Hollyweird: Louis C.K. next up on the firing line

[Lord Commander Palis]

The kid stays in the picture.

In the meantime, you might want to examine why this incident makes you feel like you've won something.

Nice sick freak in your AV.

 

[deltapapha]

Am I a bad guy because this makes him more funny to me?

I mean, he plays this awkward loser character, then gets busted for the most awkward loserey sexual predator behavior....

As long as he doesn't touch any of the women he's coerced into watching him yank he's good right? Cause then he would be like Trump.

 

[Rav1nHunter]

So much yellow on the front page

 

[ryan3434]

I’ve never had the urge to masterbate in front of a woman. I don’t I understand it.

I do it all the time in front on the wife... Shes just never awake to see me doing it or more specifically watching the porn on my phone while im doing it.

 

[uppercutbus]

So much yellow on the front page

machida era joe

 

[cottagecheesefan]

I thought it was well known that he is a pervy piece of shit.

 

[Trotsky]

You've never met a woman who liked watching that?

Nope, I honestly have not

 

[KantoTerror]

I have a feeling when this happened. Those girls laughed it with him and in light of all this sexual harrassment coming out left and right....well...this could be the chance to make a name for themselves...

 

[rokzilla]

What a silly idea, most the coolest cats in HS tended to become losers after. The nerds tended to go to better schools and end up with quality careers. The chick that chased the QB ended up chasing the money. In the end, the nerd often wins lol, such a silly rationalization. Nobody wants an uncle Rico.


Just odd you try to blame Hollywood for what's a national issue.

Yeah. I don’t think you know what a real Alpha male is.

 

[Rockapotomuss]

Is anyone else not surprised and not offended that Louis C.K. masturbates in public?

 

[blaseblah]

I’m not sure how anyone can remember something from 2002 in Rapetown anyways. Between Cosby sleeping half the female population and all the drugs and alcohol.

This sexual misconduct is going to cross a line soon, people won’t even be able to look at another person without their life long career being destroyed. It’s going to be a very boring dating scene unless you’re a Tinder (or whatever flavor) type.

Repeatedly asking to masturbate in front of multiple people is some real repressed shit though.

What happened to just asking females on a date the normal way? I don't think that's ever going to go away.

 

[blaseblah]

I have a feeling when this happened. Those girls laughed it with him and in light of all this sexual harrassment coming out left and right....well...this could be the chance to make a name for themselves...

Should read the full story. They complained about him immediately after the fact to others and were told by his manager to be quiet. A guy that could essentially blackball them from comedy.

That's probably overstating his power a wee bit.

So he's the first person to actually admit to it ..

Louis C.K. Responds to Accusations: ‘These Stories Are True’
November 10, 2017

Louis C.K. on Friday released a statement in response to a report published Thursday in The New York Times about several women who stepped forward to discuss experiences with him in which he committed acts of sexual misconduct. In his statement, Louis C.K. said, “These stories are true.”

The complete statement from Louis C.K. appears below:

I want to address the stories told to The New York Times by five women named Abby, Rebecca, Dana, Julia who felt able to name themselves and one who did not.

These stories are true. At the time, I said to myself that what I did was O.K. because I never showed a woman my dick without asking first, which is also true. But what I learned later in life, too late, is that when you have power over another person, asking them to look at your dick isn’t a question. It’s a predicament for them. The power I had over these women is that they admired me. And I wielded that power irresponsibly. I have been remorseful of my actions. And I’ve tried to learn from them. And run from them. Now I’m aware of the extent of the impact of my actions. I learned yesterday the extent to which I left these women who admired me feeling badly about themselves and cautious around other men who would never have put them in that position. I also took advantage of the fact that I was widely admired in my and their community, which disabled them from sharing their story and brought hardship to them when they tried because people who look up to me didn’t want to hear it. I didn’t think that I was doing any of that because my position allowed me not to think about it. There is nothing about this that I forgive myself for. And I have to reconcile it with who I am. Which is nothing compared to the task I left them with. I wish I had reacted to their admiration of me by being a good example to them as a man and given them some guidance as a comedian, including because I admired their work.

The hardest regret to live with is what you’ve done to hurt someone else. And I can hardly wrap my head around the scope of hurt I brought on them. I’d be remiss to exclude the hurt that I’ve brought on people who I work with and have worked with who’s professional and personal lives have been impacted by all of this, including projects currently in production: the cast and crew of Better Things, Baskets, The Cops, One Mississippi, and I Love You, Daddy. I deeply regret that this has brought negative attention to my manager Dave Becky who only tried to mediate a situation that I caused. I’ve brought anguish and hardship to the people at FX who have given me so much The Orchard who took a chance on my movie. and every other entity that has bet on me through the years. I’ve brought pain to my family, my friends, my children and their mother.

I have spent my long and lucky career talking and saying anything I want. I will now step back and take a long time to listen. Thank you for reading.

Well that sounds more like Sexual Misconduct not Sexual harrasments anyway.
I still don't understand why all those guys take their dicks out so often or masturbate in front of women?
I mean just hire hookers like Tiger Woods. His choices seem a lot smarter now.

But in this case sounds like a "2nd chance" is in order. I mean at least his career shouldn't be ruined by it.

He's a very clever dude. He did this the right way by not minimizing or denying etc, but it's also done in a way that is going to make him look good. I have no doubt that he chose those words after thinking about the current environment and how his statement positions himself, rather than from a desire to come out with true simple statements. I'm not giving him good guy credit for that statement, because game recognize game.

 

[godking]

He also is not being accused of violent rape or child sodomy. Those guys would be looking at serious prison time.

True,

But he could have kept denying it even though his actions are "mild" compared to Weinstein and Spacey.

His carreer is probably over.

I will give him a modicum of respect for coming clean and admitting what he did regardless of the cost.
