I don’t think I’m victim blaming at all. I said clearly she was a victim. But know the specifics of a case helps us not judge wholly based on assumptions. She does have financial means, I know she is from a background of more than decent means (her father a professor and mother a painter in London where she grew up) and I know she already had a lucrative career in modeling. She was not some poor girl off the street stepping blindly into the world of international high end modeling fresh off the plane from Britain, where she is from. She is also an actor and was in a movie with Ben Affleck (Gone Girl) shot in 2013 sand released in 2014) where she plays a ingenue, Ben Affleck’s mistress, or pretends to play an innocent girl taken advantage of by Mr. Affleck’s character only to find later in the movie that it was just an act, she wasn’t so innocent. In fact, art seems to imitate life. She did have an agent with Ford Models, one of the biggest and most prestigious agencies for models, started modeling at 14. The female director should not have tolerated Mr. Thicke’s abusive physical fondling. She should have spoke out and she does not the pressure of being a female director. I am not being disingenuous, but I am trying to wade into this grey area while also clearly saying that she was a victim, and also acted in a movie at the same time where she played this same role she is playing now in promoting her book. Good for her she can raise the issue for us, but that doesn’t mean she should completely get a free pass. Her career has done fine, it has not been destroyed, as other women in the past had seen career’s destroyed, and I still wish her well for raising the issue, even though she profits financially from it. Mr. Thicke’s career took a noticeable nosedive and he lost a lawsuit of plagiarizing the song, lost millions, a rare thing in the music industry to lose even though law suits are common. In a way there has been justice.
