Calling Out Gay Gate-Keepers in Hollywood for Sexual Harassment


Boy Culture wrote up charged posts by Ronnie Kroell, who made a name for himself in LGBT circles on the reality show "Make Me a Supermodel," and filmmaker Duncan Roy, who take gay Hollywood to task for its problem with sexual harassment, with Roy going so far as to name Bryan Singer, Bruce Weber, Terry Richardson.

Sexual harassment is obviously wrong in all of its forms. And I think it's valuable for male victims to speak out in solidarity. But while these entertainment-related abuses of power may be equally ruinous for men and women when it comes to their careers, I don't think it's apples to apples as far as trauma for male and female victims. Women are a thousand times more vulnerable physically. And the threat of rape or bodily harm -- and actual rape and bodily harm -- is a far cry from having your ass pinched at a party or a crude proposition, however wrong those also are.

No, this isn't a pissing contest. But sometimes I think it's important to keep things in perspective -- and male privilege is something women would kill for in these scenarios.
