That's precisely the point. The topic is touchy, and therefore once a girl says she was molested, people simply believe her, and while most of these reveals are true, in that giant swarm of them that poped up lately, there are some false accussations, too. If you said Weinstein molested you as well, most people would believe you. And you could even do it anonymously.
Besides show-business is built around constructs that allow a person to get advantage by a certain chain of "acquaintances", and lets not kid ourselves, big guys in the business know this and use this to their advantage. So do little guys, to gain the advantage of the big guys. It doesn't mean that all big guys do it. It doesn't mean that all little guys do it. But it's there. And it will be that way. And this is nothing new at all, and not exclusive to Hollywood either.
You (and many people) take all this too one-sidedly. The world in not black and white, you know.
Okay, ma'am. I will not dare speaking about such topics in the future. And in case I'm not sure whether I am allowed to, I will seek your direct permission.
