As a man.... when I was a boy, I was actually assaulted. When you lie about things like that, it's kinda insulting... and as I type this, I heard you say disrespectful. I am open and honest about my past. I am unafraid to say things. I'm no longer shy about the things I've gone through. I was abused
@@Lady_RobinHood I've got a lot of... I dunno, I guess PTSD type memories, but I'm still alive, and that's all that truly matters. Thank you for the kind words
@@STORMDAME Hey, here's the thing, it happened, I had to deal with the pain for a long time, but I'm ok. I will be ok, thank you for the love. I cry quite a bit, but I woke up and took another breath. I'll be ok
I stand with you when I was 15 I was groomed and r worded before I was 18..... And I was with the guy until I was 19. I was also r worded by a male cousin of mine I'm a bi 24 year old woman now and I tried to take my life when I was 18 my family doesn't know accept my parents..... And brother which my brother doesn't believe me about my cousin which just cuts deeper in me.
baby reindeer was so amazingly written and made. Also as an SA Victim it was so amazingly done and portrayed the feelings perfect. Richard Gadd is so brave for making the show and sharing his story how he did. He showed the not so favorable things about himself too which I really respected
This woman would have came forward she has mental health issues she doesn't take any blame for her actions the fact that she has a history of this I don't understand women or men like her ❤
As a male survivor, it’s actually impossible to believe people are taking her side. If it were a man going on piers Morgan calling their victim a liar, there’d be absolutely nobody taking sides apart from maybe misogynistic 12 year olds on tiktok.
I'm in no way trying to diminish your experience as a male survivor but female survivors are also disbelieved and dismissed. I think SA needs to be taken more seriously by the authorities and general public whatever the gender of the victim.
I think of the roles were reversed , people would be open minded. There are more people willing to hear both sides than you think ….especially after the Amber Herd trial. Most people know when someone is yelling the truth and most people know that she isn’t. I’m not trying to make this about me, but I was in a stalking/harassment situation for two years, and when I eventually told my boyfriend, he stopped it. He went and confronted him and the phone calls and the texts and the turning up at my house stopped, but the guy in question started a bunch of different, really vicious rumours about me. I never tried to defend myself because I was too tired ….. but this is just what people who act like this do. The best thing he can do is let herself catch herself out to the people who do believe her.
1) i feel like the guy's a victim, I don't think he could've lied about it because netflix wouldn't have opened themselves up to a lawsuit 2) Piers Morgan should not have had her on because she's obviously mentally unwell 3)They found wrong person I wanna know who the rpist is!!
3- Maybe the right person since he's being shielded by Google. Try to look him up. And he too looks exactly like his fictional version. 2- Thank you. She's been damaged and exploited enough. If Gadd was decent himself, he'd have sued her at the time imho, but he was too busy leading her on and collecting creative material. 1- I think he was a victim too and Baby Reindeer is his revenge piece better served cold. Sent with my broken English from the loveliest country in South America.
i cried so much at this series i found the series heavy and powerful and a strong message it was genuinely amazing. The series was the best thing in media today to show how male victims feel when trying to come to terms to tell the police that they also can be victims.
The way I've watched dozens of videos on this, but you are the only person who has said what needed to be said! Everyone else is just having a pathetic row about who's right when the point of it all was to empower victims of SA and sufferers of mental illness! Fiona can sue or whatever, but let the media coverage be about the important topics!
You might say this later in the video and I'm only 5 minutes in, but the fact she's in the news today for sending Keir Starmer 276 messages including things like "Your life won’t be worth living." and things about his family is INSANE.
So glad to see you doing a video on this topic. This entire programme is just crazy, with so many loopholes. I agree with your thoughts throughout the video. I do find it odd that he didn’t use characters that looked nothing like the real people, I only mostly find that odd. But there’s no way Fiona never watched any of the programme/show. There should be no team, with him or her. We should be looking at the facts and what’s actually the truth, than just picking a “team”.
@@eleanor39That’s not what I mean. He used people who are quite similar in looking, such as the actor who plays Martha and Fiona’s appearance. I just find it odd, that it was chosen to be like that and portrayed like that. It should have been people who don’t look similar at all, due to the risk of the internet being deranged and looking for these people. Such as what has happened.
@@TSD0X I agree with you There are so many loopholes here casting is normally done by the casting director but with specifications from the creator director producer and the final say would be the production company and the commissioning team would be netflix as a development producer who has had her first funded commission by screen Scotland my script went through so many drafts and we had to have it approved . There loads of issues that Netflix should have been on top of and so should the producer my concern is the damage to Richard Gagg welfare and wellbeing as this is way to stressful for anyone to do through ❤ he has admitted he did things wrong he was not in the right headspace how hard was it for him as this such a personal story 😞 how will he come back after this he has the right to privacy and some members of the public went against his wishes did not care what he wanted that for me is another abuse that he been put through they decide to speak for him when he asked them not looking for them this issue lays at neficks feet my fear is what about other stories that need to be told that about abuse of deaf disabled human trafficking further sexual abuse from male victims how can we tell their stories without the fear of this happening a victim becomes a victim again and this vile woman gets to be interviewed although she was not convicted of stalking as it very hard to convict someone who cyber stalks you and even harder for a man as men are less likely to report it xx
@@MariaZani-rr2wyYeah I know it would be done by Netflix with the actors, Richard would have taken a small percentage part of it though. We need to look out for his well-being, because it’s his that’s been damaged, if everyone is completely true. And I won’t sit here and say it’s not otherwise.
Omg fr.. Everywhere on shorts and tiktok they say womp womp to the guy! This is about horror and SA this is horrible.. But if course humanity only cares about themselves!
I’d like to ask. They said that they would do anything and everything to keep their identity 🤫 but it seems the only person they’ve protected is the grapist.. they made Martha very easy to find.
