    Default Weinstein lawyers claim actress Judd made sexual 'deal' with disgraced mogul

    It's just prostitution by these bimbos and everybody knows it. They went to harvey and said - I'll do this for you if you get me some good movie roles.

    http://m.france24.com/en/20180719-we...isgraced-mogul

    july 19 2018 Harvey Weinstein's lawyers are calling on a US judge to dismiss a lawsuit from actress Ashley Judd -- who accuses the disgraced mogul of torpedoing her career -- on the grounds that she had made a sexual "deal" with him.

    The 50-year-old actress says the once-influential Hollywood producer sabotaged her career by convincing Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson not to cast Judd after she rejected Weinstein's sexual advances.

    Weinstein fell from grace after scores of women came forward with allegations against him ranging from harassment to rape.

    But in a motion filed Tuesday in a Los Angeles court, Weinstein's defense team insisted Judd had struck a "deal" with Weinstein allowing him to touch her if she "won an Academy Award in one of his films."

    Weinstein's attorneys claim the ex-movie mogul then "attempted to live up to his part of the bargain" by working to cast Judd in "as many roles as possible" -- including opposite Matt Damon in Good Will Hunting, a role for which Minnie Driver ultimately won an Oscar nomination.

    His action "reflects his motivation to advance her career, not ruin it" and undermines Judd's "defamation claim (as well as her retaliation claim) in its entirety," the court documents say.

    I have a question.

    Is it OK for women to use their sexuality to get men to pay for things like Dinner, Movie, Dancing, etc ? Is this 'ethically' permissible? Is this 'possible sex' simply a lure to get men to do a woman's bidding?

    Now, conversely, is it OK for a man to use his position of power to get women to do things for him? In this case, is 'possible movie role' simply a lure to get women to do a man's bidding?

    It's prostitution and it's as old as history. Feminists call it harrassment but that's BS.

    "Quid Pro Quo". 'noun
    a favor or advantage granted or expected in return for something.'

    I was just wondering if anybody saw a relationship in 'powerful men using their position to get 'something' from women' ...and
    'women (because of their sexuality) using their position to get 'something' (like a Dinner/Dancing/Movie) from men'?

    And ... if there is a relationship between the two ... are they both 'ethical', or are they both viewed as being 'wrong'?

    Whether you want to call it right or wrong is irrelevant. The point is both sides agreed to a deal. He's just buying what she's selling.

    Your experience with accessing sexual partners may not necessarily be universal to all of humanity.

    Let's assume that this argument is the truth. As is always the case, it is illegal/unethical for both parties to engage in this behavior. Judd isn't supposed to offer sexual favours, and Weinstein is supposed to refrain from accepting them. That being said, your hero is going down because he committed loads of sexual assaults, regardless of how testimony over Judd plays out.

    Well, that is what my question was.

    Is it 'right' for a woman to string a man along with the possibility of sex, in return for the man taking her out and paying for things?

    Is it 'right' for Weinstein to string a woman along with the possibility of an acting role, in return for some kind of sexual favor?

    The casting couch is as old as Hollywood and probably a lot older.

    I doubt if it would be any different if Hollywood was run by women.
