....and now Loius C.K

Easy cowboy. I'll admit it isn't much - most of what I know comes from skimming reddit threads & the like & hearing stories from film editors & videographers on contract at Kink. The latter sounds like it offered some of the best workplace practices in the industry, though it still sounds like working there was a shitshow.

If you felt like sharing your knowledge, I'd be an interested audience.

Mrs. and I both worked in front of the camera at kink.com. The editors know nothing, they were after the fact tech people who rarely met performers and never on a shoot. The videographers we knew never had any complaints, and their input and interaction on shoots was very limited.

I guess I misunderstood you. It seemed like you were trying to walk the behavior back to mitigate its effects as sexual assault because they could leave at any time without fear of violence.

Sure, i could have left that movie theater too. But I was so horrified by what was actually taking place behind me that I didn't.

Does that make it ok?

I really appreciate your keyboard quarterback input on how I should have handled a particularly horrifying episode of my formative years. Especially how it has led me to this outcome.

This trend of slaying anyone who alegedly did something wrong is concerning. I have been staying away from most of the hollywood drama, but is anyone really surprised that women sleep their way into positions? Is anyone surprised that there are sleazy people who will take advantage of their willingness to do this?

You too, rape apologist.

I don't know what you consider to be persuading, but to my mind there's a shift in intent between "can I take my penis out" and getting completely naked and masturbating in front of someone. But you do you.

A number of years back I saw Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas at a Terry Gilliam Film Festival in Marin. During a portion of the movie, the guy behind me was jerking off in his seat, to climax. Fucked me up on that movie ever since. So I can definitely understand how non consensual sexual deviancy can fuck a person up. And no, your tinder dick pics aren't acceptable either.

The weirdest thing about Louis C.K. is that part of his comedy was warning women about people, well, like him.

It kinda blew the corner and went in to the bales a few pages ago.

Well let's look at this objectively. If you would have done something it may have set you on a path of being strong enough to handle this situations in the future.

Do you think that since you did nothing and just sat there in fear it may have set you on a victim path?

We teach this at the academy to kids. Would you like to come to a class? I'm being serious. Being a victim is a horrible thing and I don't want anyone to feel that way.

I'd love to think that that is how I would handle the situation now. Gratefully, that hasn't happened since then, in that same sort of context, but I have reacted similarly to other socially inappropriate situations, etc.

But that's me now, not me 17 years ago. I was at a very different point in my life at that time, shaped by forces that were different and much fresher in my mind. I tried to relate the experience so folks here might have some sympathy, not for me but for the women who had this experience with Louis CK. Instead I get told to grow a pair.

Which, in hindsight, I should have expected. I am on barf after all.

Hey thanks for sharing. Didn't know that happened 17 years ago. There are things that happened to me many years ago that I look back at with a wtf.

Since this is barf - Does this mean I can whip out my peenor in your general direction now? :twofinger

Fear and Loathing was rated R, yes?

How old were you when an audience member scarred you?
 
Off topic, but an interesting tangent to speculate on. Since it was a film festival screening of, "Fear and loathing in LV", possibly/hopefully it was a performance art simulation by the person behind you?

Some sort of crude homage to the type of gonzo decadence depicted in the film, an antagonistic attack on social norms. Either that, or maybe it was screened at the Strand theater in SF when it was still pretty skeezy.
