It has always seemed to me that Ms. McGowan has known about the voyeurism for a long time.
I supported Dr. Ford; I cussed out everyone from President Trump to Sarah Huckabee Sanders. I support Tara Reade, also.
As for the media supporting "blondes," that's ridiculous. If by "blonde," she means "white," and if by "loves," she means "gives marginally more credence to white women than to everyone else," that's true but I think it's less true than it used to be. I also think that what hasn't changed is that women who do not conform to conventional standards of beauty have even more difficulty accessing belief and help than women who do. Ms. Reade's understanding of that is probably why her profile picture is from her youth.
Every apartment that I have had in Massachusetts since 2013 has been possible because of Section 8. My being a Section 8 tenant has also made me vulnerable to abuse in these apartments, discrimination from the police, and guaranteed loss in retaliatory eviction cases brought against me for objecting to the violations of my privacy rights. I tried to get a lawyer from Legal Aid to stop my last eviction; she assumed that I was paranoid and she took the property management's side, which is what a lot of advocates and agencies that are supposed to help impoverished people do when impoverished people tell them about conflict with a wealthier person or any kind of organization. I didn't continue to try to work with her and I defended my own case, and I lost. Not only has the media not "loved" me, many media sources have viciously participated in the abuse, as I have previously discussed.
