So, Murder She Wrote's Angela Lansbury just deviated from the celebrity norm. The girls at The View won't be happy.......

Angela Lansbury: Women must 'sometimes take blame' for sexual harassment

Twitter users weren’t expecting this when Angela Lansbury‘s name began trending on Tuesday: the Murder, She Wrote star made controversial claims to Radio Times about how “there are two sides to this coin” of sexual harassment.

“We have to own up to the fact that women, since time immemorial, have gone out of their way to make themselves attractive,” the 92-year-old said (via The Telegraph). “And unfortunately it has backfired on us — and this is where we are today.”

“We must sometimes take blame, women. I really do think that,” she added. “Although it’s awful to say we can’t make ourselves look as attractive as possible without being knocked down and raped.”

Lansbury emphasized for the article that blame should not be placed on the victims of harassment or assault, but a backlash has already begun brewing across social media in light of her statements. BBC World journalist Julia Macfarlane also shared a photo of the printed piece from Radio Times.

Ouch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What is this" Ouch Business"? A coin has always had 2 sides, it is only in this decade that some have become propagandized and convinced it is otherwise. If we ALL ran around in our underwear there would be no problem and not different enough, to be considered alluring, and special , you'd probably have to start wearing clothes! :D

I know it's a shock.

Just saying - the Left (especially) doesn't like the two-sides of the coin argument. That's all. Look, for example at Matt Lauer. He's gone because of something he (allegedly) did a few years ago. But, even before that (alleged) act, there were other acts that NBC ignored or swept under the rug.......

Matt Lauer fired from 'Today' due to 'inappropriate sexual behavior' in the workplace

On the same day the giant Christmas tree is being lit outside NBC studios at Rockefeller Center in New York City, the network dumped one of its biggest stars.

“Today” show co-host Matt Lauer was fired Wednesday due to inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace, an incident "Today" honchos said they learned about just two days ago.

Lauer's stunned co-anchor Savannah Guthrie was joined by Hoda Kotb to announce the news on "Today."

"This is a sad morning here at 'Today' and at NBC News," Guthrie said before reading a note from NBC News Chairman Andy Lack.

Matt Lauer has been terminated from NBC News. On Monday night, we received a detailed complaint from a colleague about inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace by Matt Lauer. As a result, we’ve decided to terminate his employment.

Lauer (allegedly) repeatedly "assaulted" Katie Couric (pinching her butt) and NBC ignored her complaints.

All I'm saying is that, when its the Left "investigating" the Right and their foibles, it's OK, and we must accept THEIR view, but when the shoe's on the other foot, we're all supposed to make (and accept) excuses. Like with Senator Conyers walking around in his underwear ("He's old!!!!!). If that's the Left's version of "he's exhibiting signs of dementia", then he should be in a nursing home, not Congress.....
