- Terry Crews: "I am honored to use my platform and story to help create additional civil rights protections for survivors across the nation under the Sexual Assault Survivors Bill of Rights." Full Senate Judiciary Committee hearing video here: cs.pn/2tuOke7
I really like Terry even more now, not just because he's a hilarious actor, but because he's genuinely humble, honest, and is fighting for something incredibly valuable.
I’m buying crackdown 3 now
He doesn't know precisely what he's fighting for. He needs a Jordan Peterson's 12 Rules for Life.
Josh Monty lol so he’s manipulating you too? He’s not getting many acting deals so this is his way to draw attention to himself. His dick was grabbed long ago, but he was in his 30’s or 40’s. What grown man you know is distraught by another grown man touching him? I’m not saying he shouldn’t feel uneasy but he sounds like a woman who was molested as a little girl who couldn’t defend herself.
Venus Spacey you're entitled to that opinion
Josh Monty facts
It's sad that people say "we need to care more about men who are sexually assaulted too" but when men speak up about it, they often times get made fun of and ridiculed. The people who should be ridiculed are the gross assailants not the victims.
This should be taken seriously.
If this shit can happen to Terry Built-like-a-Brickhouse Crews, it can happen to anyone. It's not that easy to fight back if you think the person harming you can effectively put a stop to your whole career and ruin your life. Terrible things are happening behind the silver curtains.
Assass1n PR. He was sexually assaulted by a big wig talent agent who threatened his career. Grabbed him by the junk.
Hakuraita just because he didn’t do anything means it could happen to anyone
I took Terry Crews’ order at my last job i had in LA, he was huge but not scary or intimidating. He was soft spoken and kind. Sexual assault can happen to ANYONE (it happened to me multiple times) and Terry Crews is proof of that. Thank you Mr. Crews for using your platform to support and encourage the #MeToo movement.
We have your back Terry Crew. GOD BLESS YOU MAN.
Lol
This will change everything👍 Wow
bry rsx that food looks good
Lennon Myers really??😂😂😂😂
👏🏾👏🏾
holy shit
Wtf a lil nas x comment with 25 likes and 2 years ago
Yeah I wanna clap u
Lil Nas X with only 54 likes wtf
oh my god it's lili nsas zx
I'm.glad he spoke up. It gives men ease to see a man speak on his experience with sexual assault. The media makes it seem like men are punks for allowing such things, when they're real victims.
Jireh A. No women make us feel like punks
Jireh A. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂sit down
Thank you Jireh. It's hard to say such things because of the stigma. It was hard for me. I was at work when my bosses decided to play with me. It was humiliating, but I knew if I fought back, they would have me arrested. 5 of them, only 1 of me.
Brice Johnson
I'm.sorry for what they did to you. I'm glad you realize how unfair it is. God bless

True
Very true. I've seen women humiliate this guy because he got raped...by a woman. It happens but people are cruel and have no empathy
Very proud of you Terry ! Thank you for standing up for everyone!
I believe him, he is receiving a lot of flack and jokes. It makes sense, that if he would have blacked out on that producer they would have flipped the script on him and made him seem violent and like a mad man..
K Jo anything that is built on sexism is nothong but hate. This bill will oppress men so this bill must be faught and never enacted anywhere. If its built on labeling masculinity toxic its pure hate propaganda. People are toxic women included. In fact women are far more vindictive than men.
Doc Comeau I know so many men who do not have toxic masculinity. It is a power problem. And right now, and for most of time, men have the power. This does not say that there aren't women are who are victimizers; it's about protecting those who are victims. All of them.
Meg Servedio men have the power LMFAO. You women make up more than 60% of the elecetorate. Men holding the power is dead. All that is going on is women not wanting to give up special treatment and demonizing men.
Meg Servedio the women in any Western Nation could litterly vote every man in their country into servitude if the so chose. You outnumber us like 9 to 1. Toxic Masculinity is bullshit term to attribute disgusting traits to being inherently masculine or traits of men. When both sexist are capable and commit this type of bullshit. In fact statistically you women beat men more. Men just come forward less. Sorry but you are brainwashed.
Doc Comeau oookay buddy. Have fun living with that delusion and chip on your shoulder. Soooooo glad I'm a lesbian. Byeeeee.
