You know I don‘t care if he‘s going to rot in his jail cell. All I care is about, is how he tried to push the name of the gay community into the mud by pulling his sexuality as some sort of excuse. We have absolutely nothing to do with your disgusting actions.

I'm so pissed that Kevin Spacey tied in his apology for the sexual assault with his announcement of being gay. I don't want to be associated with this trash. 

And it is SO problematic as well. Conservative people have always linked homosexuality with pedophilia and sexual assault, he's willingly giving arch-conservative nutjobs ammunition about "Hollywood's homosexual pedophilia propaganda".

TBH, I don't think that many or even few people are going to make a connection between him being gay and a pedophile. I'm gay, and I understand there's a lot of prejudice, but I don't think many people make that link anymore, in my eyes at least.

My own father won't let me play with my 10 year old cousin at family gatherings without watching us. If she wants to go to the game room to play pool with me, he makes an excuse to come with us (he doesn't even play with us, he just watches and drinks). If she wants to play the piano, he follows us. On top of all of this, my father votes Liberal. This isn't a super conservative man, this is an alleged progressive man. 

It doesn't reinforce a conscious connection, but rather a more subtle one. A connection where they won't actively equate being gay with being a pedophile, but if they hear a gay man turned out to be a pedophile, they wouldn't be surprised. Or vice versa. Its kinda like how its unsurprising that a lot of mass murders have a mental disorder, but we know that doesn't mean just because someone has a mental disorder that they're gonna be dangerous. We do, as a precaution, keep an eye on people with known mental illness though, even if just subconsciously.

All of this coming out of the woodwork and rightfully so :omg: I’m glad that people who’ve suffered in silence for all this time are having the courage to speak up about it now, that’s very big of them and we need more people to know that it’s okay to speak about these things and it’s very important in bringing others to justice so it doesn’t spread and make more victims :applause: 

I agree, I think it's also important to highlight that this is not just a straight issue. Maybe something good can come out of this, there is a taboo among men to talk about being abused. It's bad for women too, don't get me wrong, but men have that bs masculinity ideal too. It's really hard for them to speak up about these issues, maybe the Spacey thing will inspire others to come forward and talk about it, bottling it up does no good. We need to get all of this sh*t out in the light.

I'd like to also add that Spacey also harrassed a female co-worker in 2003.
