I look forward to the day when the amount of pedophilia and abuse in Hollywood is as exposed as that in the Catholic church today. It's gone on for too long.

Modern society is not filled with saints. In the future we will be looked upon just as harshly as we look upon those in the 16th century.

But we are making progress. We are calling out our devils.

You didn't feel like it was a big deal at the time? Do you feel like it was a big deal now? Would you say that what Roman did has caused a lot of harm or pain in your life afterwards?

I saw in a lot of your other comments that the judicial case was a lot more traumatizing, which I can totally understand--one incident was private, one was very public...

Oh, I see much more beauty than ugliness in the world. It seems like you come from a similar mindset. <3

It's tough, because Hollywood is a crown jewel of American/global culture, and our Celebrities are our royalty. I completely agree, because there's such an incentive to go along with it (like tsnye has said, she wanted to make it further, and abuse is seen as just another cost to play the game).

I just hope it gets to the point where the women who are entering the entertainment industry are raised to have simply zero tolerance for any sort of abuse or harassment, and that they will be the voice to finally call out the issue. After all, we need women to play women characters...