The courage it takes to not only come forward with this, but to then sit and campaign for a law about it. Well done Mr Crews.
Buddy in the backs face at 0:24 lmaooo
ToNYD2WiLD aye wussup Tony I thought the same shit haha
Had me rolling the entire time
BWHAHAHAHAHHA... "OH SHIT!"
Looking twins lmao
ToNYD2WiLD 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Terry Crews is one of the most well spoken people I've had the pleasure of listening to. You can tell that he is a genuinely good person, not cocky because he's shredded or a successful actor and athlete. Hands down my one of favorite actors.
Terry Crews is 6'3 and probably 250lbs, if someone will go up to him and grab his junk i cant imagine what they do or say to women.
George Sharmar true!
Maybe the agent's type aren't women and children
Because he's been neutered by Hollywood that's not the normal response to someone grabbing your junk go test it for yourself
230
George Sharmar my father is 6'6(or 7" I'm not sure) and nearly 300 pounds of pure muscle and has come forward to me about how he was sexually assaulted in a club by a woman after hearing about Terry Crews. Gender, size, clothing, weight do not matter to an abuser. What matters is power. She knew that my father will not act because she's a woman and she was way smaller. She knew that he would be left defenceless and powerless against her. The attacker does not care for you or your build the attacker only cares for the control they have over you.
Terry I feel for you. Thank you so much for having the courage to stand up for yourself. I’m sorry this happened to you.
Much respect to you sir!!! So much respect! Thank you for using your story to speak out! THANK YOU!
Man. What can I say? Terry Crews is an outstanding & genuine human being.
Why homie on the right looks like he finna bust out laughing
Lynx Bruh Kmsl. I know right. lol 😂
Cause he the leader of the nut grabbers
Veli 204 "the nut grabbers" lmaoo
Breanna Gibson guess we think alike lol
😂😂😂
Thank you, Terry Crews. You deserve to be heard just like everyone else. Hopefully, you’ve inspired others, who might’ve felt embarrassed, to come forward.
We got your back, Terry! After I found out about this case, my respect and my adoration grows even more for this man. Thanks for standing up and tell the truth.
Masculinity isn't the problem.
Power-seeking is the problem.
+playlists
*CITATION NEEDED
It's not that masculinity is the problem. It's that the so-called toxic masculinity that exists is the problem.
Brad F. Toxic behavior in men does not mean that there is toxic masculinity. There's also toxic behavior in women, but we don't go around talking about toxic femininity. Can we stop trying to gender toxic behavior and just call it out when it happens?
JONES It's not a thing. It's a bs term I made up to point out how ridiculous "toxic masculinity" is. Toxic people aren't toxic because of how masculine or feminine they are. Toxic people are usually toxic because they have a warped sense of reality, that makes them believe they're somehow more important, or better, than others
JONES Toxic Masculinity is the battlecry of sexist ugly whores. People are toxic women included.
Outmost respect to you and your family mr.Crews for mustering up the courage to come forward and fighting for a cause…
It takes a real one to speak up like this. Especially in the ghetto, there is a stigma, and men who come forward with these things get ostracized and humiliated. Thank you for helping others have the power to do the right thing. My respect for Terry has only gone up throughout the years.
This is why Terry Crews is my hero. He is more than a meme. He is a Man, a *true* man. A gentleman
Terry Crews is such a brave man! Toxic masculinity pushed onto boys since they are young tell them not to cry because it's weak, or not to admit to what Terry has come forth to reveal. Crying and being human is just that, being human. Anyone deserves to cry and not be ashamed for it, or be ashamed of being sexually assaulted. It happens to everyone, men, women, and children alike. Everyone deserves justice without being ridiculed and antagonized for coming forward.
Akiza3762 the reason men shouldn’t cry is because you need to be there for your woman when she is! Also brace and man can’t go without each other without masculinity so how is it toxic?
James Gaydarzhi what are you even trying to say?
