//Your point is well stated. I haven't a bit of sympathy for these wanna be actresses willing to defile themselves for a chance at celebrity, and then try to rewrite that history decades later. I have less of a problem with Jennifer Lawrence blowing a slob in exchange for a career, than I do with her coming out several years and millions of dollars later and claiming victimization.
That said, there are reports that Weinstein made countless passes at anonymous females unlucky enough to have to cross his path; waitresses, hotel clerks, reporters, etc., and those are the people I have sympathy for.//

It's impossible to say whether this is a good summarisation of the situation, because we are only viewing from outside the Hollywood bubble.
Incidentally, for those who didn't make it all the way through the 1,900 word piece, here's something to mull over from the end.
//For a lot of Jewish men, the entertainment industry is their conduit to meeting beautiful non-Jewish women. Think about it; how else is a fat, nerdy Jew-boy from the coasts ever going to come into contact with hundreds of pristine shiksas from the Midwest and Europe? A yid like Harvey Weinstein was only able to get in the same room as someone like Kate Beckinsale because of her dreams of stardom and his ability to produce successful films.//
Yikes.

The guy's a schmuck, but even scmucks should have fair hearing. This piece by Taki, who knows him very well and for a long time, was also in last week's Spectator.

It's not a horrible bigoted article at all. It may not be written in a lefty liberal PC fashion but that doesnt make it bigoted.
I can't see how Weinstein can ever get a fair trial, but then these days Trial By Media seems to be the rage. Gone are the days of innocent until proven guilty all it takes is someone with a grudge on Twitface and some poor sod is marked for life.
Not saying Weinstein is innocent, but then at present he is not Guilty in the eyes of the law either. But you would not think so by many articles written about him. If he is guilty I think it will be the trial by media that 'gets him off'.

Another one who thinks that some members of the female of the species know exactly what they want and the only way they know how to get it.
