A Fan Groped Harry Styles At A Concert & It's Not OK

Is the rest of the world finally deciding to care about men getting assaulted in public? 5 years ago no one gave a shit that Justin Bieber was sexually harassed on stage by Jenny McCarthy. Every news station around was getting her to talk about how it was empowering for her. I remember seeing the look of disbelief on his face as he looks out at the crowd who was cheering her on.

Edit: last time this came up I looked up an interview with McCarthy about it and found this

“I kind of molested him,” Jenny continued. “Then I decided to turn his neck around and bite his neck a little bit.”

And Jenny’s accosting didn’t stop with the singer’s neck.

“And then as he turned around I grabbed his butt a little bit,” Jenny continued.

“A cougar fantasy maybe,” she admitted.

On Monday, Pitbull, who appeared on Access Hollywood Live, told Billy Bush and Kit Hoover that he’d welcome some similar attention from the blonde bombshell.

“I wish Jenny McCarthy would have touched me like that,” he quipped."

The 'best' part of this article is how it makes a point of saying men get assaulted too and how it's "not a gendered issue" before closing with a link to a feminist rape-crisis center that refuses men.

I DISTINCTLY remember him being openly laughed at for saying it too. Women jeered him the the most disgusting ways.

Interesting how few headlines were generated by this event, compared to every single claim made by z list female celebs generating miles of footage, despite the fact the abuse here was caught ON CAMERA, whilst their claims were just allegations....

it reminds me of when Iggy Azalea said she stopped crowd surfing and wore tights under her outfits because women were always trying to finger her.

Correction: its as okay as it would be to do to a woman singer. Unless people want to be unegalitarian.

Reminds me of when I was working at a Shawn Mendes concert and all these underage girls were screaming “take it off” and I am sure as hell if he was within arms reach these kids would have actually tried to take it off for him.

This is ridiculous and as usual we're seeing none of the outrage that we'd see if someone grabbed a female singer like this. Shocking.

But to add some levity to this depressing matter, I can't help but post the angry Scottish(?) girl ranting about a blog dedicated to killing Harry Styles:

Look, I’m going to say the same thing about this situation like I’ve been saying about the Hollywood sexual harassment claims.

This is an oxymoron. You cannot create and be in an industry the sexualizes everything and then get upset when that sexualization goes too far.

Suing people, firing people, yelling at people on Twitter. None of that is going to make any difference. The only way to stop this is to get rid of the industry, and since people want to keep it, it will never go away. It will never stop.

It’s like demanding to be a sex symbol and then complaining once you are one. If you don’t like it, don’t be a sex symbol.

My mind and heart say that was fucking weird on McCathy's part, and unprofessional & unethical, but my dick is saying if it was me I'd have said fuck the award and gone and fucked the shit out of McCathy, goddamn Admiral (my penis) is a traitor.
