxrenderedred
    • that's why we can't have nice thingspango
    • You're both idiots for having that conversation.sofakingback
