No, they are looking for a pretty young thing to pump up their ego and get their jollies. At most, you may get some good stories out of it or some nice dinners. If that’s not what you are looking for, say no and move along. If the mentor pressured her into it, and then froze her out, I think the mentor is the worst one here.
But yes, he’s sleazy she gross. Not super impressed with Maggie who strikes me as not that great an actress and very full of herself. But she should have told this girl “Look, you’re an adult and can make your own decisions but I hope you know my brother is using you and you should tell him to f— off if you’re not using him too.”
Maggie Gyllenhaal is not responsible for her brother’s behavior. Can we please not indulge this incredibly sexist and tired routine of blaming women for the bad behavior of men?
