I like the stuff I’ve seen him in and I can see where he’s coming from. He’s scared of his life being taken away because he’s famous. Isn’t this what people have wanted for ages? Men to feel the fear women do when dealing with the opposite gender?
That's...not what it's about. It's about women no longer accepting men feeling entitled to our bodies or time, and standing up to the harassment we face on a daily basis. Henry Cavill is saying he rather go back to a bad relationship than take a second of his time to ask himself if his advances are making a woman uncomfortable. There's a huge difference between 'romancing' a woman and harassing her and if you cant be bothered to spot the difference, you're a piece of shit.

I’m totally with anon here. I always found him to be too bland to pay attention to, but sucks to find out that he’s pretty dumb, too. What do you do with men like this? I avoid stupid, but honestly, do they need more education? Retraining? What’s going on?
Men have always acted like this, they're just reeling from the pushback, and instead of taking a second to do some self reflecting, they're running around and reaching so they can somehow play victim. 'I can't say hello' translates to: 'I don't want to change my behavior or learn how to spot whether I'm making someone uncomfortable and that makes me angry.' Keep standing up for the #metoo movement, keep standing up to unacceptable behavior, and keep shutting down these mental gymnastics.

I guess I know what he is trying to say, but... Dude, if THAT'S the first thing you think of when women speak up about their issues then... Yeah, maybe you shouldn't date.
Mmhmmm. I get it, he's famous, there's a potential for exploitation there, but if you choose to use that fame to diminish or derail the #metoo movement, you're showing yourself.

Some men don't understand basics rules like yes you can flirt with a woman but if she says no, you stop! End of the story! It's not so hard to understand. It's easy to see he difference between a woman who likes to flirt and a woman who is uncomfortable.
Right? But it’s not really about flirting or saying hello, is it? it’s about refusing to change behaviors and recognize patterns that are harassing in nature.
