For Harvey Weinstein Magnetism can’t be Bought
Sexual harassment allegations of Harvey Weinstein represent everything that’s wrong with masculine perceptions of power in Hollywood—and dare I say some men! As father, husband, and business partner of dynamic women I’m enraged! Julia Boorstin’s description of The Weinstein Company co-owner as “…gross and offensive…” makes my skin crawl when thinking of my daughter or nieces facing such repulsive conduct when aspiring to achieve. During my time in media production I met men like him but never supposed that such behaviors still occurred. Sadly for Harvey Weinstein animal magnetism can never be bought or fabricated. But personality, grace, and charm can always win in its place. Time to end casting couch mentality and advance human dignity through self-empowerment.
