So I just watched Carrie Fletcher’s “controversial” interview and all I am seeing is a bunch of people who have either grown up to take the media’s way of taking quotes out of context as truth or have grown up taking bits and pieces of things instead of viewing it all. Like when someone responds to one question of an email rather than the whole email.
Unfortunately the young generations today do not grasp the entire picture and choose bits and pieces of information. And they hold on to that information so tightly that nothing you can say can change their mind.
I listened to the interview twice and could not find anything wrong with it. However, upon re-listening to phrases out of context, I could see the problem.
It is unfortunate that people no longer grasp the whole picture before attacking and refuse to grasp the whole picture for fear of being wrong.
What was Carrie Fletcher talking about? To sum up that little segment, she basically said if you’re young and in a relationship you’re completely unsure of and you are being pressured into something you don’t want to do, say no. Keep in mind that it was already established this relationship is one where you two completely trust each other. Does it require some self-respect to say no to people you trust? Yes. Otherwise they’ll walk all over you and not know it. Someone explain to me how all of that was victim blaming? I did not hear her say or mention or imply that if the word ‘no’ had not been said, it’s all your fault. Did you? No.
That’s all I have to say on that matter.
