Sexist things that have happened so far at the Oscars

callingoutsexists:

In the “we saw your boobs” video, watch for the reactions of Charlize Theron and Naomi Watts. They look disgusted and upset. They look like they feel violated. I know I would feel that way. They put all of this work and emotion into these movies, which were supposed to be pieces of art, and instead the reaction they get is “HAHA I saw your boobies!”

And fuck Seth McFarlane for sexualizing NINE YEAR OLD CHILD who made an amazing movie, did such a good job that she became the youngest person to EVER be nominated for an Oscar, went to this exciting awards show, and got turned into a sex object by this disgusting rich white man. 

Quvenzhané Wallis should win all the awards for being way more mature and poised and awesome at NINE YEARS OLD than any of these so-called ‘adults’

I don’t care for seth mcfarlane but those reactions were a part of the prerecorded joke. I feel it’s disingenuous to erase that they decided to participate in a boob joke and now they are people held up ad victims of seth mcfarlane’s.

More on this later, with regards to Quvenzhane if i get my thoughts together.

Reblogging again for comment because this is true.  Also I’m astonished at Charlize Theron and Naomi Watts.

marvelade: “It’s so bizarre to me because, I work with a lot of men and then I do these press tours with them and nobody ever looks at Chris Hemsworth and goes, ‘Wow, you play such a strong guy in Thor!’ Nobody does that, you know what I mean? But when we are conflicted and we play characters that find themselves in circumstances where we have to to find our strenght or just something in order to survive, like all of a sudden we are such strong women.” — Charlize Theron on playing strong women charlize needs to stop she is just exploding all over my heart and it just came out of nowhere.
