(Anonymous) 2018-07-31 02:27 am (UTC)(link)She made a reference to dance lessons that came out of nowhere, and it's like, weren't you homeless at that time? But you were also taking dance lessons? And who was paying for them if you were broke?
Maybe her father (despite how poorly he treated her) because he seemed to be a millionaire. He bought a house but it's not clear that he had a job.
She mostly seemed annoyed at Harvey Weinstein's assault because he was so fat and ugly and she found him repulsive. It took her pages and pages until she mentioned - in passing - that this was a man who held professional power over her and he wasn't just some random dude.
Her reaction was to get a lawyer. She said a "criminal" lawyer, which makes no sense, because she wasn't the one who committed the crime. This supposed "criminal" lawyer said she wouldn't win (a lawsuit? not clear) because she'd done love scenes in movies and that meant she wasn't a credible witness. (What????)
She was all upset that nobody would get behind her. But then when the head of her management company told her that he'd back her, suddenly she got cold feet and was like, but what would be in it for me if I did that?
WOW. She didn't report Weinstein to the police. She wouldn't take up this other lawyer's offer of backing because she didn't think it would benefit her enough? And she dares to accuse other people of being complicit? She was complicit too.

(Anonymous) 2018-07-31 03:30 am (UTC)(link)For the record, accusing a rape victim of being complicit because they didn't go to the police is cruel. Rose may have issues, but if you think it's simple to do the right thing and not have your name dragged through the mud, and possibly your entire career torpedoed, then I hope we all one day have your courage.
Re: OP
(Anonymous) 2018-07-31 03:49 am (UTC)(link)Because all their posts are victim-blaming garbage.
OP, you are a shitty person. And you should be ashamed of yourself.

Re: OP
(Anonymous) 2018-07-31 03:57 am (UTC)(link)So yeah, I understand what you're saying, OP. I haven't read the book, but I've seen the same things cropping up in her interviews.
Re: OP
(Anonymous) 2018-07-31 04:43 am (UTC)(link)Also, I'm kind of disgusted that you're blaming an assault victim for not pressing a case when she's been given professional advice that she's not going to be seen as credible, and then not wanting to drag other people into it.
I do think McGowan has some mental health issues and I hope she gets help, but you seem like a nasty piece of work yourself.
