If we’re going to start calling to account every performer who goofed around backstage, there’s going to be hundreds and hundreds of thousands of people in trouble. And for what? Goofing around backstage.

When you're a star, they'll let you do anything--shove your tongue in their mouth, photograph them in sexually humiliating situations...
 
So he mimed groping a woman through her flak jacket. He knew she would see this picture and be humiliated. Man, rape culture never sleeps; these guys are always one or two steps ahead.
 
QUESTION: Has Al Franken been photographed groping a sleeping woman's breast other than "the woman's"?

Fact: it only counts if it is pattern.

Fact: Appearing in Playboy or eating at Hooters is basically a one grope free card.

Holy smokes, this thread, yo.....

Not to mention it's a fake grope, he's not actually touching her.

Not what I said at all but your post is not surprising. This was my point: "You would think she had a gazillion worse complaints to be made."

I most certainly don't believe if you are a model or waitress at Hooters it is expected of you to be groped.

This is the exact problem. As long as people consider this sort of behaviour just "Goofing around backstage" it will continue to happen because it's seen as acceptable. It's not.

Think there weren't any pics of men asleep in various poses that were passed around and joked about?

If someone had a photo of them taken while groping or pretending to grope a sleeping guy's junk, then I'd expect them to step down from any leadership positions too.

Do you really believe what franken was accused of doing and what trump was accused of doing are equivalent ?

Really ?

If this happened the way tweeden described, there are plenty more women.
And yeah, if they come out, bye bye franken.

And what if they don't? What if this woman's experience amounts to her being pissed at being the butt of the groping joke and didn't like the skit, maybe resented the subject matter, disliked Franken, whatever?

Then what?

Is every actor that kissed in a skit a potential harasser? Have you seen Game of Thrones? 50 Shades?
 
#MeToo (but only if there is at least two... no hooters waitresses either)

ReElect Al!

The photo humiliates and demeans her via a sexual reference, imo.

I'm sure it was passed around to the boys to giggle over.

Can you explain how this photo would humiliated her ? I mean, she's an innocent victim ? She should be humiliated because she went to sleep, fully dressed ?

Also (anyone can answer) why hasn't this photo been circulated until she circulated it, if it was for humiliation purposes ?

Doesn't cause much humiliation hidden away from public sight does it ?

Seems like the only one humiliated here is franken ?

I remember a San Diego sports figure grabbed a handful of some "waitress". She sued in civil court and won. One dollar. Seems that with her past, the crime was akin to shoplifting.

This lne seems like another has-been making a last grab at the lime light.

If no one else comes out to say franken acted this way towards them, I move the idea that hannity/stone put her up to this out of the 'CT' column and move it towards the 'something to consider' column.
