Who has said that women 'spread their legs' for Weinstein movie roles and 'it's too late now to start whingeing' re MeToo.

What a complete let down.

Agree with Greer.

Choosing to sleep with someone for gain is prostitution. They chose to sleep with someone for a role arguably they shouldn't have had too and that is wrong but I agree with Germaine saying they had the choice and they chose the role

What she said was

"If you spread your legs because he said 'be nice to me and I'll give you a job in a movie' then I'm afraid that's tantamount to consent, and it's too late now to start whingeing about that,"

I agree with her.

Prostitution is not rape. If someone decides to exchange sex for goods or services then they are not raped. If they were free to leave or say no at any point they have not been raped.

Greer speaks the truth.
