Fashion designer Donna Karan came out in defense of Harvey Weinstein today, saying that women in Hollywood were “asking” for trouble. A couple of points. If women are “asking” for it, they’re not asking me and apparently, women can be just as ignorant as men. Weinstein is everything I hate about Hollywood, and ironically, many of his productions extolled the very virtues I admire. But the lesson here is one for both Karan and Weinstein; talk all you want but you’re defined by your actions. And with that as a litmus test, you’re both assholes.