YOUR LAME AS FUCK the roles of men and women have changed over time though. We started out as animals where men dominated cus we're naturally stronger and fitter and women were naturally suited to provide and look after children. But we don't live in caves and speak through grunts now, do we? We've evolved through technology and other forms of society to the point where a man and women can be equally capable to perform the same task. Don't be fucking stupid
We should also stop the toxic femininity that is damaging young boys
Dissonantia Cognitiva what do you mean by toxic femininity? Not bashing it, just never heard it before.
God bless you Terry!!! More power to you!!!! So much for love you and what you are doing!! True role model!
Thank you Mr. Crews. This similar thing that happened to you happened to me and it has been difficult, but your willingness to come forward has let me know I'm not the only one. You are a great man.
Thank you for speaking up!!
Proud of you brother
God bless Terry for coming forward and backing this bill.
I admire Mr. Crew's bravery and courage by placing a spotlight on Hollywood producers exposing the cruel reality of abuse of power.
We need more genuine, real people like Terry.. So much respect for him.
Dude didn't even stutter. He was really in the moment. Man, what a cool guy.
Terry Crews good for you, Sir.
Terry crews great job for standing firm on this issue. Theres still a lot of people hiding from this, they need to confront and expose these sexual assaulters from Hollywood. But it's ashame how on minute 5:40 the female in the gold attire turns to her phone like she's bored. That's exactly what's wrong with politics if it's not happening to them, they don't care.
Isaac Barragan don’t assume it makes you look stupid. You don’t know what was she doing on her phone.
I noticed that too. We need to figure out who she is.
Andre Erdna im sure its a life or death situation she cant hold on for a few minutes... look how desperate she is to tap on that lol
matarono then why don't she leave? Its disrespectful to terry crews
Jackie Montrose so i guess you never heard of sarcasm lol
Thank you Terry, you beautiful man.
God Bless you and your family.
I'm so proud of him!
What an impressive testimony! Grreat job!
Get this video many many many views and likes! Thanks for speaking out Mr Crews 💛💛💛
Thank you Terry crews for being brave and telling the truth.
What a legend. Nothing more to say
You are Amazing Terry!
I salute you Terry Crews for your courage to speak up. Nohing but Respect from me to you.🙏
It takes soul searching courage to put you career on the line.
It's crazy how it doesn't matter who you are, things can happen period. If I had never heard about it from him, I would've never believed he went through a sexual assault as an adult man. What has this world become? Glad I took the time to understand these situations from people who've been through these ordeals.
Way to take a stand and fight back against these evil doers Terry God Bless you and your family 🙏🏻❤️ All Glory to God and his way of Life Amen!!! 🙏🏻😇❤️
You're such a good person Terry....God bless you...
Terry Crews,You’re my Hero....
Never knew terry was a nfl player
they do not want folks to know
Brandon Nance he mentioned it a couple of times on his old show Are We There Yet
Lol. He was on the practice squad for a few seconds
Anastasia Collier you obviously don’t know shit, check his stats he played for 6 years
He also is an artist. He made “comics” for the happenings in courtroom procedures. Like the ones you see on the news. Very cool.
God Bless you Terry!!! So many men who have been victims and women, have had the door kicked down by you. This is amazing!
I stand with you Terry! Your career may be over after this but you are an inspiration! ❤
Terry Crews is a great guy. We love him.
THANK YOU TERRY 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
God bless you man!
THANK YOU!!! Terry Crews God bless you! 🙏🙏🙏
Terry Crews!! Thank you my man!
Thanks for speaking out the real,your the face of a real MAN
Respect to you!!!!!
People on their phones while he is pouring his heart into this speach really ticks me off.
It can happen to men too. We don't talk about it as much, but it's really important that Terry Crews is standing up for himself and drawing attention to this.
Nobody has been held accountable
Awesome Terry! thank you.
so proud of him❤️❤️❤️
Terry is 1000x more man than any of these nasty rats in the comment section. Good on him for speaking out. I have gained some respect for him and I hope he and his family are doing well. I hope this gets passed! 🌸
And the truth is there are many others that won't speak the truth because they're embarrassed
April Williams take that mop off your head
Lol I see that we have a comedian here so let me give you your mic and stage continue on
It's is embarrassing. I happen to me to. No one takes you seriously. I even went to the EEOC to tell them what my bosses did to me and they did not take me seriously. The woman at the EEOC told me it would be wiser for me to stay silent about it so AT&T doesn't blacklist me. And I stupidly believed. But, fuck them all. Terry Crews has made me know I'm not alone. He is a great man.
