it KILLS me the shock that ensues when powerful men have been shown to use that power to sexually harass women. We have known this for years. At long last we are not powerless to come forward!

Centuries

And in EVERY INDUSTRY. EVERY SINGLE ONE.

You would think that feeds FILLED with
#metoo
would teach them this was a pervasive problem, right? -
But you've seen the replies. It's either "she's doing it for attention", "BUT NOT ALL MEN", "she was asking for it" and the most infuriating one, "oh god, I can't even wave to a woman without being accused of harrassment now" Some GUILTY mysognists on here. Lots.

Ballet directors are some of the weirdest, creepiest people around. My wife used to be a professional ballerina. A bunch of old pervs (including the women).

It's an art that demands starvation for most of its performers apparently.I went to the Ballet last year in NY and the women were nearly transparent from thinness it was distracting to watch skeletons dance really was.

It's almost as if sexual harassment were written into the job description for ballet directors. Constant staring at and evaluation of women's bodies. Not to mention the creepy old guys or "gay" dancers that grab and touch all the women...

Every icon falling or being accused. Even the ballet world now being tarnished. So sad.

I’m baffled by your shock. It’s not like ballet is known for creating a space for women to be safe in their bodies.

He’s been known to be awful abusive to wife and other women FOR YERAS glad its coming out
-
I hate it every time and I’m glad every time. There must be nowhere left to hide.
