Okay it took me 4 seconds to Google “Lupita New York Times.” Sorry your device doesn’t have that capacity. Here you go:

So weird. He told her to come to his bedroom at his house so he could massage her. She didn't want to, but instead of saying no and leaving she offered to give him a massage instead...and that was seemingly fine until he took off his pants.

Did he abuse his power? Yes. But that was apparently very easy since many women were seemingly okay with crossing uncomfortable lines in order to curry favor and hopefully land a role. That doesn't make what he did right, but it certainly makes you wonder why these women went along with this. Lupita's situation and many of the others are obviously different from the reported incidents of actual rape. Lupita's situation wasn't rape...she offered to give him a massage.

I understand the power differential, but she and many others had a choice. They picked career opportunities with Weinstein instead of protecting their morals. [/quote]
