Yeah but it's different irl
Women practically initiate it, which gives them an unfair advantage over the women that dont.

what do you think?

it's as old as the industry, yes, that's what made all the mock outrage in the media hilarious, pretending they didn't know it was happening.

have sex

Are there women who would whore themselves out to get movie roles? Yes.

Are there male casting agents who know that these women are willing to fuck them for roles and would take advantage of that? Yes.

Put those together and the answer is yes.

I'm a screenwriter and I get sexually propositioned by actresses. I have to explain to them that I'm a nobody and I have absolutely no say over casting.

>be aspiring actress
>offer sex to a big guy in hollywood in exchange for him getting you roles or advocating for you
>get desired roles/success and be financially satisfied for the rest of your life
>stop having sex with director
>if he gets mad and starts stonewalling you, accuse him of rape to extract more $$$
>if he doesn't get mad, live comfortably and act again once or twice if you need the money
rinse and repeat OP of course it's fucking real

>not saying you are not in control of the casting, but will put in a good word for you

the fuck is your problem man

are you gay?

How else can you explain Renee Zellweger being an "it" girl?

Will that get him the role?

This desu, the narrative has been that it's guys pressuring women for roles when in reality it's sluts doing what they do best

This. Harvey Weinstein likely started out just taking women's offers of sex-for-roles as an added perk of his position, but as the Weinstein Company grew bigger and more powerful and it became common knowledge that Harvey will give you a role if you fuck him, it transformed into a requirement for him.

The first girl to offer up sex sets the standard that all the other women have to meet. Lowest-common-denominator theory in action.

It's probably a mixture of both, with each version depending on the situation.

this but i'd bet my yearly salary that this all started by a woman propositioning sex to weinstein to get into his good graces

What roles were completely obvious casting couch decisions? I'll start.
>Rooney Mara in The Social Network

It has been known.

Not likely. The Mara sisters are more of a productive of nepotism. Their family are NFL royalty.

I'm a femanon
Does that make it even hotter?

What a twist!

Yes. In the older days actresses would write D.R.R (Director's rights respected) on their headshots meaning they would have sex with the director if cast. Since then it has become much less official but it sill happens.

do you think harvey has a vault full of casting tapes? will they ever leak?

only after he dies, otherwise he would get scorched earth levels of lawsuits & criminal charges. but I'm sure he recorded some of it, he is in the movie industry.

Probably one of the realest things in or about Hollywood.

an MGM producer whipped his dick out for 12 year old shirley temple in 1940, what makes you think it doesn't exist?

NOT ROONEY!

I can't tell for sure in the US but here in Mexico is 100% real.

if only you knew how bad things were

Is it just me or does that couch seem too wide to only have two sets of legs to support it

OY VEY GOY THAT'S MERELY A TROPE
