    Seems like many of the naysayers here believe that sexual assault only comes in one form and that the assault must be vicious/violent to actually even be considered assault. If that is what you think you are part of the problem. Do some research. That's usually not the case.

    I am blaming the parents of many of these teens. She was 17 and ends up in a hotel room with two grown up men over 30. Hellllooooo!!! How can this happen? Where were her parents, or anyone to protect her. Who is ok for their 17 year old daughter having dinner, or even hanging out with guys that age?? If your teenage daughter is too immature, dumb or too career driven to make smart decisions, you as a parent, or someone you can trust to protect her, has to be there.

    • @donaldbarnes3714
      @donaldbarnes3714 6 років тому +7

      It was not a hotel room but Brett Ratner "s apartment. She was in New York working as a model so her parents were probably in the heartland as Megyn Kelly stated early in the interview. Her parents probably raised her better then that but alone in the big city she made some bad decisions and now she is regretting them however Russell and Bret did noting illegal if she did not verbally say no. Her story doesn't make sense. At the beginning of the interview Megyn says she stated that she fought Russell off but she stated that she used body language. Closing her mouth or biting him would have been enough to send a message to stop but she did neither.

    • @Dragon-wl5ic
      @Dragon-wl5ic 6 років тому +1

      that all depends on the person Barbara. You might be a mature 17 year old today, but there are, and were many underage kids out there, being very naive and inexperienced. I certainly was a baby at 17, and I would have been overwhelmed in the presence of grown men.
      Maybe she thought she knew what she was doing and she might have felt extremely grown up. But when it comes down to situations like this, you are just a kid.
      And even for you, you say you have been sexually active. So what? That doesn't give you life experience or wisdom. That comes with age. And a 17 year old stands no chance with men over 30, it's simply a lack of life experience.
      I think a lot of young girls overestimate their "experiences" and maturity these days and end up in horribly wrong situations. It's not their fault alone, but I still blame the parents.

In churches and all around. You ate very aware of choices at 17 and much younger. People just hide behind age. You know right from wrong. Period. Its not an age thing here

    @c.e.stanton988 6 років тому +44

    'Fight' is the least common response. People usually freeze, sometimes they run and seldom do they fight back. Guys like to commonly use the fight or flight lie to make themselves feel better, but clearly, when you look at the history of all the oppression and abuse people have committed against other people, freezing and cooperating is the most common response, even among men.

    • @ShaveAss
      @ShaveAss 6 років тому +2

      I might be mistaken but I think the “fight or flight” response is instinctual in nature. Not limited to a specific gender but perhaps more of an instinct that exists in many species on this planet including humans. Not a guaranteed response however, the ladder being “submission” I imagine.

    i was working in sales and quit because the owner kept harrasing me and there was NO HELP everyone just said oh well get over it or quit. So I quit and lost my home due to having no money while I was out of work and had to live in my car for two months. No lawyer will take my case because the there is no money in it for them as it was a small company.
    There is no help or support for victims. I realized this when it happened to me even my own parents said to "be quiet and get used to it this is just apart of the working world."

    l agree women should speak out... but more importantly speak out BEFORE & DURING the sexual act to make it clear that it's assault and there is no consent... speaking out a loud clear verbal "No l don't want to do this" will help more than just a body Language "NO" which can be misinterpreted as playing hard to get...

It’s confusing, but meant to deal with systemic bias in the system. Civil Rights Act of 1964. Nonetheless sexual harassment in any form in the workplace is innapropriate and potentially illegal.

    At 7:19 Keri said "I almost don't even wanna speak against that because it's ludicrous (ref Russel's consensual claim)" I am not going to take sides but this statement is worded really tricky, because I'm left asking, was it clearly consensual or not?... Her defense is narrated in the grey area as is her story.... With that being said, I'm not taking Russel's side at all given his bad boy lifestyle... I remember on The Evolution of Hip Hop, Russel recollected that when he went to another country to perform in his heydays, the first thing he asked for upon arrival was "Cocaine and p*ssy".... He sounded like he was ordering a ham sandwich! But! We need to remember that SOME women are drawn to a man of his status and wouldn't mind being with him sexually... It's infuriating to know that a consensual sexual encounter is being used as assault and given media attention and maybe pay offs whereas there are REAL cases where women are forcibly abused and assaulted and are never even heard!

    you spent a weekend with a under age girl! where were her parents? And for the record when you want to clim the ladder the price can be bedding you get the financial reward, so mother have to talk to their daughters in some cases where the girl is sharp she may decide to sleep her way -up it is an option but one has to make that discussion their is no regrets, the fact is are you talented enough and she was so it was something not required but 17 is not an age where here mother should have left her along with a grown man!

      First of all, 17 is a GIRL, not a WOMAN. Any ADULT male needs to check himself if he's sexually turned on by those under 25yrs old. If he is, he's a pedophile, since, biologically, humans are not fully adults until 25 yrs of age. OBVIOUSLY the age of consent needs to be raised to have a legitimate base in biology, and not some arbitrary number. Maybe then these grown men will give their head a shake and stop predation against children!

Russell, no wonder Kimora got a such a huge settlement and sole custody of their children...his visitation is supervised only as well. He most likely traded custody of his children for her silence as to his true nature and lifestyle. Seriously...nice "buddhist" cover buddy. I mean WHO doesn't have shared custody these days? What did he do? Just an affair doesn't cause that...very fishy. I never liked that lithpy-talkin' bald man-child, creepy.

Yes she should be considered a child not old enough to be responsible in a situation together with two disgusting men taking full advantage of the situation.

Very old! to be more specifik. And second. Why do you even get started on this? Did it strike a nerve? Guilt? I dont know, im just guessing... Just ask your mother or any other sane woman if she thinks a situation like this is right. The problem with men getting away with molesting young women like this is the people defending them. Thats just about Enough with that now! There will be no silence no more! ✊✊✊✊

But do not express any more of your perverted fantisies or ideas in my thread. Because what you appreciate in my opinion - and the way you express it. Makes me want to vomit. And I simply do not know any more sensible way to put that. And the thing about your concern about the same age thing? We're talking 17 year old GIRLS here alright? And for that matter the same age thing, isn't that more of a problem for those mature women who date younger men?! Nevermind. Not my concern. Now please go on in your OWN thread about your appreciation of 17 year old GIRLS bodies and see how people will react to that. If you already removed your answer GOOD.

I wish I knew these things as a young adult and I am sure in some aspect all women can relate to certain parts of this lady's story. We have to learn to speak out, and speak up or these pigs will continue to try to violate us.

This young girl at 17 years old where is this girl's mom at? Kari at least you're not laughing much like the last two women did. I hope you teach your daughters never to go alone with any man especially a man that's almost double your age. And teach them to say no not body language or not feelings no means no and that's something you didn't say. How could you stay in that apartment after the attack happened take a shower and put back on your dirty clothes? I know you were a young actor at 17. but that's no way to try to make it at all. I hate to say this but never trust anyone in Hollywood or politics.
