SO happy to hear there is a MAN courageous enough to talk about how Toxic Male Behavior is destructive to our world. While promoting his new film The Beloved, Javier Bardem pointed out that his movie is focused on male aggression, and he agrees that it is a growing problem. He added that toxic male behavior extends to world leaders – US President Donald Trump, Russia’s Vladimir Putin, and Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu. Javier believes that “aggression and rivalry” are what fuels the conflicts in Ukraine and The Middle East. And we have to agree. Did you know that 95% of criminals in prison are MALE? Why aren’t more people talking about this?
JAVIER BARDEM CRITICIZES WORLD LEADERS: TOXIC MALE BEHAVIOR

Bardem’s pontification about toxic males is disingenuous; he supported Woody Allen and Johnny Depp when they were accused of sexual and physical abuse, respectively. These accusations carried more evidence than those leveled at Netanyahu so lumping him with Trump and Putin is questionable. Where is Bardem’s condemnation of toxic male killers like Sinwar? Khamenei? Nasrallah? There goes my escape to your blog to distract from all the evil happening worldwide and from the ill informed, biased actors’ political agendas 😕

Aside from being antisemitic, he’s a hypocrite; he supported 2 toxic males: Depp and W. Allen.

If you look at the past 25+ years of school shootings, public mass shootings of every kind, home shootings, etc…these are well over 90% males.
A few recent have been trans so naturally people are up in arms over “trans violence”…
Our country is awash in male gun violence and they refuse to look at their issues. I am fine with the Second Amendment but truthfully, we would be much safer if only women were allowed to be armed. At least until men significantly lower their levels of violence.

He’s an antisemite he’s a raging antisemite and I hope he doesn’t get another job! 🇮🇱

Why aren’t more people talking about his virulent antisemitism? May he never work in show business again.
Vee
100% Anon. Janet, I come to your blog for your wonderful coverage of all things entertainment. This offers an escape from what is going on in the world. I am not interested in the political viewpoints from actors, especially someone like Bardem who said crickets about the genocides of civilians in Iran and in Sudan; just another attention-seeking ignoramus.

What makes him anti semetic?
Vee
That’s antisemitic not anti semetic. Just google your question but make sure to get the spelling right….

There are approximately 85,000 to 88,000 women in state and federal prisons across the United States. Nationwide, women make up roughly 10% to 11% of the total incarcerated population, though their numbers have been rising faster than the male prison population in recent years. Many women are capable of hideous criminality.

Wrong.

Long-term growth: The female prison population has grown dramatically since 1980 — by over 600% (from ~26,300 in 1980 to ~186,000+ by 2023 across prisons and jails). Women’s incarceration grew about twice as fast as men’s during the mass incarceration era.
Janet Charlton
Women still make up around 5% of prisoners
Mary Bergson- Retired Police Sgt.
Wrong. Women make up at least 10%. Women can be vicious and devious criminals. Women and their crimes are in the news daily . Teachers sleeping with underage students, women committing murder and serial liars like Amanda Knox . Women selling illicit drugs like those that killed Matthew Perry. Women launching frivolous lawsuits like Blake Lively. Women are Humans and all humans have a dark side.
