One-time feminist firebrand turned anti-feminist troll Germaine Greer has lashed out at the #MeToo movement, claiming the women accusing Harvey Weinstein of rape and assault “spread their legs” for parts in movies and are now “whinging” about it. “In the old days, there were movies – the Carry On comedies, for example – which always had a man leering after women. Germaine Greer lashing out at other women is, sadly, hardly headline news anymore: in 2012, she refused to apologise for saying Julia Gillard had a “big arse”. She has also said trans women weren’t “real women”. Full horror highlights of that Germaine Greer interview:* Dylan Farrow should stop going after Woody Allen for abusing her.
