Oh boy, Henry Cavill was interviewed by GQ, and when the topic of #MeToo came into the conversation Cavill didn't mince words and was, by all accounts, a little too honest for today's political spectrum [a Backlash has already happened].
Because GQ is a men's magazine, Cavill's answer was given from a male's perspective and so his worded answer delved into how #MeToo affects men in Hollywood:
“It’s very difficult to do that if there are certain rules in place. Because then it’s like: ‘Well, I don’t want to go up and talk to her, because I’m going to be called a rapist or something’. So you’re like, ‘Forget it, I’m going to call an ex-girlfriend instead, and then just go back to a relationship, which never really worked’. But it’s way safer than casting myself into the fires of hell because I’m someone in the public eye, and if I go and flirt with someone, then who knows what’s going to happen?"
“Now? Now you really can’t pursue someone further than, ‘No’. It’s like, ‘OK, cool’. But then there’s the, ‘Oh why’d you give up?’ And it’s like, ‘Well, because I didn’t want to go to jail?’”