I had heard a different creator discuss how she had read that the real life Martha looked nothing like the woman who was cast. It opened a discussion that a fat woman was cast and played into the sexually aggressive role.
She claims to not have seen the actress, but not only does she describe her, later in the interview she comments on watching interviews with the actress where "she doesn't even sound Scottish" (because the actress isn't Scottish), but i do not for one second believe she has no idea what the actress looks like.
You’re like such a lovely youtuber this video should deff have more views😽😽😽😽 I’m sorry that you feel represented in the show although at the same I’m glad that the show has a realistic description of what it feels like
Regardless of the hate from ignorant people, he made more male victims come forward. He made actual change with the series & no one can take that away from him.
as much i love to bash netflix for doing crappy things with their platform and in general, they actually don't cast the shows they present on their steaming service; directors/crews come to netflix with their projects for them to produce the show on their service. so shame on the crew for the casting of baby reindeer!
maybe there will be more male allies when male victims and female perpetrators are treated with the same regard as their opposites... maybe more men will champion women's rights when we can be intellectually honest about women's wrongs
I was saed When i was younger, thinking it was a game and that it was just for fun. Nobody knows about it, only me and the members who did it. The people who did it are a main part of my life and I still love them… idk what to do I was only 7
only thing i have to say about this is that it says at the beginning ’this is a true story’ but richard has admitted to dramatising and adding segments to the series which surely then means it’s not a true story? in no way am i defending fiona but due to this fiona has every right to sue him for defamation, which she is doing. all he had to do was say ‘inspired by true events’, not ‘this is a true story’
tbh i get the darrien thing but him going back to Martha, that one was the one that broke me because Darrien was probably not going to change but i just feel like if Martha was genuine, Donny going back to her most likely brought them back to square one in their healing journeys. Man, I do get him going back to Darrien but whyyy Martha. But rewatching it for the second time, I get it :/
I'm chronically online,I MOD for Legal Vices every day but I still can't comprehend why the Internet did all this.Maybe because I'm not a sad sack or a nutter
what makes this worse is going down tik tok comments on these types of videos while I've seen men making jokes on this I've seen more women making jokes and somehow finding a way to spin it round on him and blame him for her actions. Then if a man tries explaining to them why they're wrong, they get closed down and invalidated real fast by whoever is writing such stupid comments. All I can think is what if the roles were reversed? As much as that question seems to cause issues, I think it is a very relevant one when it comes to baby reindeer. I doubt you would see the same people spinning it round on her especially the women who are guilty of doing the things mentioned in this video. Instead you would see mostly nothing but support to the woman and nothing but hate towards the man. This stuff is very serious and shouldn't happen to anyone so it's sad seeing someone, especially a man come forward and speak out about what he went through just for people to make a joke of it. Anyone doing this should hang their heads in shame and think about how it would make them feel if they were in Richards shoes.
Yeah i think if someone made a showabout me where they were saying some life ruining stuff potentially I'd try to be above it but id break after a week or 2
2:05 Yeah but he made her sound exactly like her,look like her but younger, have identical mannerisms and talking style. It seems like he wanted her to be found he didn't even change her surname.
hey! just wondering if you knew that the tv static background makes all the video clips super fuzzy through youtube's encoding? i love your vids, it just makes some sections hard to watch. ty for the great content recently!
damn that’s so odd! i did not know! when i watch it through post edit i can never tell that! but i’ll for sure change it for next time!! thanks for telling me :))
cheers for the video but you had me looking for my mouse pointer for a brief moment at the start, it got camoed in the white noise, and Kati I hope your ok
I love your vid as u speak true facts, ik some guys who are victims of sa, i myself (im trans ftm though) are a victim of sa and yh like me and some my guy mates who have discussed it agree this world is messed tf up, not cuz just of stuff like this happening but also then peoples reaponse and people never know the extent of how sh1t u feel when seeing all of this people making thurst traps on a guy who was sa and graped is disgusting and we honestly dont get it. Like its hard to see this happening as it also based of what my mates have said they are even more afraid of reaching out and talking about their sa more then ever because of the way people have responded to this, some poeple yes have been amazing and responded in a way that is understandable and not causing issues but majority are responding in a way that has not only given this woman a bigger platform but also not actually rearlised or taking into account of what happened where as if it was the other way around people wod be taking the girls side and not richards side its vile and yh im glad ur raising it on that side as well
I hated and loved it, I cringed so hard! The trans character (As a trans fem) I thought was blooming brilliant though I don't know why many trans people didn't like her and the portrayal of trans people.
I want to thank you for exposing the people who make thirst trap videos on Richard gadd. It isn’t fair from a male point of view. Regardless of gender if Richard was a woman people would never make those types of videos. It’s double standards.
I do believe Richard asked Fiona to sleep with him. He said he was thinking about her during his personal "hands-on" intimate times. Sounds believable to me.
I was very frustrated with people who did this. I have been a victim of S/A, and recently I reported the person who did it to me. This type of topic is so serious. I don’t understand why people think this is a joke. I wish people realize this is some real traumatizing shit that shouldn’t be joked about at all. I don’t care who you may be this shit is a very serious topic in my defense.

Her body language was calling her out also. She's not well mentally.
I feel Fiona would have come out even if she hadn't been found, the way she acts on the interview and her behaviour kind of show that
wouldn’t be shocked tbf

Dammit it's just the Dahmer show all over again. I should really just expect this when netflix releases a biopic / documentary 😮💨
I just know Richard Gadd is looking at us right now after Fiona Harvey has come forward, saying to himself “I told you so”
1) i feel like the guy's a victim, I don't think he could've lied about it because netflix wouldn't have opened themselves up to a lawsuit
