Watch the clip but in case you don’t want to the summary is this-
Saoirse Ronan was in the Graham Norton show. The other guest who were men were joking about a self defense move one of them learned while training for a movie. Graham says who would even think to do something like that. She responded with “Girls have to think about things like that every day”
The silence was deafening. Kudos to her for speaking up!
I knew what this was going to be from the title. And yeah, the silence and “oh well yes mm hmm” head nodding was both funny and sad. Good for Saiorse for speaking up. That male privilege needed to be pointed out.
I love this! Along the same lines I’ve been seeing women react to Trump saying, “I will protect you”. As in, we don’t need men to protect us! YOU ARE THE PROBLEM! You are the ones who knock!