It’s amazing that Terry Crews comes out to explain his ‘me too’ case. The assumption that when your against a person of power that ANYONE ... no matter WHO you are can hold against you can wield can just ‘fight back’ is frustrating as hell. It’s funny how NO ONE in holiday stands firmly you him, or perhaps I’ve missed this ...
A large, dark skin Blackman being humiliated ... this would NEVER happen ... right? There sure are some sick individuals that truly do think they hold the keys to power.
Eventually .... all things come to an end. Terry Crews you are great sir 👍🏾
So important.
Good job Terry Crews
Well said.
I really don't care. If it happen it's wrong.
So glad Terry is doing this. There are many men who are abused but don't feel they can tell anyone.
Terry is the man so brave even stronger inside than out
First of all, according to my experiences
You are not able to take any action in that very moment. It is beyond frightening and angering. It breaks you for that moment. You feel weaker than you've ever before. It is so traumatic that you might not even completely remember it afterwards. You still can't believe it happened to you. In that moment, you are first questioning your senses if it's actually really happening because it is so unexpected.
Secondly, men like Terry can break in that moment too. Anyone can.
Thirdly, you cannot blame what decision he made in that moment. He was traumatized.
Brave *MAN* breaking the chains *THANK YOU SIR* for your courage.
This was a great thing to do terry crews is a great human being
I applaud Terry Crews for standing and not backing down. Mad props my brother.
Hi terry. My mom shut me down at 8, 13, and 20. All years of my life where I was raped and she didn’t believe me. Thank you. When I was 13 she told the cops I was a slut and to go away. Thank you. Thank you terry. Thank you for seeing how pushed down us victims are. Thank you for being strong. It is so hard. Thank you terry. I love you.
I love the fact that your speaking the truth Mr.Crews 😍😍
April Williams black female's with fake hair strike again
king Irseal that's an old pic my hair is natural now try again
@@gizmodee4506 Typical internet Jackass
gizmo dee fuck off
We support you Terry!
RIP Terry Crews
There are plenty of females that sexually harass males too, we should speak out too.
absolutely
Mr Crews, I commend you!
WHAT A STRONG MAN.....TO TAKE THIS STAND....WOW.....
*God bless you, Terry Crews.*
You're a real Man ❤️🙌🏼👌🏼
I think Terry is a freaking G for coming out and telling his story. What bothers me are the two African American men behind him who seem to take this as a joke? I mean, police violence against Blacks and other minorities in the US is a serious issue. I just think the same amount of passion and support given to those who lost their lives to police violence should be given to an individual who is coming before the senate and testifying for all victims. To sit in the background as a black man and appear to be laughing and smirking is disrespectful and rude....thats just my opinion. I am not trying to argue...just saying.
I’ve always loved Terry Cruz.
The facial expression of the man on the left at 0:27 is priceless, it's as if his forehead wrinkles are saying: "No way bro!"
Respectful Mr. Crews. Good speech
Guy on the right next to Terry is laughing or he has a joker face that he can’t control
You go boy!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Well said, Mr. Crews. 🔥
Please tell me who the guy with the smirk on his face is sitting to Terry's left side. This guy has to be there for a reason so who is he? It's almost as if he's trying really hard not to burst out laughing as Terry Crews was speaking. Anyone else feel the same?
David Johnson lmao his eyes after he said it lasted minutes
David Johnson 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah. Unfortunately he probably didn't hear Terry's account before the #MeToo movement.
😂😂😂😂😂🙄
Toxic masculinity
Those fools in the back tho! 🤣😆
What a weird Old Spice commercial
A Brave Man...
5:39 looks like they had more important things to be looking at on there phones.
I just saw that and your comment came.
Man, stop judging without knowing. You don’t know if one of her relatives was sick and she was checking, or her kids were home alone and they texted her, or it was something really important, stop judging without knowing
He's the man what can i say
Amazing Guy !!
RESPECT
Only bullies and harassers will dislike this statement.
You go Terry!
Grym nobody said that. Also, be careful with the words you use buddy. If you have nothing nice to say, stfu 😘.
