    RSM:

    Have you seen this?

    Patricia Clarkson: ‘A white male actor should never complain about anything’
    https://www.theguardian.com/film/2016/jun/09/patricia-clarkson-learning-to-drive-interview

    …But with the shift in power comes a backlash. We discuss the largely male outrage at the female-fronted Ghostbusters reboot. A frustrated sigh comes from the cushions. She rolls her head back, prostrate on the sofa.

    “There are still so many movies made starring 50 men and one woman!” she says, half exasperated, half exhausted. “A white male actor should never be allowed to complain about anything. Shut up and sit in the corner. I mean, seriously!

    … Ghostbusters is a great thing and I love these actresses. I can’t wait to see it.”

    Is she concerned about the pressure on such a film to be successful? “Men make bad movies that bomb all the time but they’re like, ‘Oh, well, we didn’t do the marketing right,’” she says. “Eat me!”

    I tell her about the complaint of one white male actor, Game of Thrones star Kit Harington, who expressed disappointment at what he sees as a sexist double standard in the industry, saying he’s sick of talking about his hair and his body.

    “He’s a sex symbol,” Clarkson scoffs. “Get over it. You have an amazing career and you’re on a hot show. Take your shirt off.”

    Meh, transgenders are a sick joke, but I never thought feminists would tolerate “men” and men in their public bathrooms and locker rooms. Women are pretty vulnerable in locker rooms and bathrooms and are especially defenseless on the potty. What on earth are they thinking allowing and pushing the rights of “men” and men to share their public (which ought to be very) safe space? I’m no fan of feminism, but the lack of outcry on this one is vexing.

    Women are women, men are men and that ought to be enforced as regards the public potty. Good luck to them all, but God help them. Women will be raped in these situations and the community of transgenders will terrorize the media to keep it quiet. Ah well, let them all lose their souls and their safety.

    Next up on the advancing freak shows of permission? Legalization of the sexual violation of children, interchangeable with legalization of bestiality because “animals are people too”.
