While there are many strong women who have come forward for the #MeToo movement to call out the rampant sexual assault across industries - actor Terry Crews has reminded people that this is an issue that crosses gender lines. However, despite bravely sharing his story and Capitol Hill testimony against talent Adam Venit, many of his male industry peers have responded by mocking the incident.
Refusing to be shamed, Crews has responded to the toxic masculinity with eloquent responses educating people on the reality that not just women, but men also face every day. According to the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network, 1 out of every 10 rape victims in the U.S are male.
Many men in the entertainment industry have mocked Terry Crews for his sexual assault allegation. Among them are rapper 50 cent
