The new Tron: Ares got me thinking just how common Hollywood sex offender blockbuster stars are, compared to women in leading roles. Then I realized the same is true for directors, producers and whatnot. Then I realized that’s probably true as well for all official or otherwise roles of responsibility in companies, churches, any sort of union and everything else.
It’s insane our society looks like that.
Executive producers usually have overall control of the process, including cast selection in which they can override the casting director and pick their
biasactor.I think you’ll find that over time, most people engage in behavior that would label them as sex predators. Not necessarily in the eyes of the law, but in the eyes of their peers.
It’s just that hollywood actors tend to have more scrutiny on them than the average Joe, so their sexcapades come to light and they have to deal with the fallout.
That said, I have no idea who you are referring to. Didn’t even see the first tron movie because I don’t watch disney shit.
Not the OP, but I would assume he’s referring to Jared Leto’s multiple allegations of sexual abuse, including the time he was caught propositioning underage teenage models at the Maritime Hotel.
wait until you find out about billionaires and presidents
if women want to be equal in society, then why do they lead fewer criminal pedophile conspiracies?
"Pizzagate was a wild leap forward in social equality " is one hell of a take
yes friend here is the /s you were hoping for, i don’t actually support this literal take
Oh I didn’t mean it as a bad thing. It’s just …one hell of a take. I wish to subscribe to the chaos.
Respectfully and gently, this sounds like confirmation bias. Do we have any non-anecdotal supportive data? Or anything more substantial than “this just feels kind of right”?
Yup this is truthiness rather than truth
Agreed but it is just a shower thought; I’m not sure we need to hold shower thoughts to a high standard of capital T Truth
Anything presented as a factual claim needs to be true. OP didn’t pose it as a shower thought, they presented it as if it was a fact. A shower thought would be “I think there might be…”
Shower FACTS
Did you not see the comm?
What “comm” are you referring to?
“Comm” generally refers to “Community”, roughly analogous to a “subreddit” or “subforum”. It refers, in this case, to the /c/showerthoughts community we’re currently in.
K, and what’s your point? You apparently haven’t read the other comments on this page
I wonder if this could be proven with data.
None of those links do anything to discredit the claim, though.
That’s if you automatically assume the claim is true without evidence, though. Which wasn’t the original commenter’s position. The original position was whether you could prove OPs titular claim with data.
Thus far? The answer seems to be “Nope.”
That’s because thus far no one has provided any data that’s relevant to either side of the argument.
Aggregated lists of the “best” blockbusters with women leads are irrelevant to the discussion.
Then why take it as given that the claim needs to be proven false, rather than the other way around? Your mind seems to be made up before any reliable proof has even been presented.
I did no such thing. That’s you extrapolating incorrectly.
Literally all I said was that the provided information isn’t relevant to the discussion.
No, you said it doesn’t prove that the claim is false. Which isn’t even what they did. They expressed doubt and provided links supporting their doubt.
Of course it does. The links show there’s a huge number of blockbusters with women leads. So the onus is on the person making the original claim for it to be believed
But a high number of blockbusters with female leads still doesn’t contradict the claim.
The claim wasn’t that there aren’t any blockbusters with female leads, it was that there are more with men who are also sexual predators.
And those links don’t even show that there’s a high number of blockbusters with female leads. They’re just an aggregated list of the best profitable movies with female leads. You need to have the grand total of blockbusters, and the total number of blockbusters with female leads to draw that conclusion.
So youre saying it doesn’t prove anything, and thus OPs original claim is yet to be proven false. Or more importantly, proven true.
Yes, I’m saying the data provided has no relevance to the discussion one way or the other.
You mostly seem to be saying that OPs claim is absolute truth until proven otherwise. Which is a wild stance to take when, thus far, no proof has been given.
well, I mean, is there a time in Hollywood where you can go before and effectively everyone is a sexual predator?
Good people are too busy to become celebrities.
Think of the drama/music losers in high school, then think what they would do if they were popular all of a sudden.
You can say the same about athletes but they’re usually popular already and just pricks.
drama/music losers
as opposed to the losers who don’t join anything and do nothing with their lives huh?
You can say the same about athletes but they’re usually popular already and just pricks.
yeah bet you’re a REAL GEM.
Who do you think watches the sex predator movies…
The sex predator gender?
Oof, it doesn’t sound so good when you complete that thought out loud…
yes… women like to watch movies about male sex pests.
they write letters to all sort of trash in prison.
this is nothing about good or bad, this is just what is.
Keep talking
🤡
You being a bigot twoards men only helps maintain the patriarchy.
