The traditional way of getting actresses in particular to disrobe on-set was by use of the casting couch in the way Harvey Weinstein was imprisoned for. So when Weinstein went to jail, a lot of directors saw the writing on the wall and decided that wasn't going to be in their movies anymore.

It is somewhat weird to see fundagelicals allied with at least some portions of feminism, but here we are, and praise God for it.

Aspiring to be a stick in the mud.
