I was invited to participate in an extremely important panel about the #metoo movement during the Stockholm International Film Festival. We had a lot to say during the hour we talked. I think enough men has spoken, I rather see men listen then speaking up to be honest. I write and talk about the subject quite a lot and I believe more men need to step up their game and think before they speak. How would it be to see men joining the conversations by just being in the audience. Of course, men are also affected and are most definitely being abused on set as well but if you ask me, that is a discussion for another day. Let's focus on Women in film, music, stores, fashion, medicine and all the other millions of women working and being constantly pushed around. I also talked about this earlier in the year, find more about that here.
